(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Kon Kneuppel 3+ Three-Pointers (-109)
Kon Kneuppel has had a rough time from beyond the arc over the past two games, with only two three-pointers made out of 12 attempts. The Charlotte guard opened the season connecting on 16 out of 30 attempts from above the perimeter through the first four games of the season.
Kneuppel is currently ranked 13th in the league in regards to three-point percentage on at least 30+ attempts to start the season (42.9%) . The sharp-shooting Duke alumni has connected on three shots from above the perimeter in 4-of-6 games, including two contests with five baskets from deep.
Kneuppel faces a Jazz team this afternoon who allow the most three-point attempts 47.0) and makes by the opposition (17.3). The 20-year old is averaging 3.4 three-pointers per game at a 42.9% success rate. We feel that the rookie guard bounces back to form in this contest, and makes at least three baskets from beyond the arc.
Ajay Mitchell Over 18.5 Points + Rebounds (-112)
As if the defending champions, the Oklahoma City Thunder, weren't stacked enough, Ajay Mitchell enters the chat posting 18.5 points each contest off the bench. Mitchell ranks 54th in the league in regards to points scored per game. The OKC guard is on the floor for 10 extra minutes compared to last season (27.2) .
Beyond the 18.5 per game, Mitchell is averaging 3.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists. The 23-year old has exceeded 18.5 points + rebounds in five out of six games - the only time this prop failed at 18.5, Mitchell finished with 18 points and zero rebounds.
The Pelicans allow the fourth-highest amount points and the fifth-highest in regards to rebounds on the season. Mitchell is averaging 29.6 minutes of playing time through the previous five games. As long as the guard for the Thunder is on the floor for at least 27 minutes in this contest, he should be able to surpass 18.5 points + rebounds.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope 4+ Assists (-116)
Ja Morant will be suspended for this contest due to conduct detrimental to the team. This opens the door for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, whom is second in assists for Memphis, with an average of 4.7 per game. Javon Small is admittedly the better option for assists in this contest, however, his assist total is currently unavailable.
Caldwell-Pope has dished out at least four assists in five consecutive games. Despite being on the floor for less than 25 minutes a game, KCP has accumulated 28 assists, with a 27.7% assist percentage.
The Toronto Raptors allow the sixth-highest amount of assists per game with 27.7 each contest. Caldwell-Pope could see a few extra minutes with Ja Morant available. If that stands to be the case, the likelihood of finishing with at least four assists increase even further.
Tyrese Maxey 30+ Points (+106)
We fell short on Friday by four points when Joel Embiid was on the floor with Tyrese Maxey (26) . Embiid will not be available, so we are most certainly going back to the well on this points prop against a Brooklyn Nets team that has failed to crack the win column.
The guard for the Sixers' has scored at least 30 points in the previous three out of five contests, and has played at least 40 minutes in every game. Maxey is shooting 46.8% from beyond the arc on 9.4 attempts per contest. When the 24-year old guard last played Brooklyn last season, he scored 31 points in 43 minutes.
Maxey has scored at least 30 points in five out of the last eight regular-season games played against teams in the Eastern Conference. The Brooklyn Nets allow over 127 points per game on the season, and 124.0 when playing on their own court. Maxey accounts for over 35% of the scoring for Philadelphia on the season.
Evan Mobley Double-Double (-117)
Evan Mobley has recorded two double-doubles in six games played on the season. Mobley is averaging 9.0 per game, yet has increased the amount of boards per game to 10.0 over the previous three games. The center for Cleveland has scored at least 10 points, with 10 rebounds over the last three contests.
The Atlanta Hawks are conceding the third-highest amount of rebounds through six games, allowing 49.3 each contest. Mobley owns a rebound percentage of 18.47%, and has the led the team in boards in five out of six games.
Mobley has successfully recorded a double-double in the previous five consecutive contests against Atlanta. The Cleveland center is averaging 19.4 points, with 13.6 rebounds over that span.
