Sacramento Kings vs. New Orleans Pelicans Pick

1.5u - Domantas Sabonis o5.5 1Q Points (-135) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

This bet is a hidden gem and will be my biggest of the day. Domantas Sabonis has this this prop in seven straight games and is averaging 9.7 first quarter points in that span. Only three players have averaged more first quarter points than him in this span and that is Joel Embiid, Shia Gilgeous-Alexander and Kevin Durant.

Sacramento Kings vs. New Orleans Pelicans Prediction

Sabonis just played New Orleans and had seven points in the first quarter. People will be scared off of Sabonis props today because last games blowout and they will just look at the box score but he didn’t play in the whole fourth quarter due to blowout. That won’t even be a concern for us with this bet.

New Orleans allows the seventh most points to Centers and Sabonis has been getting active early. We just need three buckets and he should play ten minutes or so. This is a smash spot and think it’s the sneakiest find I’ve had all season. Let's roll!
