Paul George M/L Than 2.5 Three-Pointers Made
It’s been a disappointing season for the Philadelphia 76ers, and veteran forward Paul George has struggled as well.
George is averaging just 16 points per game on 43% shooting, including 2.3 made threes on 6.5 attempts (35.7%).
Although, tonight presents an opportunity for him to boost those numbers against a weak Chicago Bulls team with plenty of defensive vulnerabilities.
That said, the Bulls surprisingly defend the perimeter well, ranking 2nd in opponent three-point percentage and 10th in threes allowed. So if George does find success scoring, it’s more likely to come from mid-range or near the rim.
With that in mind, the under on his three-point prop looks like a strong play tonight.
DraftKings Pick6 Prediction: Paul George Less Than 2.5 Three-Pointers Made
Lu Dort M/L Than 12.5 Points + Rebounds
The Oklahoma City Thunder and Minnesota Timberwolves are facing off in back-to-back games, with OKC winning last night’s matchup 130-123. Lu Dort had a quiet outing, finishing with just four points and three rebounds, but I expect a bounce-back performance tonight.
Stokastic’s NBA DFS projections align with this expectation, forecasting Dort to finish with 10 points and four boards—right in line with his season averages. This sets up a strong opportunity to capitalize on a lower prop mark and back Dort to go over it.
DraftKings Pick6 Prediction: Lu Dort More Than 12.5 Points + Rebounds
