Pickswise was nice enough to give me the opportunity to write my plays up for you all. For those of you who don’t know me, they refer to me as JutPicks on Twitter. I post all my plays with brief write-ups every day. Now I get to write even more with no character limit!
I pride myself in being as transparent as they come. My NBA record from last season and this season are listed in my bio alongside with my MLB record. Without further ado, let’s dive into my favorite play for Sunday.
Tyrese Haliburton (Kings) over 7.5 Assists (+105)
Line available at Draftkings at the time of publishing.
Boy has Haliburton made the Kings one of the most exciting backcourts in the league. De’Aaron Fox and Haliburton combine for 33 points per game along with over 11 assists. Tyrese has set up his teammates quite well as of late. He has recorded at least 10 assists in 7 of his last 10 games along with 16 potential assist opportunities.
Now, everyone knows Miami has a stout defense. They allow the 8th least assist per game and play at one of slowest paces in the league. We did just see Spencer Dinwiddie record 11 assists on December 28th and Tyrese is more than capable of recording yet another double-double like he has in 3 straight.
Haliburton has gone over this line in 8 of his last 10 home games and with a spread of about 3 in favor of Miami, we should see the Kings point guard play well over 30 minutes.
