Best Bets

Tyrese Maxey over 2.5 threes (-156) at Bucks

FanDuel, 3:17 PM CT

Alex Barutha: Over the past 10 games, Milwaukee is allowing the third-most three-point makes to opponents. Specifically, they've allowed the fifth-most makes to point guards and third-most to shooting guards over the past 30 days. That lines up well for Maxey, who is making 3.0 triples per game at 40% since Feb. 1.

Donte DiVincenzo over 2.5 steals+blocks (+114) at Trail Blazers

DraftKings, 3:14 PM CT

Alex Barutha: I took the over on Dejounte Murray's STL+BLK against Portland last night, which hit. Now I'm going back to the well against the Blazers, who are allowing the second-most blocks and steals per game to opponents over the past 10. DiVincenzo is proficient in both categories, averaging 1.7 steals and 0.8 blocks since the All-Star break.

Jalen Brunson O6.5 assists at Portland (-145)

DraftKings Sportsbook, 2:30pm CT

Nick Whalen: While the Knicks aren't exactly lighting it up on offense these days, Brunson has amassed 17 assists over his last two games and should be able to take advantage of a Blazers team that ranks in the top 10 in the NBA this season in assists allowed to opponents. In their last meeting back on Jan. 9 – a blowout win for the Knicks – Brunson registered seven dimes in just 26 minutes of action.
