A Closer Look at Today’s Picks
Zack LaVine’s Points Prop: Over 19.5
First up, we’re eyeing Zack LaVine of the Chicago Bulls and his points prop of 19.5. The Bulls’ offense primarily revolves around four key players – DeMar DeRozan, Zach LaVine, Nikola Vucevic, and Coby White. With LaVine being one of the focal points, this matchup against the Toronto Raptors is too good to pass up.
The Raptors have been on a defensive slump lately, making this an ideal scenario for LaVine to shine. Their trade-offs of Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby have notably weakened their defense. Over their last ten games, Toronto ranks sixth-worst in defensive rating. With LaVine’s tendency to hover around a 22-24% usage rate and averaging double-digit shot attempts per game, the over on his 19.5 points prop seems like a steal.

Xavier Tillman‘s Fantasy Score Prop: Over 27
Our second pick is on Xavier Tillman’s fantasy score, set at 27. Tillman has been a consistent performer, especially when given the minutes. In his recent games as a starter, he has consistently played 28-30 minutes and has a solid track record of surpassing the fantasy score of 27 in similar situations.
Tillman’s all-around ability to score, rebound, assist, and rack up defensive stats makes him a valuable player in fantasy terms. With the Grizzlies missing key players like Ja Morant and Desmond Bane, Tillman’s role becomes even more critical. His per-minute production has been impressive, making the over on his fantasy score a smart bet.
