The 36-42 Utah Jazz know their season is over. The front office made it clear this team wouldn’t make a run after selling several role players at the deadline. As a result, OddsShopper’s betting model recommends fading one key remaining member of Utah’s rotation tonight. This Kelly Olynyk player prop for this evening’s Lakers-Jazz game has tons of value at FanDuel right now. For more Lakers-Jazz player prop bets and NBA predictions, check out OddsShopper’s tools and articles. I’ve already locked in two other player props for this evening’s action.

Lakers-Jazz Best Bet | Kelly Olynyk Player Prop
Kelly Olynyk O/U 4.5 Assists
The Utah Jazz have tapped out of the playoff race. Sharps understand this reality, which is why this Kelly Olynyk player prop is jumping out at FanDuel Sportsbook. They have set his total to 4.5. In contrast, DraftKings has set this number to only 3.5. Caesars has done the same. The 4.5 is so off-market that OddsShopper’s betting model projects the under for an expected ROI of 10%.
There are more than just market-based reasons to tail this NBA player prop. Olynyk is averaging only 3.6 assists per game. Although he’ll have a bigger role tonight because of Utah’s limited rotation, he has gone for five-plus assists in just 17 of his 65 appearances this year. Olynyk also faced the Lakers twice earlier this year and recorded five total assists over the two matchups.

Fading Olynyk tonight makes sense, especially right now. The Jazz have listed both Collin Sexton and Lauri Markkanen as questionable, and if either of them gets ruled in, Olynyk will likely control the rock for considerably less time, reducing his opportunities to dish out assists. Let’s exploit the uncertainty and Olynyk’s low assist numbers to lock in this play at FanDuel. Readers yet to register at FanDuel can score a no-sweat first bet worth up to $1,000!
