There are 8 games in the NBA on Monday night. Three have a line of 4 points or less and 2 have a line of at least 14.5 points. Four games have a total of at least 231 points. As always, stay up to date on the latest injury news since lines can change. Bets may be added throughout the day if additional spots that arise, so be sure to check back later in the day. My record is 64-45-1 for the season. Here are my picks for tonight.
Tyrese Maxey over 17.5 points (-115 on DraftKings)
Tyrese Maxey has scored 28, 21, 25 and 33 points in 4 games for the 76ers when playing with James Harden. He has taken 16, 12, 14 and 15 shots from field, hitting 14-for-20 from 3-point range. Maxey was playing well before Harden arrived, averaging 18.9 points in February. He has gone over this line in 9 of the last 14 games, and the Bulls have struggled to defend guards, ranking 22nd in defensive efficiency. Maxey scored 17 points against Miami on Saturday, but Harden didn’t play in that game, and the Heat are 5th in defensive efficiency. The 76ers have scored 133, 125, 123 and 125 points with Harden and Maxey has played a big part. Maxey is also appealing for his over 1.5 3-pointers prop.
Rudy Gobert over 25.5 points + rebounds (-115 on DraftKings)
Rudy Gobert played for the Utah Jazz last night and had 12 points and 17 rebounds against the Thunder. He is averaging 15.7 points and 14.8 rebounds per game. He has gone over this total in 4 of 5 games since returning from his calf injury. He was limited in his first 2 games back, but before that he went over this total in 10 consecutive games. Gobert faced Dallas on February 17 and had 14 points and 17 rebounds. You could also consider the over on his rebound prop, which I was able to get at 12.5.
Saddiq Bey over 24.5 points + rebounds + assists (-120 on BetMGM)
Saddiq Bey has gone over this total in 8 of the last 10 games. The Pistons have been playing well lately, winning 5 of their last 7 games and Bey has played a big part. Bey averaged 17.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists in February. In the last 3 games, he is averaging 22.3 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists. He has scored at least 23 points in 3 of the last 4 games and scored at least 20 in 6 of the last 9. The Hawks are 27th in defensive efficiency and shouldn’t put up much resistance.
