Pistons vs. Cavaliers
Jarrett Allen Over 17.5 Points (-105)
I hopped off the Jarrett Allen train the last time these two teams faced off, and he hung 25 points on Detroit in an overtime loss.
That was without James Harden too.
We hopped back on against Brooklyn, and Allen delivered another 20-point game.
Allen has averaged 20.4 points with a usage rate up near 22% in eight games with Harden.
Pick: Jarrett Allen Over 17.5 Points (-105)
Knicks vs. Raptors
Jakob Poeltl Over 19.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-105)
Collin Murray-Boyles is out again for the Raptors, so Jakob Poeltl should continue to see a heavy role in the frontcourt.
He was inserted into the starting lineup last game, and he was tracking for approximately 30 minutes if not for some 2nd-half foul trouble and a blowout.
Poeltl will be needed against the Knicks frontcourt, and he has cruised over this number in back-to-back games.
Pick: Jakob Poeltl Over 19.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-105)
Thunder vs. Bulls
Cason Wallace Over 23.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-112)
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams, Ajay Mitchell, and Isaiah Hartenstein are all out for the Thunder tonight.
The Thunder draw a highly favorable matchup against the Bulls, and we just saw Cason Wallace's role in these circumstances as the lead guard for the Thunder.
In the three games prior to SGA's return, Wallace averaged 23.3 points, 7.3 assists, and 4.7 rebounds, despite a string of three tough matchups.
At this number, we don't even need a particularly great shooting performance given the volume of his expected role.
Pick: Cason Wallace Over 23.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-112)
Suns vs. Kings
Devin Booker Under 22.5 Points (112)
Action PRO is projecting 21.16 points for Devin Booker in the Suns' matchup against the Kings' tonight, presenting an excellent 18.9% edge against the best prop line in the market (OU 23.5), which is strong enough to tag the Under with an A-grade in our database.
We also like this bet at Under 22.5, which is where most books have this line listed.
Booker is off the injury report and expected to play for the Suns tonight following a four-game absence.
The Suns are positioned 7th in the Western Conference standings, trailing the Lakers by two games for the 6th spot, which would move them out of Play-In Tournament range if they can leapfrog LAL.
So, while we expect the Suns to try hard to win games down the stretch, we also shouldn't expect them to push their stars too hard either, as they comfortably lead the Blazers by six games, who currently reside in the 10th and final Play-In spot — already giving them a very high chance of playing some sort of postseason basketball.
The Suns are double-digit favorites over the Kings in tonight's matchup, so there's also the potential of Booker losing out on some minutes in the second half in the case of a blowout.
There's no making the case for the matchup, as the Kings rank 28th in both defensive rating and points allowed on the season.
However, the situational angle will likely trump the matchup angle here. Our model says take Booker Under 22.5 Points on Tuesday night.
