But he should continue to strike while the iron is blazing hot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that Irving has been a dazzling scorer for a long, long time. A 22.5-point line falls below his scoring average in each of the past nine seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it&#8217;s not as if Irving&#8217;s tenure in Dallas has prompted a fall-off in production. Over two-plus seasons with the Mavs, he&#8217;s scored 25.9 PPG on 19.2 shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of that is to say, Irving looks like a great bet at this number. Get him the ball a bit more and watch what he does with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Irving only had 15 points against the San Antonio Spurs (tonight&#8217;s opponent) in the season opener, but that was on an uncharacteristically low minutes count. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, he averaged 28.0 PPG against the Spurs and hit this over in two of three games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Irving has cashed this bet in six of his past nine games (26.7 PPG) while shooting 58.6% from the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-fa134a48-a478-432b-95e0-66881f0d337b\">Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Davis under 12.5 rebounds (-120)<\/strong>: On a back-to-back, Davis isn&#8217;t in his best position tonight to rack up rebounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Davis&#8217; Los Angeles Lakers face the New Orleans Pelicans, who&#8217;ve allowed the third-fewest rebounds per game to opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New Orleans hasn&#8217;t even allowed a player to record 10-plus rebounds in any of its past four games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That has a lot to do with New Orleans playing at the second-slowest pace (97.1 possessions\/game), per NBA.com. But hey, whatever works to suppress Davis&#8217; rebounding opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Davis, who&#8217;s averaging 10.9 RPG this season, has gone under 12.5 rebounds in five of his past six games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Collins over 26.5 points\/rebounds (-120)<\/strong>: Collins has primarily come off the bench so far this year for the Jazz, but injuries have pushed him into back-to-back starting lineups \u2014 and he&#8217;s taken advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Tuesday, Collins finished with 29 points and 10 rebounds in a starting role against Phoenix. Two days later, he racked up 28 points and nine rebounds against Dallas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Utah centre Walker Kessler is out, and power forward Lauri Markkanen is questionable. I think the 6-foot-9 Collins will draw into the starting frontcourt again, which makes this line look extremely attainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In November, Collins has averaged 21.0 PPG and 8.3 RPG despite coming off the bench in four of six games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 3:10 p.m. ET on 11\/16\/2024.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are four NBA night games on Saturday, and I&#8217;ve got a prop bet from three of them.
