This line might seem high for someone who averages just 34.6 points, assists and rebounds. LaMelo Ball has posted consecutive 30-point games, however, including a 34, four and seven effort against these Wizards a couple of days ago.
Washington leads the league in pace. Their defence is awful. Charlotte also likes to get out and run (third in pace), which means plenty of extra possessions for Ball to put up hefty numbers. He’s a consistent triple-double threat, and as he showed in his last outing, he can get to this over even if he’s a long way shy of a triple-double.
This number is just too low not to take the over. We like the value here.

For all the talk about Victor Wembanyama’s Defensive Player of the Year candidacy, the Spurs again have the worst defensive rating in the league. San Antonio is also bottom-10 in shot quality conceded, and faces a Minnesota team which has dropped 120+ points in two of its last three.
Much of the T-Wolves offence runs through Anthony Edwards. A statement, game-winning performance against the Celtics grabbed the headlines, but Edwards has been brilliant throughout the first fortnight of the season.
Averaging 27.9 per game, Edwards has cleared this line in three of his last five outings. The Spurs are also ninth in pace.
Sat, Nov 11. 01:10 (UK time)
The Jazz are bottom-10 in three-point attempts allowed per game. They are above-average in pace (contributing to the high number of threes conceded), and only the Spurs have a worse defensive rating.
Memphis’ offence hasn’t exactly been potent to start the season, but one constant has been Jaren Jackson Jr getting up shots from beyond the arc. The reigning DPOY has fired exactly eight threes in three of his last four games, and that volume should maintain for Friday’s contest.
This price looks superb value given Jackson’s shooting ability and Utah’s inability to stop the long ball. If he’s taking eight or more threes again, we like his chances of making at least three.
