Kevin Durant UNDER 29.5 Points (-115)
It hurts to bet on the UNDER when it comes to Kevin Durant's point total, but I think it's the smart play for when they host the Charlotte Hornets tonight.
His point total is set exactly at his season average, but you have to think that he'll step aside tonight and let Kyrie Irving shine in his home debut. Charlotte also largely shut down Durant in their last meeting, keeping him to 14 points. I'll plug my nose and take a shot at his UNDER in tonight's big game. – Iain MacMillan
Devin Booker OVER 36.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-130)
Devin Booker is averaging 26.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game while shooting 46.2 percent from the field and 37.5 percent from beyond the arc this season.
However, he’s been ever better over his last 10 games, averaging 30.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game. Booker is shooting nearly 55 percent from the field over that stretch and he’s cleared this line in eight of his last 10 games.
Chris Paul’s return may lead to some regression in the assist column for Booker, but he’s still going to fill it up as a scorer. – Peter Dewey
Spencer Dinwiddie OVER 20.5 Points, Rebounds, Assists (-125)
The Spencer Dinwiddie redemption tour in Dallas continues tonight when the Dallas Mavericks host the Utah Jazz. Up until Friday night in Minnesota, Dinwiddie had hit the over on this prop in seven straight games. It's hard to fault him for coming up short against the Timberwolves, finishing with 11 points, four assists and just two rebounds, as Minnesota outplayed Dallas the entire way in a 116-95 victory.
Tonight at home, I expect a new streak to begin. Dinwiddie played under 28 minutes for the first time since March 1 on Friday night. When he has been on the court, his usage rate over that seven game stretch has averaged just under 25%. The ball is constantly in his hands making plays happen and the Jazz, while improved defensively from earlier, still rank outside the top 10 in rating.
Dinwiddie has been instrumental to Dallas' success, particularly in crunch time.
A return to having the ball in his hands more often will only help, especially returning back home. -- Ben Heisler
