He&#8217;s not shy about shooting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tonight, he&#8217;ll face a Cleveland Cavaliers team that is nothing special on defence (14th in defensive rating). Against all but the most daunting defensive matchups, I&#8217;m backing him on this line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best NBA picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Giddey over 20.5 points\/assists (<b>-106)<\/b><\/strong>: Giddey returned from an 11-game absence on Thursday and, despite coming off the bench, provided an immediate jolt to the Bulls&#8217; lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fifth-year player had 21 points and five assists in 26 minutes, shooting at a 7-for-13 clip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He might not be back to his typical low-30s minute total tonight, but he should continue moving in that direction.

That equates to 28.2 PA. He is 19-12 vs. this prop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given how well his return to action went, Giddey doesn&#8217;t seem far from being at full strength.
