Giannis Antetokounmpo OVER 30.5 (-118)
The Bucks are looking great again this year, as they’re once again among the East’s top teams. Giannis Antetokounmpo has missed out on the MVP the last two seasons, but he’ll be in the conversation this year as he’s second in points and fifth in rebounds.
He gets a young Orlando team that is struggling and has lost eight straight. This is great for Giannis, who’s hit over his points total in 55.5% of games this season, and matches up with the rookie Paolo Banchero who’s allowing 35.4 points per game to opponents in the paint.
Fred VanFleet OVER 6.5 assists (+114)
The Celtics are more determined to get back to The Finals, and they’re in a great spot as they hold the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference. They’ve been offensively the best, and lead the league in scoring and offensive efficiency.
The Raptors are in a three-way tie for second place in the Atlantic Division, but Boston holds a 6.5-game lead, and they may have to get into the playoffs through a Wild Card.
The Celtics have not been as good on the defensive end. Boston is allowing the fourth-most assists to shooting guards this season, so this is a great pick to take on plus money line.
Kevin Porter Jr. UNDER 4.5 rebounds (+110)
Philadelphia has been winning even with James Harden and Tyrese Maxey on the sidelines. The good news is that it sounds like Harden will return to the lineup.
Just in time for his return to his old stomping grounds in Houston too. After he left, that quickly dismantled that team, and they are rebuilding.
The 76ers are establishing themselves as one of the better defenses in the league. Kevin Porter Jr.’s rebound prop is set just below his 5.7 average, but the 76ers are tough on the glass, allowing the fewest rebounds to shooting guards this season.
