Cade Cunningham UNDER 19.5 Points and Assists (+100)

Cade Cunningham has shown some flashes in his rookie season, but he’s put up just three assists over his last two games and is shooting only 36.0 percent from the field and 27.4 percent from 3. 

The Suns just held Steph Curry to 4-for-21 shooting on Tuesday and have the second best defensive rating in the NBA. Mikal Bridges is going to make things tough on the rookie tonight. -- Peter Dewey

Nikola Vucevic OVER 16.5 Points (+100)

Granted it was against one of the league's worst defenses in the Charlotte Hornets, but the Chicago Bulls figured out something in their 133-119 win on Monday night: play through Nikola Vucevic to get him going and everyone else's game gets elevated.

Now, they face the New York Knicks; whose style of play is more conducive of playing in more half-court sets as they rank 25th in pace. Vooch also now has to get respect from 3-point range, making Chicago even more deadly running pick and pop with Zach LaVine and Lonzo Ball.

The season's stats would indicate the OVER is not reflective of his production this year, and that would be true. Vucevic has only had two 20-point games or more this year. What is also true, is that the Bulls need him to continue to play on the offensive end with confidence, and I think they continue to make it a point to get him going. -- Ben Heisler

Jaren Jackson Jr. OVER 18.5 Points (-115)

Could the leap for JJJ be coming? Jackson has stepped up of late with Ja Morant going down with a knee injury, averaging close to 20 points per game over his last five. 

I'm buying the upward trajectory on him and riding his point over against the Oklahoma City Thunder, who are on the second night of a back-to-back and lack the front court depth to hold the versatile big men down. -- Reed Wallach
