There hasn&#8217;t been an unsustainable run of shooting efficiency to prop up Anunoby&#8217;s scoring binge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s happened in these recent games is an uptick in shot volume. Anunoby now has 15-plus field goal attempts in eight straight games (after previously averaging 12.5 FGA this season).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That includes a significant bump in 3-point shot volume, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Season averages:<\/strong> 16.6 PPG, 6.1 threes\/game<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Past 7 games:<\/strong> 21.3 PPG, 8.9 threes\/game<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With Jalen Brunson set to miss a fourth consecutive game, I expect plenty more shots for Anunoby. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anunoby and the Knicks face the Warriors on Saturday for the second time in two weeks. In their earlier matchup this month, Anunoby had 29 points on 11-of-19 shooting (4-for-9 from deep).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-479767b6-5872-497b-ac44-239c07c7e3d5\"><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: Anunoby is averaging 20.0 points on 16.5 FGA in four games without Brunson this season, and he&#8217;s cashed this bet three times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best NBA picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Wiggins over 20.5 points <\/strong> (-109)<\/strong>: After a pair of quieter ramp-up games with his new squad, Andrew Wiggins has been a steady scoring presence for the Miami Heat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s what Wiggins has accomplished in his past eight games:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>21.1 PPG<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>16.8 FGA<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>20+ points in 6 of 8<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both the Heat and the Memphis Grizzlies are on back-to-backs on Saturday, so there are no rest advantages to speak of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the Grizzlies are worth targeting for Wiggins because they allow the second-most PPG to opposing small forwards (24.0), per Betting Pros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vucevic under 2.5 assists (+125)<\/strong>: The Houston Rockets allow the fewest assists in the NBA overall (22.9\/game), as well as the third-fewest to opposing centres (3.51). This is a worthwhile opportunity to fade Vucevic at plus money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chicago Bulls&#8217; big man hasn&#8217;t been particularly pass-happy, anyway. He&#8217;s gone under this assist total in five of his past seven games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last night, Houston allowed just 14 total assists to the Dallas Mavericks. No one on the Mavs had more than three assists in that game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-84329f2b-7888-4034-9979-03e8608897e5\"><em>NBA prop picks made at 9:35 a.m. ET on 03\/15\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday&#8217;s marquee NBA matchup features the New York Knicks and the Golden State Warriors, and that&#8217;s where my favourite prop bet of the night comes from.
