You can also find out our NBA picks for all the big matchups today and throughout the entire 2024-25 season.
Brandon Miller (CHA) Over 20.5 points + assists (-105)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Brandon Miller does not shy away from shooting himself out of a slump. Over his last 5 games, Miller is shooting 31/88 from the field, including 56 attempts from deep. The Charlotte Hornets seem fully content with Miller chucking up 20+ shots per game. After all, he is their future.
Miller is taking much more 3-pointers and less mid-range shots than last season. We’re seeing that adjustment firsthand, but we’re banking on Miller breaking out of that slump. He’s shooting just 26% on “very open” shot attempts.

Stephon Castle (SAS) Under 15.5 points + rebounds (-105)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Stephon Castle will be a great pro in this league for years. But on Tuesday Night against an Oklahoma City Thunder elite perimeter defense, I project him to struggle to score the ball. In the last game without Victor Wembanyama, Castle shot 4/11 from the field and missed many shots inside the paint. He also had 11 assist opportunities, so we’ll pivot away from them.
Devin Vassell will return to action on Tuesday after missing Saturday’s game. He’s set for 10+ field goal attempts, while Chris Paul will also eat at Castle’s usage. The Thunder can throw many bodies at Castle, even with an undersized frontcourt.
