Eric Bledsoe Under 15.5 Points

Bledsoe is coming off his best offensive performance of the season, as he put up 27 points on 8-for-12 shooting from the field and 4-for-6 from beyond the arc against Brooklyn on New Year’s Day. It was his fifth double figure scoring effort in his last six games. He has played exceptionally well during the previous 10 games as the Clippers dealt with COVID and various other injuries, compiling 15.1 points and 5.5 assists while posting a shooting slash line of .487/.459/.750.

Bledsoe has struggled in three previous outings against Minnesota. The Timberwolves have limited Bledsoe to 29 points on 33.3% shooting from the field and just 15.4% from the 3-point line though he has doled out 20 assists. The Timberwolves are holding opposing shooting guards to the third-lowest shooting percentage at 39.9% for the season. He is projected for 13.67 points tonight. OddsShopper gives the under a 65% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 32%.

Donovan Mitchell Under 27.5 Points

Mitchell had a tremendous December. However, he is coming off his shooting performance of the season against Golden State on Saturday, where he finished with 20 points on just 4-for-19 shooting from the field. Mitchell has had a rough time against the Pelicans this year as he has put 18.5 points along with 6.5 assists and 5.5 rebounds while shooting 39.5% from the field, with both games being in Utah. New Orleans gives up the seventh-fewest points to opposing shooting guards, and they have been lately. The Pelicans have held opposing 2-guards to 19.5 points and 2.8 triples on 39.8% shooting from the field, along with 31.8% shooting from beyond the arc over the last five contests. Mitchell is projected for 24.32 points. OddsShopper gives the under a 68% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 26%.

Patty Mills Over 14.5 Points

Mills continues to shoot the lights out from downtown. Mills knocked down 5 of 9 3-pointers to finish with 17 points against the Clippers on Saturday, marking the 19th game in the last 21 outings that he has drained multiple 3-pointers in a game. He averages a career-best 3.4 3-pointers while making those shots at a personal-best 44.9% clip this year.

Mills has scored in double figures in 18 of his last 21 outings and averaged 17.5 points in December. Granted, he took advantage of a higher usage percentage as the Nets dealt with many injuries and a COVID breakout. However, Mills has a terrific matchup tonight against Memphis. The Grizzlies give up the fifth-most points to opposing 2-guards, and they struggle to defend the 3-point line. Opposing shooting guards are making 3.3 treys a game at a 37.4% rate.

Detroit-Milwaukee Under 226.5 Points

The Pistons did not match up well with the Bucks when they were fully healthy. Detroit will head into Milwaukee very shorthanded tonight, with seven players listed as out for the game. The list includes two starters and three of its top five starters. So, the question begs, where are the Pistons’ points going to come from? Detroit, the lowest-scoring team in the league, has registered a league-worst effective field goal percentage of 47.9% over the last 10 games.

Moreover, the Pistons have not scored over 93 points against the Bucks this year, and their two games have finished well below the 227-point threshold. OddsShopper projects that the Bucks will win the game handily, with the total points being 222. The under is given a 57% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 8%.
