Grayson Allen OVER made threes ()
The Suns’ starting lineup is as difficult to guard as anyone in the league when everyone is healthy. Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal are all capable of demanding double teams on any given night. That allows the rest of their starters to roam the court freely for large durations of the game. No one has benefited more than Grayson Allen, especially in January.
This month, he is shooting 55.7% from the three-point line. That includes six consecutive games with at least three made three pointers. Given his hot streak and the quality of looks he is getting currently, even money odds on this line are a steal.
Luka Doncic UNDER Points ()
In eight games vs. the Hawks in his career, Luka Doncic has never scored 34 or more points. He has also shot less than 40% from the field in five of those matchups. Additionally, although he is averaging 32 points per game this month, he is averaging a season low in field goal percentage (45.2%) and three-point percentage (32.4%).
The Hawks aren’t a great defensive team, but they seem to have Doncic’s number. Given the solid value on this line, it’s worth betting on this trend to continue.

Chet Holmgren OVER blocks ()
OKC’s rookie big man is fourth in the league this season in blocks per game, averaging 2.6 per contest. Tonight, he is up against a Pelicans team that is top 10 in points in the paint per contest.
Between Jonas Valanciunas, who is top 20 in paint touches per game, and Zion Williamson, who is second in the league in points scored in the paint per contest, there will be plenty of opportunities for Holmgren to cover this line.

Giannis Antetokounmpo OVER points ()
The Cavaliers are usually forced to have their big man Jarrett Allen defend Giannis Antetokounmpo. He is one of the better defenders at the center position in the league, but he struggles to defend on the perimeter, which allows Antetokounmpo to pull him away from the rim and get past him efficiently.
In two games vs. the Cavaliers this season, Antetokounmpo has connected on 30 of his 46 total shot attempts and scored at least 34 in both matchups. Despite his big nights, both contests were close, which required big minutes from the Bucks’ star to keep the game competitive. Based on production this season alone, this is one of the safest player-point wagers on the market tonight.
