Tre Mann 20+ Points: +225 (Bet $100 to Collect $325) -- FanDuel has the best odds, click here to bet

FanDuel is the spot for this one as I don't see alt lines anywhere else for this game. It should be noted that DraftKings has this kid's standard points line at 14.5 (-145) while FanDuel has 15.5 (-120). Even in the made-threes department, DraftKings has 1.5 (-180) to FanDuel's 2.5 (+158). I don't really know what to make of all that but it's interesting nonetheless.

So obviously this is a pretty wild move but we're getting paid for it so there's that. I like +225 for something like this. This kid is very inconsistent but when he's on, he's on. The first thing I noticed when I saw him for the first time this season was that he has gained weight. Just last season he looked like he had to run around in the shower to get wet. We're talking skinny. Now, he looks like a grown man. I'd say he's probably gained 20 pounds. I know this isn't football where weight means so much but it's still a good thing.

But this play isn't so much about Mann's physique as it's about the Thunder not playing anybody. Josh Giddey is out and so is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Sure SGA was out last game and Mann only scored 10 points but the guy took 12 shots including six from behind the arc. Unfortunately, he missed all six of the treys. Those would have helped. The thing is, I've seen this kid drop 20 in a quarter before so he's got it in him. He just needs to be on.

That night could come tonight against the Los Angeles Clippers who will be without Paul George and Marcus Morris. That really shouldn't be too much of a problem since Los Angeles has a giant rotation but still, it's something. The thing I like the most is that only one team in the NBA has seen their opponents take more threes per game than the Clippers (Minnesota). If that's the route the Thunder go tonight, I bet Mann takes more than his fair share and if he's hitting them, he'll just keep shooting. Let's hope he's on.
