Damian Lillard Over 4.5 Made Threes (+102)
Damian Lillard has made 14 three-pointers over the past two games. He's been amazing, and he can keep it going tonight.
Dame is up against the Washington Wizards. The Wiz aren't an easy matchup for threes, but with how many treys Lillard is shooting lately, I'm not sure how much that matters.
Lillard has taken 14 and 13 three-pointers the past two games. He's shot at least nine threes in 16 of his past 18 games. He's letting it fly.
We need Dame to hit five threes for this to cash, and that's a big ask of anyone. But we have him projected to make 4.8 triples on 12.4 attempts. That projection is obviously just shy of five, but with a plus-money price on the over, I think it's worth a roll of the dice.
Grayson Allen Over 2.5 Rebounds (-164)
Grayson Allen is coming off a zero-rebound effort in 28 minutes in his past game, but there are reasons to back the over at this line of 2.5 boards.
Prior to the last game, Allen -- who is playing the Boston Celtics on Tuesday -- had snagged at least three boards in three consecutive outings. Allen has gone over 2.5 rebounds in 9 of his past 14 games. He's averaging 3.4 rebounds per night for the season, and he pulled down three rebounds the last time he faced Boston, which was their only meeting this campaign.
It doesn't hurt that the Celtics are expected to be without Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, two guys who have combined for 15.6 rebounds per game and are second and third on the team in boards.
Our model projects Allen to total 3.4 rebounds. While the -164 juice isn't fun, this is a sound bet.
