Detroit Pistons - Toronto Raptors

Luka returns after a two-game suspension, so everyone is probably expecting some hype from him, but if you look at it with a clear and sober mind, this season he has an average of almost 11 made 3-pointers per game, which means that only 1 out of 5 games he is below the recommended line. If we look at his last 10 games statistics, his average is 13.3, but he only goes under the recommended line 4 times in 10 games. The head-to-head with Cleveland also favors the under, so it's worth a try.

Lakers surprised Luka and will have the opportunity to annihilate the Cavaliers.

Even though the Cavaliers also have something to show, in my eyes it's very difficult to do anything against such a phenomenal performance from Luka. The fact that they will fight and have potential with Hardin in front of them, but in my opinion, experience and individual mastery can make a significant difference, and for Luka in this form it should be easy to score, especially since the Cavs are similarly weak as the Lakers. So if I had to guess, I would choose Lakers +6.

I will also choose LeBron's assist number, because with Luka, he tries to help the team in other ways besides points, and gives all the reins to Luka, so 9+ result is not impossible, and the odds are very grateful for the attempt. They looked great against the Wizards, achieving a triple-double, and I think there is a lot of value with the result here.

The Lakers beat the Cavaliers and will have a chance to crush them. Even though the Cavaliers also have something to show for, in my eyes it's difficult to do something against the phenomenal performance of such a player like Luka. The fact that the Cavaliers will fight and have the potential with Harding in front of their eyes, but in my opinion, experience and individual mastery can solve a lot of things and for Luka in such a form it should be easy to score, as the Cavs are as weak as the Lakers. So if you had to guess, it's Lakers +6.

I will also choose the number of LeBron's assists because with Luka, he tries to help the team in other ways than just scoring, he gives all the reins to Luka, so a 9+ result is not far-fetched and the odds are quite generous to try. They looked great against the Wizards, with a triple-double and I believe there is a lot of value in betting on assists.

The Clippers are currently showcasing fantastic form, essentially since the end of December they have been playing like one of the better teams in the league and will most likely be in the playoffs this year. Today they are hosting the Blazers team, a young team full of potential and this season it seems they are on the rise, but in my opinion they will still fall short of making it to the playoffs and the Clippers currently have a stronger team. Garland looks great, Kawhi is driving like an MVP this season and they have solid role players around them. Although on paper these teams are evenly matched, I believe the Clippers are a much higher caliber team than their record suggests (of course due to their 6-21 start) and the Blazers will likely not make it past the play-in. The home handicap is also in favor of the Clippers, I think they will cover the spread tonight.

Another great underdog is seen in this match, where Scoot is walking with a total of 14.5 meters, statistically the percentage for Peru to score such a total is around 10 and under. I can't find any additional information about PTB injuries that could significantly increase his throwing distance or time, so if these conditions remain, it should not exceed 14.

The excellent form of the Clippers and their series against the Trail Blazers, as well as their already twice beaten Blazers this year, must once again fall to the Los Angeles team. With just one day of rest and a wavering Blazers, as well as crucial games for a spot in the playoffs, we can expect the Clippers to play successfully, as they have gathered the ability to do so.
