BREAK IT DOWN:
(stats taken from DraftKings Sportsbook’s Stats Hub)
Luka Doncic First Point Scorer (+536): Luka Doncic and the Lakers face the Warriors in the primetime showdown on Saturday night, and the public is loving Luka as the first point scorer. This prop market has become extremely popular on DraftKings Sportsbook in recent weeks, and Luka makes a lot of sense in this spot since he gets so much usage whenever he’s on the floor. Luka’s 36.5% usage is the highest of any player in the NBA, and he’s had at least 35% usage in each of his last 10 games. He has scored the first point in seven of the 46 games he has started (15.2%), second on the team behind only LeBron James. The Lakers also have the highest tip win % of the teams on the board this Saturday, which helps Luka’s ability to deliver on this longshot prop at over 5:1 odds.
Scottie Barnes Double-Double, Yes (+155) Barnes and the Raptors have a great matchup in Washington against the Wizards in the 7:10 p.m. ET tip time. Barnes has 24 double-doubles in his 57 games this season (42%). He hasn’t had a double-double since before the All-Star break, but he has come close in two of his three games since play resumed. He had 14 points and nine rebounds in 34 minutes against the Bulls, and 15 points and seven assists in 32 minutes against the Thunder. Scottie struggled to get many rebounds or assists against the Spurs on the second night of the team’s back-to-back on Wednesday, but he should have a much easier time in this great matchup for forwards in Washington. Barnes had 25 points and 14 rebounds against the Pacers in a similar matchup early in February and has two double-doubles in his last four against Washington.
DeAndre Jordan 11+ Rebounds (+610): What year is it? Jordan has been turning back the clock for the Pelicans and has started three straight games for New Orleans. He hadn’t played at all from Oct. 29 until Feb. 21, when he stepped right into the starting lineup and had six points, 15 rebounds and four blocks against the 76ers. He had eight rebounds against the Warriors in 22 minutes in his next start, and in his most recent contest, he grabbed seven rebounds in 13 minutes against the Jazz. With Utah extremely thin up front, it’s a great matchup for centers, and this alternate rebound total for Jordan comes at juicy 6:1 odds. He did have 15 rebounds just a few games ago, and he has been on pace to hit the over on this prop in each of his three games if he were to play 30 minutes. Yves Missi (calf) is questionable, and if he misses a sixth straight game, Jordan has the potential to deliver a longshot win while filling in.
