Wednesday’s Best NBA PrizePicks Bets
Here are the best PrizePicks plays for NBA action on Wednesday, March 15.
*Note* All plays have been written the night prior.
Bam Adebayo Over 8.5 Rebounds
This has been a “system play” for yours truly. It’s the fourth time I’ve featured a Center’s rebounds against the Memphis Grizzlies, and it’s for a good reason. Over the past month and a half Centers have continually surpassed this line without Steven Adams available.
- Domantis Sabonis 10
- Draymond Green 13
- Rudy Gobert 13
- Myles Turner 4 (early foul trouble)
- Drew Eubanks 11 (24 minutes)
- Jarrett Allen 11 & Evan Mobley 14
- Precious Achiuwa 7 & Chris Boucher 10
- Nikola Vucevic 17
- Rudy Gobert 10
- Robert Williams III 16
- Kelly Olynk 14 & Walker Kessler 14
- Joel Embiid 19
- Nikola Jokic 13
- Anthony Davis 19
- Alperen Sengun 8
- Nikola Jokic 18
- Mason Plumlee 9 & Ivica Zubac 9
- Anthony Davis 22
- Draymond Green 5
- Dwight Powell 5 (19 minutes) & 5 (17 minutes)
The Grizzlies are simply the gift that keeps on giving off the glass. Until they prove they can prevent this from happening otherwise, it’ll be wise to continue targeting them. Bam hasn’t been up to his rebounding standards as of late, but he’s still averaging 9.4 rebounds per game on the season. 19 of the last 25 big men listed above have had at least nine rebounds, so it’s reasonable to assume Bam will be joining the exclusive group today as well.
Zach Lavine Over 27.5 Points
At this point, it is no secret that the Kings are bad on defense. Despite their 40-27 record, they are 26th in Defensive Net Rating, 28th in opponent points in the paint, and play at the 9th-highest Pace. All of this consistently leads to plenty of scoring in all of their games, and the total against the Bulls currently lies at 239.
Zach Lavine has taken over the Bull’s alpha scoring role from DeMar DeRozan as of late. He has 27+ points in eight of his last 10 games averaging 30.4 points per game over this span. He put up 41 points against Sacramento earlier this year as well. Listed at 28.5 at FanDuel and 27.5 -125 at DraftKings, this line definitely has value to it at PrizePicks.
De’Aaron Fox Under 25.5 Points
On the opposite side of the spectrum, the Chicago Bulls have been one of the best defensive teams in the league this year ranking 5th in Defensive Net Rating. With Alex Caruso and Patrick Beverly on defense, opposing guards have had the clamps on them at all times. The Bulls have allowed the 3rd fewest points per game to Point Guards on the season, and the least PPG to PGs over the last 30 games.
De’Aaron Fox is an exceptional scorer, but it doesn’t matter what point guard faces the Bulls. They usually shut them down, or at least hold them to under 26 points. The only PGs that have managed 26+ points over the last 30 games have been Tyrese Maxey (26), Damian Lillard (40), Ja Morant (34), and Tyrese Haliburton (29). Fox only scored 16 points when he faced them earlier this year.
