Brooklyn Nets vs. Milwaukee Bucks: Giannis Antetokounmpo over 29.5 points scored, -102 @ FanDuel

Antetokounmpo made his return from a four-game absence due to a thigh injury and looked as dominant as ever. He finished with 30 points (10-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-14 FT), 15 rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 118-109 loss to the Knicks. Even though the star forward is uncertain to play on the second leg of a back-to-back set, he acknowledged that he's expected to play Saturday while logging more than the 28 minutes he played Friday, according to Jim Owczarski of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Considering that the Nets are a favorable matchup for the Bucks due to the absence of Michael Porter (back) and their notorious defensive woes, don't be surprised if Antetokounmpo reaches the 30-point mark again. He has posted at least 30 points and 10 boards in seven different games this season.

Dallas Mavericks vs. Los Angeles Clippers: James Harden over 3.5 three-pointers made, +101 @ DraftKings

Harden is coming off a 23-point, 11-assist, seven-rebound effort in a loss to the Grizzlies on Friday. Even though playing back-to-back sets gets tougher and tougher for veteran players, don't expect Harden to have any limitations whatsoever. He should take advantage of what figures to be an easy matchup against the Mavericks, as Dallas is also on the second leg of a back-to-back set and had a hard time trying to defend the perimeter against the Lakers on Friday. Harden also has the body of work to believe this line of over 3.5 threes is doable. He has made at least three three-pointers in four of his last five games and is shooting an impressive 37.3 percent from beyond the arc on 10.3 attempts per contest.

Denver Nuggets vs. Phoenix Suns: Over 232.5 total points, -105 @ ESPNBet

The Nuggets showed several flaws on defense against the Spurs on Friday, and it wouldn't be surprising if those problems surface again when facing the Suns on Friday. Phoenix has been playing better than anyone would have anticipated given their recent injury woes, and the fact that both teams are playing on a back-to-back set could boost the chances of a high-scoring matchup due to the tired legs both teams could suffer from. The Nuggets' last three games have registered at least 240 total points, and while only three of the last seven from Phoenix have had 230 or more total points, the travelling could take a toll on a depleted Phoenix team that's missing depth across the board. They allowed 123 points to the Thunder on Friday and could suffer against the Nuggets, led by Nikola Jokic, on short rest.
