There are plenty of games on the NBA slate to make some money tonight and that is exactly what we are looking to do. There are a few players I will be targeting tonight to cash our bets. The three players we will be looking at are: Deandre Ayton, Mikal Bridges, and DeMar DeRozan.

Deandre Ayton Under 20.5 Points and Assists -130 Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
One of my favorite bets to place is Deandre Ayton unders in away games. Ayton averages 14.7 points and 1.8 assists in away games this season. The last time Ayton played against the Magic he got 15 PA in a close game at the start of the season. The Magic allow the least points to centers in the last 15 games and the fourth least in the season. I'm playing this with assists because he has averaged only one assist per game in the last five games. Jerami Grant is doubtful but if he plays it decreases the volume of Ayton which is better. I will also be targeting the under in this high blowout potential game with a 16 point spread and low point total.
Mikal Bridges Under 18.5 Points -113 Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
With Cam Thomas now being the main scorer for the Nets, Bridges hasn't been the same player he was to start the season. In his last five games, he has been averaging 17.5 points and only gone over this line in two out of five games. When the Nets faced the Pacers two weeks ago, he only had seven points in 29 minutes. The Pacers are also allowing the second least catch and shoot attempts this season and Bridges takes the second most attempts in the last seven games. The Pacers also allow the eighth least points to small forwards in the last seven games. There is also a high blowout risk with a 12.5 point spread for the Pacers tonight.
DeMar DeRozan Over 4.5 Assists -138 Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
DeMar DeRozan has been averaging 5.4 assists in the last five games, going over this line in three of his last five. DeMar has been dishing more these past few games and is coming off of a eight assists game yesterday where he distributed the ball nicely. DeMar has went over this line in eight out of his last ten games and averages 6.1 assists versus the Hawks. The Hawks have been solid defending points to small forwards this season but the allow the most assists to small forwards this season. This is also a home game for the Bulls and they have a 2.5 point spread which means less likely to have a blowout and more minutes for DeMar.
