Jarrett Allen H/L Than 13.5 Points
The Cleveland Cavaliers will be traveling to the West Coast to take on the Los Angeles Clippers.
This contest will feature a pair of the top defenses in the NBA, which should make this a tightly contested, lower-scoring battle. Naturally, this will impact player props.
Jarrett Allen is a player who may dwindle in offensive production due to this defensive matchup. He’ll face a Clippers defense that ranks 4th in points allowed per 100 possessions and 9th in defensive effective field goal percentage.
Plus, his primary matchup will be against the always difficult Ivica Zubac, who just so happens to have the best defensive rating on the team at -6.5 points allowed per 100 possessions.
Stokastic’s NBA DFS projections have Allen scoring 12 points in this game. In a relatively smaller slate, there aren’t going to be as many edges in the betting market, however – this appears to be one of them.
Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Prediction: Jarrett Allen Lower Than 13.5 Points
Dyson Daniels H/L Than 4.5 Assists
Another edge that was flagged in the betting market involved Hawks guard Dyson Daniels. He enters this contest averaging 4.2 assists per game this season.
Though, since the begging of February, his assist average has increased to 5.4 per game. His assist rate for the entirety of the year is 16.8%, but if we narrow it down from the beginning of February, we can see that it’s spiked to 20%.
Not only is that encouraging, but this matchup also provides a strong case for betting his over. The Hornets rank 22nd in points allowed per possession and 20th in defensive effective field goal percentage, giving Daniels plenty of opportunities to set up teammates for quality shots—and hopefully push him over 4.5 assists tonight.
