Pelicans vs. Bucks, 6.30PM ET

Milwaukee and New Orleans only meet each other twice a season but when they do you can well and truly count on Giannis Antetokounmpo to show up and show out. The reigning Finals MVP averages 36 points, 12 rebounds and 5 assists against the Pels over his last three career games and is in similar ominous form recently with three games in a row of 28 points or more. The blowout factor is a small concern, however, Giannis has been putting up these video game numbers in 30 minutes or less anyway. He's a stat-stuffer across the board and we like him to fill it up once again.

BET: Giannis Antetokounmpo OVER 46.5 points+rebounds+assists (Best odds -111)

Bulls vs. Wizards, 7.00PM ET

Chicago is rolling and so is their big man Nikola Vucevic. Vooch has now notched a double double in four straight games and that does not look like a trend that will be stopping when the Bulls kickstart their year against a struggling Wizards team that has lost 7 of their last 10 games. The double double market on its own has little value at the moment for Vucevic, so this calls for a player performance double.

BET Nikola Vucevic double double/Chicago win (Best odds +154)

Clippers vs. Nets, 7.30PM ET

It's scary hours in Brooklyn right now. KD is back from COVID, Kyrie is suiting up for road games now, and James Harden is back to his brilliant best. The Beard has been dishing dimes and scoring points - notching a 30 piece in three straight games. His usage rate over his last three is 35.9% which is exactly what you want from someone you are betting on in a prop market. We can be guaranteed that whether it's scoring or assisting, Harden is going to be involved somehow.

BET: James Harden OVER 36.5 points+assists (Best odds -104)
