Best NBA Props for Tuesday | Jaren Jackson Jr.
Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 29.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-120, DraftKings)
Jaren Jackson Jr. has been playing exceptionally well in recent games, particularly in the absence of Ja Morant. In nine starts without Morant this month, Jackson Jr. has averaged 22.6 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.2 assists for 30.5 points + rebounds + assists. Even more impressive, he’s cleared 29.5 points + rebounds + assists in seven of those nine games. Over this period, he’s been sporting a 28% usage rate and a 12% rebound rate.
Jackson’s impressive performances suggest he’s a strong pick for Wednesday’s matchup against the Orlando Magic. He should receive ample playing time as long as the game remains competitive.
Dejounte Murray Under 1.5 3-Pointers (-160, PointsBet)
Dejounte Murray has struggled with his 3-point shooting in recent games, going under 1.5 3’s in 10 straight. This trend is likely to continue in Wednesday’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, who allow the fewest 3-point attempts and the second-fewest made 3’s in the league. Cleveland also plays at the slowest pace in basketball, further reducing Murray’s chances of hitting a 3.
PointsBet is offering this line at -160, and it’s graded as one of the best bets on OddsShopper at the time of writing. You may also want to consider using this bet as a parlay piece given the high juice on the under.
Tyler Herro Under 4.5 Assists (-160, FanDuel)
Tyler Herro is averaging only 6.7 potential assists per game since Kyle Lowry rejoined the team on March 11. Lowry is second on the team in potential assists since his return, and 63% of Lowry’s minutes have also come with Herro on the floor, making it difficult for Herro to achieve a high number of assists. Herro has gone under 4.5 assists in five of six games with Lowry since his return and eight of his last 10. FanDuel is offering this line with some heavy juice at -160.
