Giannis Antetokounmpo OVER 31.5 points (-115)

The Bucks had been playing some inconsistent ball that forced them out of the second seed. In that time, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton had injuries, but with both back in the lineup, they’ve won five of the last six.

Speaking of injuries to their stars, that is what the Pelicans are dealing with. They are 3-10 since Zion Williamson has been sidelined with a foot injury and has lost seven straight.

That lack of low post presence will allow Giannis to put up some great numbers. He’s coming in averaging 34.3 points in his last three games, and the Pelicans are allowing a league-worse 67.5 field goal percentage at the rim.

Ja Morant OVER 30,5 points (-115)

With a good portion of their starting lineups sidelined, including Danny Green, Steve Adams, and Desmond Bane, they went from winning 11 straight to losing five in a row.

With Ja Morant as the lone major playmaker, this is one of those plays you make, just on potential volume. Memphis and Indiana are two of the faster-paced teams in the leagues, so we’ll have plenty of possessions for Morant to score.

Bam Adebayo OVER 11.5 rebounds (-115)

The Heat have made a massive turnaround over the last month by going 17-8 over their last 25 games and climbing to the sixth seed. The defense has been this team’s nucleus with the fourth-best Adjusted Defensive Rating.

They’re getting a favorable matchup against the bottom-feeder Hornets, who have lost seven of their last ten.

Bam Adebayo is getting a steep rebound total thrown at him, as it’s set over his season average. The matchup is what makes me believe he’ll surpass it — the Heat lead the league in defensive rebounding while Charlotte is 21st and is allowing the most rebound per game to centers.
