Golden State Warriors vs. Houston Rockets
- Leg 1: Draymond Green Under 8.5 Points (-118)
- Leg 2: Amen Thompson Under 15.5 Points (-114)
- Leg 3: Alperen Sengun Over 9.5 Rebounds (+106)
Draymond Green has scored below eight points in two consecutive games. His usage even dropped to 12.1% against the Clippers last time out. Ultimately, Green has shot 36.2% from the field over the last ten games, and he’s facing a Rockets team that ranks second in the NBA in points allowed to power forwards this season. It’s highly unlikely Green’s field goal percentage improves against the Rockets.
Meanwhile, Amen Thompson has scored at least 20 points in three of his last four games. Still, his usage is below 19% over the last ten games for the Rockets. Thompson has shot nearly 56% from the field and has attempted close to ten shots per game over the last ten games. It’ll be hard to sustain that success against a Warriors team that ranks 4th in the NBA in points allowed against small forwards this season.
Finally, let’s roll with Alperen Sengun to earn at least ten rebounds. He’s averaged close to 16 rebound chances per game over the last ten games and just had 23 rebound chances in his last game against the Wizards. Sengun has averaged 10.9 rebounds per game against the Warriors over his last 15 games against them. He typically dominates in the rebound category against the Warriors.
Parlay Odds: +526
Los Angeles Lakers vs. Denver Nuggets
- Leg 1: LeBron James Over 19.5 Points (-120)
- Leg 2: Austin Reaves Under 4.5 Rebounds (-180)
- Leg 3: Cameron Johnson Over 1.5 Threes (-132)
LeBron James has scored at least 20 points in 67% of games this season. He’s also hit this line in 82% of his last 11 games against the Nuggets. In addition, he’s scored at least 20 points in eight of his last 10 games and still has a usage rate of almost 30% over the last 10 games. Tonight, he’ll take on a Nuggets team that ranks 27th in field goals attempted and 25th in points allowed to small forwards this season.
On the other hand, Austin Reaves earned eight rebounds in his last game. Still, this is a good sell-high spot for Reaves, who is facing a Nuggets team that ranks third in the NBA in total rebounds and defensive rebounds against shooting guards this season. Reaves didn’t have more than nine rebound chances in any of his previous nine games before earning 17 on his last one.
Lastly, take Cameron Johnson to drill two threes. He’s hit this line in six of his last ten games and has averaged 1.7 threes against the Lakers over his last three games. Johnson has attempted at least four threes in six consecutive games and will battle a Lakers team that ranks dead last in three-point percentage to power forwards this season.
