Tari Eason's minutes have been a little inconsistent in the past month, but he's coming off two of his best games of that stretch and is a very good stylistic fit against a Knicks team with size on the wings.

Even with the inconsistent minutes, Eason has averaged 6.3 rebounds per game in March, clearing this total in 12 of 15 games.

Pick: Tari Eason 5+ Rebounds (-135)

Jaxson Hayes Over 6.5 Points (-125)

Action PRO is projecting 9.9 points for Jaxson Hayes in the Lakers' matchup against the Cavaliers tonight, showing a huge 34.2% edge against his current prop line of over/under 6.5, which is good enough to tag the Over with an A+ grade in our system.

Hayes' playing time has been a little bit all over the place this season — but we are going to try to ride the hot hand here. He has scored 8+ points in five straight games, while hitting 10+ points in four of those contests; and getting all the way up to 19+ points in two of them.

The Lakers are playing on the second half of a back-to-back tonight — and while Luka Doncic will be well-rested after missing yesterday's game due to a 1-game suspension, we still expect Los Angeles to lean on its supporting cast for plenty of support in this spot.

Pick: Jaxson Hayes Over 6.5 Points (-125) 


Trail Blazers vs. Clippers Player Prop Bet

This is a big game for the Trail Blazers against the Clippers — one that could determine who gets the 8-seed versus the 9-seed. As such, I'm projecting high minutes for all of the Portland starters — and thus, lower minutes for the reserves.

Robert Williams hasn't cleared this total in the last four games either, as his minutes have been a bit lower — either via blowout, or a similarly scripted close, important game.

Action PRO is projecting 5.6 rebounds for Williams tonight.

Pick: Robert Williams Under 6.5 Rebounds (-105)
