Odds as of January 31st at FanDuel Sportsbook

With availability for the Nets unsure, if you’re in New York you’ll have to lay a prop bet on the opposition for tonight’s game. Chris Paul has had double digit assists in six of the past seven games, can he he go over 11.5 tonight?

DeRozan Dishing Out More Assists

It’s well known by now that DeMar DeRozan does a little bit of everything for the Chicago Bulls and that’s exactly why his name has been tossed around in MVP odds conversation. The veteran is specifically serving as a high-level playmaker right now for Chicago with Lonzo Ball on the shelf due to a knee injury.

The game is also expected to be high scoring, with sharp money on the Over 218.5 in the NBA betting trends.

On the season, DeRozan is averaging five dimes per game. But, the 32-year-old has comfortably hit the over in assists in three straight contests, dishing out 10,8, and 7. Although the All-Star did only collect three assists against the NBA-worst Orlando Magic on January 23rd, that was before he began picking apart defenses over the last week. He’s going to make them pay this time around. Expect another fine performance from DeRozan in the assist category.

• Pick: DeMar DeRozan Over 5.5 Assists (-140)

Middleton Takes Advantage From 3-Point Range

Aside from Giannis of course, Khris Middleton is one of the most important players on this Bucks roster. He’s a clutch scorer, a solid rebounder, a good playmaker, and most notably, a stout shooter. Middleton is draining 38% of his three-pointers this season, which is one of the best clips on Milwaukee.

But, he’s only hit the over in triples in two of his last four games, draining just a pair of them in his previous two appearances.

That doesn’t sound good for the over here, I know. But, the Bucks’ opponent, the Wizards, are allowing their opponents to shoot 43% from downtown across the last three contests. Middleton is one of Milwaukee’s leading catalysts when it comes to making it rain and I do think you’ll see him get in a rhythm here and take advantage of DC’s poor perimeter defense.

• Pick: Khris Middleton Over 2.5 Three-Pointers (+126)
