This one we’re getting for great odds. Carter isn’t known as an automatic double but he seems to take advantage whenever he’s in a favorable matchup. He has three double-doubles on the season in seven games but tonight seems like a night he notches another one. Carter has a reb prop juiced at o9.5 on every book and betting on this is a massive juice reducer by adding his points. He is seven out of seven on scoring 10+ points this year and his prop is juiced at 15.5.

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Orlando Magic Prediction

So why is this something we must bet on? Oklahoma City is the perfect matchup. With Poku starting at center for them they can’t limit big men from doing either rebounding or scoring. OKC is allowing the second most rebounds and fifth most points to centers. OKC has allowed a double-double to the center in five out of six games and the only miss was Dallas who starts Dwight Powell.

This game projects to be close so I like Carter to see his usual 33+ minutes and hopefully clean up on the glass. Since Banchero came to Orlando we have seen Carter’s rebound numbers slightly decrease but you would hope Banchero is defending Dort on the perimeter clearing the paint for Carter to grab some easy boards. This is our first time needing rebounds in a bet all year, let's see if holding off was worth the wait or not and if we can kick off November with a win. Let's roll!
