By Kyle Murray
LeBron James returned to full strength in the Lakers’ most-recent game and although he went under this number, it was very encouraging to see him get 38 minutes. He should play around 35-36 minutes against the Pacers in a game with a 1.5-point spread on national TV.
In 36 minutes, James has the upside to tally 10+ in both categories. He projects for 7.9 assists and 8.5 rebounds.
Pick: LeBron James Over 14.5 Rebounds & Assists (-105)
[subheader sizedown=”false” text=”Kyle Kuzma Over 16.5 Points (-115)” subtext=”Bucks vs. Nuggets · 9 p.m. ET” center=”false” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/nba/100/mil.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/nba/odds/milwaukee-bucks” link1follow=”true” logo2url=”” link2=”” link2follow=”true” trailinglogourl=”” trailinglink=”” trailinglinkfollow=”true”][/subheader]
Damian Lillard remains out for Milwaukee, which means Kyle Kuzma should continue seeing expanded opportunities. Kuzma has seen a team-leading 5% usage rate boost with Lillard off the floor and has averaged 17.4 points per game in five games without Lillard. The key is that Kuzma has shot 20.8% from 3 in those games. He’s no deadeye shooter, but there could be some positive regression. Kuzma has taken an extra three shots per game with Lillard sidelined, so the volume has been there.
The matchup is also solid. Denver is in the bottom five in defensive rating this month. The Nuggets are 23rd in 3-point makes allowed and 3-point percentage, which should help Kuzma improve his recent shooting. Nikola Jokic isn’t expected to play, so this game should stay competitive.
Then there’s Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Greek Freak is listed as questionable with a foot injury. Denver opened as a 2.5-point favorite, but the line has ballooned to -6 at most books. This is Milwaukee’s final game on an extended road trip, so it wouldn’t be shocking to see Antetokounmpo sit. Kuzma’s usage rate is up to over 28% with both Lillard and Antetokounmpo off the floor. We don’t need Antetokounmpo to be ruled out, but it’d be a nice bonus angle.
Pick: Kyle Kuzma Over 16.5 Points (-115)
[subheader sizedown=”false” text=”Derrick White Over 15.5 Points (-125)” subtext=”Celtics vs. Suns · 10 p.m. ET” center=”false” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/nba/100/bos.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/nba/odds/boston-celtics” link1follow=”true” logo2url=”” link2=”” link2follow=”true” trailinglogourl=”” trailinglink=”” trailinglinkfollow=”true”]
This number at BetMGM jumped out to me. The other books are at 16.5 with similar juice, while bet365 is up to 17.5. White has seen a 3.8% usage rate bump with Jayson Tatum off the floor.
In six games without Tatum, White has averaged 21.8 points per game. Phoenix is 22nd in defensive rating this month.
Pick: Derrick White Over 15.5 Points (-125)
