Unsurprisingly, the increased minutes have led to more scoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2023-24: 5.8 PPG, 5.1 FGA\/game<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>2024-25: 13.9 PPG, 13.1 FGA\/game<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniels isn&#8217;t lighting the league on fire, but he&#8217;s been consistent and draws a great matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bucks are allowing the third-most points per game to opposing shooting guards (24.75), according to Fantasy Pros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Milwaukee traded Jrue Holiday for Damian Lillard two seasons ago, it brought immediate offensive upside but severely hampered their defence, especially on the perimeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This season, the Bucks allow opponents to make 3s at the 10th-best clip in the NBA (36.6%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniels takes over 30% of his shots from beyond the arc and he&#8217;ll have an outsized opportunity to fill the basket on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Daniels has cleared this mark in nine of his last 13 games. <\/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 over 37.5 points and rebounds (-124)<\/strong>: This is a monstrous number to clear but Davis is having a monster season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Los Angeles Lakers big man ranks seventh in the NBA in both points (27.8) and rebounds (11.5) per game. That nets out to a combined average of 39.2 points and rebounds per night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He&#8217;s cleared this mark in six of his past 10 games and gets an exploitable matchup against the Miami Heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Miami allows the fourth-most rebounds per game to centres and ranks a middling 16th in opponent mid-range shooting percentage, per Cleaning the Glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Davis takes 44% of his shots from the midrange, which ranks in the 90th percentile for all NBA players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Randle under 1.5 threes (-130)<\/strong>: Randle isn&#8217;t a 3-point shooter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his first season with the Minnesota Timberwolves, he&#8217;s attempted just 4.6 threes a night. He has also been cold lately. In his past six games, Randle is 1-5 against this line while shooting 25% from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Making matters worse, Randle is playing a Los Angeles Clippers team that excels at defending the perimeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>L.A. owns the league&#8217;s third-best 3-point defence (34.2%) while surrendering the 11th-fewest 3-point attempts (37.2) per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-84329f2b-7888-4034-9979-03e8608897e5\"><em>Picks made at 10:13 a.m. ET on 12\/04\/2024.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve got three prop recommendations from Wednesday&#8217;s five-game NBA slate.
