Jerami Grant UNDER 18.5 Points (-128)

Jerami Grant was able to thrive in this role with Damian Lillard out, even in the first game Lillard was back for. 

However, he was taking 14 shots per game in Lillard’s absence. Now that Portland’s leader is back and has a game under his belt, I don’t see the attempts for Grant continuing to be significant. With Lillard in the lineup, Grant hasn’t surpassed this line twice. Even against the porous Charlotte Hornets defense, trust the other scorers for Portland. – Donnavan Smoot

Bobby Portis UNDER 37.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-110)

Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is out tonight against the Oklahoma City Thunder, so sportsbooks have adjusted Bobby Portis’ lines for tonight’s games since he will get the start. 

Even with Bobby P getting the start, this line is insane for the Milwaukee Bucks forward. In his lone game without Giannis this season, Portis had 12 points, 21 rebounds and two assists, falling short of 37.5 PRA. 

So far in the 2022-23 campaign, Portis is playing 25.5 minutes per game while averaging 13.1 points, 11.1 rebounds and 2.0 assists per night. To realize how crazy this line is, consider this:

Bobby Portis has a higher PRA prop than Zion Williamson, Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Davis tonight. 

Even with a good game, Bobby P could go UNDER this number. Fade him all day at 37.5. – Peter Dewey

Domantas Sabonis OVER 5.5 Assists (+104)

Domantas Sabonis has dished out at least five assists and all seven games he's played more than 30 minutes this season, and cleared this prop in six of seven games. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers have two of the best interior defenders in the league in Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley, so I expect Sabonis to work as a facilitator in this one, and the team has shot nicely from the outside this season, posting a top 10 effective field goal percentage.

Sabonis is averaging 10 potential assists per game, so the reps are there for him to go over this prop. – Reed Wallach

Desmond Bane OVER 21.5 Points (-121)

Desmond Bane is leveling up before our eyes. He's averaging 24 points per game on the season, shooting a remarkable 45.9% from beyond the arc while clearing this prop in five of his last seven games.

I love this spot for Bane, as he's facing a Spurs team that ranks second in the NBA in pace but 24th in defensive rating. In those last seven games, the only two opponents that Bane didn't score at least 28 against were Boston and Charlotte. Both of those teams rank in the top 13 in defensive rating, and he still finished with 19 points in each contest.

Against a bad Spurs defense that loves to run, Bane should have ample opportunity to get his shots up and clear this number with ease. Again, he's scored at least 28 in five of seven!

It appears sportsbooks haven't caught up with Bane's ascension, so we need to take advantage of the soft number while we can. – Joe Summers

Utah Jazz 1Q +1.5 (-110) vs. Atlanta Hawks

The Utah Jazz continue their middle fingers tour on all the haters this Wednesday night in Atlanta, looking to become the first NBA team to 10 wins on the season.

Utah has found ideal teams to match up with throughout their great start to the season, and the matchup this evening against Atlanta is another that sets up perfectly for them to cover, but also pull off the upset.

However, where I believe the most value lies is in the first quarter, where I can get Utah at +1.5 vs. an Atlanta team that really struggles at home in the early going. The Hawks' high-flying offense ranks 25th in the league in first quarter offensive rating, and seem a bit out of sorts before Trae Young starts to heat up later on.

Meanwhile, the Jazz have been torching teams in the first quarter especially of late, ranked first in the NBA in their last three games in 1Q PPG, and in 1Q offensive rating at an absurd (175.0).

Eventually they'll start to slow down, but this isn't the matchup it happens, and I'll happily jump on board at +1.5, as well as at +120 on the moneyline. – Ben Heisler
