Kevin Porter Jr. Over 30.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists
The Jalen Green.
Tonight Porter gets a matchup against Utah, which is always enticing, as the Jazz have allowed the eighth-most points per game this season. On top of that, their defensive efficiency ranks fifth worst in the NBA, and their opponents are shooting 48.5% from the field against them, which is the sixth highest in the league. The over for Porter points/rebounds/assists is -125 on PointsBet, even when the line is set at 31.5. That implies that the odds for the PrizePicks line are looking solid.
