Toumani Camara over 2.5 made threes (+107) at New Orleans Pelicans

DraftKings, 2:21 PM CT

Alex Barutha: The Pelicans are giving up the most threes to opponents per 48 minutes (16.0) across the past 10 games. Maybe the return of Herb Jones helps them guard the perimeter, but I need to see it first from a team this bad. Camara's three-point shooting has admittedly been up and down, but he's still making 2.4 per game on 33.9 percent -- good enough for a situation like this.

Herbert Jones over 1.5 STL+BLK (-146) vs. Portland Trail Blazers

DraftKings, 4:30 PM CT

Nick Whalen: Jones made his return to action on Monday against the Spurs and promptly put up four steals and a block in just 26 minutes. I would expect that workload to slightly extend tonight against a Blazers team that's surrendering the second-most steals and second-most blocks in the NBA over the last 10 games. Jones is averaging north of 1.5 steals per game, alone, on the season.

Myles Turner Over 12.5 Points (-111) vs. Boston Celtics

DraftKings, 1:34 PM CT

Ryan Pohle: In the eight games Giannis has missed this season, Turner has gone over this total six times. He's averaging 16.4 points during that stretch as he sees a 2.9 percent usage bump with Milwaukee's star off the court. Additionally, Turner could be relied on for more scoring if AJ Green (questionable/shoulder) misses a second straight game. The Celtics have been worse on the defensive side of the ball this season and rank 20th in three pointers allowed per game and 22nd in opponent three-point percentage. Expect Turner to get some good looks from the perimeter.
