✍️ Analysis: For the game between the Pacers and 76ers, we’re betting on Kelly Oubre to score under the points line. The 76ers finally have everyone healthy, and I expect Oubre’s usage rate to drop. He has scored 12+ points in six consecutive games, but I think that streak ends tonight against the Pacers. I expect the team to focus more on other players because Paul George is playing against his former team and has an ideal matchup. Joel Embiid is also back, and he’ll take a significant usage rate since he’s missed several games and will be eager to make an impact. Tyrese Maxey, who already has a higher usage rate than Embiid, will also take priority. This leaves Oubre and Yabusele as the lowest-priority options, and I expect very few points from them, especially in this game. I believe betting on Oubre to score under is the right call, as I don’t see him exceeding 10 points tonight.

01:00 - Allen J. (CLE) +13.5 / Over (1.90) ✍️ Analysis: We’re betting on Jarrett Allen to score over the points line in this matchup against the Wizards, where I expect an excellent performance from Cleveland’s center. Last time we bet on him against Washington, he disappointed us, taking only six shots and staying under the line against the weakest defense. That won’t happen again tonight. Evan Mobley is questionable for the Cavs, but there’s a good chance they won’t risk him in such an easy home game. If Mobley doesn’t play, this is an easy win because Allen has scored 14+ points in 9 of 10 games without Mobley. Even with Mobley, Allen has been great, scoring 13+ points in 11 of 15 games, averaging 15.5 points per game. Tonight, Allen has the perfect matchup because the Wizards are the worst team at defending the center position and pick-and-roll actions, which Allen relies on for most of his scoring. Seventy-five percent of Allen’s points come in the restricted area, where the Wizards allow the third-most points in the league. Allen hasn’t scored 14+ points in six consecutive games, so I expect a strong bounce-back performance tonight. Before this recent slump, he was putting up great numbers (17, 23, 16, 21, 24).

Odd 6.9

Bobby Portis O10.5 Points @ 1.88 (-114) ✅ I am not too sure about you’s but Portis was ridiculously efficient last game against Brooklyn, going 23 points on 9-10 shooting, including 5-5 from deep, along with five rebounds, one assist, three blocks, and one steal in 31 minutes. Long story short - he was everywhere. Middleton’s slowly increasing return naturally limits Portis; however, Portis has always been productive for the Bucks with or without Khris Middleton - and he has always demonstrated consistent performances, averaging 14.2 points, 8.7 rebounds & 0.3 assists with Middleton over the last 3 seasons whilst averaging 15.2 points, 8.9 rebounds & 0.3 assists without Middleton over the last 3 seasons: • ⁠2023-24 Season: 12.3 points, 7.3 rebounds with Middleton; 16.7 points, 7.6 rebounds without Middleton. • ⁠2022-23 Season: 15.4 points, 9.8 rebounds with Middleton; 14.3 points, 9.8 rebounds without Middleton. • ⁠2021-22 Season: 14.8 points, 9.0 rebounds with Middleton; 14.6 points, 9.3 rebounds without Middleton. His effiency last game was to good to ignore, particulary from deep. Given that the Magic rank last in the NBA in three-point percentage allowed at 31.1%, If Portis is even 3 quarters as efficient as he was last game he clears this. Orlando allows an effective field goal percentage of 52.2% (#24 in the league), further highlighting opportunities for Portis to capitalise on open looks and continue with his hot hand - whether or not a thin Orlando hangs around or if Milwaukee has put them to the sword by half time. Smokey bet 💨 Bobby Portis 2+ 3PM & MIL to win @ 3.20 (+220) ✅

🏀Luka Doncic = 16.5+ Over Rebounds+Assists (Team - Dallas Mavericks) He’s only missed this line 2 times against OKC in his career averaging 20.6 RA. He’s now facing a Thunder defense that is allowing the most rebounds to guards this season and the most rebounds in the league overall. Luka is also heavily favored to go over his assist line of 7.5 coming off back to back games where he got 10 and 11 assists with 32 potential assists in that span, he has definitely been looking to contribute as of recently. I know he hasn’t been consistent on his RA line but coming off a game where he got 24, I don’t see how he doesn’t clear this again in a competitive matchup. OKC does pretty well in defending the paint so I’m expecting Luka to have to dish it out frequently to his shooters as well. For the reason that he is favored to go over both lines on all books, I’m liking the upside of his RA line instead. Playing time shouldn’t be an issue for Luka of course it being the NBA Cup Quarter Finals they need him to show out especially with Washington currently questionable and we don’t know if he will be back 100%.
