Today's Best Bets
Dejounte Muray o27.5 PRA (-115)| Lucky Rebel
Dejounte Murray is back for the New Orleans Pelicans and he looks great. He's now played 30+ minutes twice in his last three games, the one game in between being a blowout win over the Washington Wizards.
The Pelicans are 4-3 with Murray in the lineup and averaging 119.4 points per game. The team's offensive rating has jumped to 119.1 and Murray's been the engine driving this offense. He's averaging 17.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game in the seven games he's played.
Murray's shooting 50% from the field and now coming off his biggest game since returning to the hardwood. He scored 27 points against the Raptors and hit one of the filthiest daggers of the year (see above).
Murray's back and the energy is spreading through the locker room. The young point guard was just waiting to get back out on the floor and this is just the beginning.
Donte DiVincenzo o19.5 PRA (-105) | Lucky Rebel
Let's mix in a little narrative on Friday night. Donte DiVincenzo had a very short stint with the Golden State Warriors. He signed a two year deal back in 2022 for just over $9 million; the second year being a player option.
After opting out of the second year he signed a four year deal worth more than double in New York and now he just kills the Warriors every time he plays them. Since leaving the Warriors, Donte's played them 9 times. He's cleared this line in 7 of the 9 games, averaging 16.9 points, 4.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game.
Anthony Edwards is questionable for tonight's game and I think there's a good chance the young guard sits this one out. The Warriors are decimated by injuries and the Timberwolves come into this one as a 5.5-point favorite on the road. The line makes me think Edwards sits tonight and if that happens Donte's going to see a big boost in usage.
Donte's averaging 16.1 points, 5.2 assists and 5.8 rebounds per game without Antman in the lineup and taking an average of 12.3 shot attempts per game.
Benedict Mathurin o25.5 P/R (-105) | Lucky Rebel
I'm going right back to my fellow Canadian, Benedict Mathurin. He's been a different player for the Los Angeles Clippers and tonight with no Darius Garland, I'm expecting an even more expanded role for the young guard.
Mathurin's averaging 29.3 minutes per game over his last 10 games, he's taking close to 15 shots per contest and averaging 18.9 points per game in that timeframe. His shooting percentages have been bad but the kid's attacking the glass and getting to the free throw line.
Mathurin's averaging 6.4 rebounds per game in that 10 game span and 1.4 offensive rebounds per game. His offensive rebounds per game have almost doubled since joining the Clippers and it's because of the increase in minutes.
Mathurin's also averaging 7.8 free throw attempts with Los Angeles and it's because he's getting to hoop more. Now that he's coming off the bench, Mathurin's usage rate has jumped from 23% with Indiana to 28% with the Clips.
The Chicago Bulls come into the Intuit Dome tonight on the second night of a back to back, having played last night across town at Crypto. The Bulls are giving up 118.3 points per game on the second night of a back to back this year and rank 25th in points allowed on the season.
Mathurin's also got a ton of history against Chicago, having played his entire career in the Central Division.
