Steven Adams

Over 8.5 Rebounds

$1.74

It was a large workload for Adams last game and without Sengun for some time, we should see more of the same. Back-to-back games against Portland, should see Adams playing close to 30 minutes, if the games remain close.

Adams finished with 11 rebounds against Phoenix and should have had himself a double double, if it wasn’t for his awful free throw shooting, finishing 0/4. Although Houston are still running with their extremely tall lineup, the lack of Alpy at centre is probably felt the most in rebounding.

Adams will be able to deal with the size of Donovan Clingan and wont mind if things get a bit physical, as he has made a career out of competing with the big fellas.

Next Best

Denver Nuggets @ Boston Celtics (11:10am)

Luka Garza

Over 13.5PR

Bet Now

$1.78

He hurt us last time we backed him, but his numbers are too strong to ignore and I’m ready for Luka to repay the Betseeker faithful.

Over his last four games, his minutes are up to 21.8 per game and in that time, he is scoring 11.3 points and 4.8 rebounds. Boston has a gaping hole at power forward that they are rotationally trying to find a solution and slowly Garza has started to gather Queta’s minutes at Centre. The Celtics have stormed into second seed in the East and own a 4-game win streak.

Denver is without Jokic and Valanciunas leaving a mosquito brigade and an inexperienced centre in DaRon Holmes. Garza gets a great opportunity here to continue his recent stretch of form.

Value Bet

Toronto Raptors @ CHarlotte Hornets (11:10am)

Miles Bridges

8+ Rebounds

Bet Now

$2.45

Bridges has double digit rebounds in three of his last five games including a monster 14 rebound game against Chicago.

His season average sits at 6.5RPG but the average over his last fortnight is much higher at 9RPG. Charlotte have been without centrepiece rookie Ryan Kalkbrenner for some time and there has been a clear emphasis on rebounding from Bridges.

A great matchup here against Toronto, who have been leaking rebounds to power forwards 11% above average, over the past three weeks.

Bridges 8+ Rebounds/ Ball 15+ Points/ Shead 4+ Assists
