Fish's Slippery Player Picks Tuesday (YTD: 72-64)

Team,

Had a delicious 2-0 win last night. That's what we want.

Bam Adebayo Over 15.5 Rebounds + Assists

Mostly this is a rebounds bet, but the assists is a little added insurance IMO since Butler is seemingly a good chance to miss. Bam has had at least 10 boards in nine of his last ten games (his line is set at 10.5), while in his those games he also has at least 4 every game and 6+ on seven occasions. Overall his rebs + assists totals during that time read like this: 18, 18, 16, 18, 16, 22, 12, 19, 16, 21. So basically he has covered this nine of his last ten games, and the Heat's highest usage guy may miss this game. Yes pls.

Michael Porter Jr Over 8.5 Rebounds

I've been kicking myself for not jumping on this over the last couple of games since I heard the Nugs commentators mention that the coaching staff have been on MPJ to get more boards a couple of games ago. Clearly it's had an effect, because his rebound numbers in his last four games are 10, 10, 10 and 15. The bookies' line is following him up but based on the aforementioned figures it's not quite enough. With his size he's easily capable of being a double double guy most nights and he's playing that way of late.

Kyle Kuzma Over 6.5 Rebounds

Was on this last game and he had 11 boards in just 20 minutes as the Lakers blew out the Warriors, so with no line adjustment from bookies I'm jumping straight back on. His last four games now read 11, 7, 11 and 11, and the last three of those have been blowouts so he's played less than 25 minutes. He's also covered it in eight of his past ten games, and without AD in the line-up looks likely to keep doing that for the time being.

Good luck!

might follow you on the 10.5 rebounds for Bam....his line was finally posted at my book
