Jordan Clarkson OVER 18.5 Points (-106)
The entire Utah Jazz team has been cold in its last two games, leading it to two straight losses. However, Jordan Clarkson is set for a bounce back day.
He hit this line in five straight games prior to the Jazz’s slump and is shooting fairly well this season. He’s shooting 39% from 3 and 80% from the free throw line. With the Knicks posting the 24th best defensive rating, there will be plenty of opportunity for Clarkson to get back on the right foot. – Donnavan Smoot
Keegan Murray OVER 11.5 Points (-115)
Betting on Keegan Murray has been a bit of a rollercoaster this season, but when he receives adequate usage, he’s easily clearing this prop.
Murray has played in 11 games this season for the Kings, and there is an obvious trend developing. Murray has cleared this line in every game he’s attempted double-digit shots, putting up 17.4 points on 13.1 attempts in those games.
He’s failed to clear it in his other four games, taking just 5.8 shots per game in those matchups. It’s pretty clear the Kings have to keep him involved, so I’ll back his OVER tonight. – Peter Dewey
Spencer Dinwiddie OVER 2.5 3-Pointers Made (-113)
Spencer Dinwiddie is scorching from 3 since the start of November, clearing this total in five of six games and averaging four treys per game on over 41% shooting.
The Clippers are 22nd in the league in 3-point shots allowed, so Dallas shooters around Luka Doncic should get plenty of opportunities from the perimeter and Dinwiddie shooting it too well at the moment to pass. – Reed Wallach
Anfernee Simons OVER 19.5 Points (-120)
This is a slam-dunk bet on a rising star in the NBA. Simons is averaging 24.8 points per game this month, scoring at least 20 points in five of his last six matchups. In the lone exception, he still scored 19.
With at least 17 shots in every game but one this year, Simons' volume is that of a player whose points prop should be closer to 24.5.
The Spurs are 28th in the NBA in defensive rating but play at the fifth-fastest pace in the league, giving Simons plenty of chances to get shots up too.
I'd bet Simons' points prop up to 23.5 and will happily hammer the value on 19.5. – Joe Summers
San Antonio Spurs vs. Portland Trail Blazers 1Q OVER 57.5 (-120)
We get two very strong ATS teams in San Antonio and Portland tonight from the Moda Center with two teams that don't have much interest in defending, especially early on.
San Antonio ranks second-to-last in the NBA in first quarter defensive rating this season on the road, and dead last overall at 121.2.
Portland is slightly better at home, but still fall in the bottom half of the league in their arena, but rank 24th out of 30 teams in 1Q defensive rating.
Offensively, both teams come in 17th and 19th in 1Q offensive rating, but 57.5 is not a tough hill to climb given how bad their defense is early on.
Even with the concern that Portland plays at the slowest pace in the league in the first 12 minutes, I expect the Spurs to push tempo and force a little more action than most are accustomed to. – Ben Heisler
