Anthony Davis H/L Than 3.5 Assists
I don’t usually target assist props for big men, but this one stood out.
Stokastic’s NBA DFS Projections have Anthony Davis pegged for five assists tonight — well above his listed prop. That kind of gap is tough to ignore.
He’s averaging 3.5 assists on the season, but this matchup sets up for more. The Mavericks are six-point underdogs against a smart, disciplined defense — one that knows how to force the ball out of AD’s hands.
If the game script plays out as expected, Davis will be under pressure to keep his teammates involved. That should lead to plenty of assist opportunities as Dallas tries to stay in it.
Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Prediction: Anthony Davis Higher Than 3.5 Assists
Dyson Daniels H/L Than 4.5 Assists
We’re targeting another assist prop for our second wager tonight — this time in the Play-In matchup between the Atlanta Hawks and Miami Heat.
Dyson Daniels is averaging 4.4 assists per game, but I’m expecting him to exceed that tonight — and so do Stokastic’s NBA DFS Projections, which have him projected for five.
Daniels has posted 7, 8, and 9 assists over his last three games. Miami’s defense is aggressive and forces teams into tough offensive sets, often leading to more ball movement. That should create plenty of chances for a facilitator like Daniels to rack up assists.
