Best Bets

Talen Horton-Tucker over 31.5 P+R+A vs. Kings (-120)

DraftKings, 3:41 PM CT

Alex Barutha: This number is pretty inflated, but Horton-Tucker should have the highest usage rate on the team tonight with Lauri Markkanen, Jordan Clarkson and Collin Sexton sidelined. In a 91-minute sample with those three sidelined -- plus everyone else that's not on the team anymore -- THT has a 30 percent usage rate. He's taken double-digit shot attempts in six straight games, and during this stretch, has averaged 20.0 points, 6.3 assists and 5.2 rebounds in 29.2 minutes. Sacramento has the fifth-worst defense over the past month, so this is a great spot for him to take advantage.

De'Aaron Fox over 1.5 steals at Utah (-115)

DraftKings, 3:44 PM CT

Alex Barutha: On the other side of the Jazz-Kings matchup, there's an opportunity for Fox to rack up steals. Utah has the highest TOV% over the past month, and that's partially because the aforementioned THT can be a turnover machine, and there's not much cohesion on the team when so many of the usual playmakers are sidelined. Fox has at least one steal in 12 of the past 13 games, and he's averaged 1.8 swipes during this stretch.

Kyle Anderson O5.5 assists at Knicks

DraftKings Sportsbook, 2:30pm CT

Nick Whalen: The Timberwolves are currently 8.5-point dogs in New York, which implies that Anthony Edwards (ankle) is not expected to be available. On top of that, Minnesota is dealing with injuries to Naz Reid, Jaylen Nowell, Austin Rivers and Rudy Gobert. The Edwards absence alone is enough to push me toward Anderson, who's playing a ton of minutes of late (36.8MPG over last 8 games) and averaging 7.9 assists per game during that stretch.
