Under 4.5 Rebounds (-142, FanDuel)

While Russell has exceeded his per-game rebounding average of 4.1 in both games since returning to the Timberwolves lineup, both the props market and OddsShopper are feeling bearish about his chances of doing so against the Lakers tonight. Despite finishing with five and eight boards in the last two games, the NBA betting odds are juiced heavily to the under on Russell’s prop total of 4.5 for tonight. With a projection for exactly 4.04 rebounds, OddsShopper is inclined to agree with the market. OddsShopper shows -142 odds that are up to 18 cents better than those at other sportsbooks. At the preferred price, this wager has been assigned an 8% expected ROI to go along with a 63% expected win probability.

Under 22.5 Points (-105, DraftKings)

While the smallest edge OddsShopper has for Russell NBA player props tonight is for his scoring total, playing under 22.5 points is still considered to have a positive expected ROI. The ROI for this under prediction hinges on playing favorable -105 odds, which are currently up to 15 cents better than other prices in the betting market.

With point totals of 16 and 18 in his two games since rejoining the lineup, Russell has now fallen short of the NBA betting total in six of his last seven games played. He only averages 18.8 points per game on the season, a number that falls well below the over/under line. While his scoring prop is undoubtedly elevated due to Anthony Edwards landing in health and safety protocol, this same development will also allow the Lakers to focus more attention on Russell defensively.
