🔥 Domantas Sabonis to record a triple-double ⭐⭐

Sabonis has recorded a double-double in 61 of his 70 appearances this season. He's trading at -650 with our best sports betting apps to make it 62 in 71, so we're being a bit more ambitious with this pick. We're recommending Sabonis to record a triple-double at two-star confidence because of the value it presents.

The Sacramento big man has taken a step back in the triple-double department, posting just 10 during the regular season. He's tallying double digits in three categories at a 14.29% clip. This number tells us he should have odds around +600 to record another against Dallas, but DraftKings is offering some value at +700.

Sabonis hasn't recorded a triple-double against the Mavericks this season, but he has gotten close. He averaged 16.5 points, 15.5 rebounds, and 7.5 assists per game across his two duels with Dallas. If he notches his first against this opponent, a $10 winning wager would return $70 in profits.

🔥 Klay Thompson Under 13.5 points ⭐⭐⭐

It doesn't need to be said that Dallas misses Kyrie Irving. However, nobody is feeling the impact of the elite playmaker's absence as much as Thompson. The catch-and-shoot two-guard has suffered statistically since Irving's torn ACL, enduring his worst scoring month of the season thus far (9.2 PPG) in April.

Thompson has gone Under this total in eight of his last 13 games over the last month, including single-digit scoring outputs in three of the last five and one of two this season against Sacramento. We're still fading Thompson, but we recommend this play at three-star confidence due to his postseason pedigree from years past.

🔢 Klay Thompson player prop bet odds

🔥 DeMar DeRozan Under 24.5 points ⭐⭐⭐⭐

DeRozan is showing no signs of slowing down as a scorer, averaging 20-plus points for the 12th consecutive campaign during his debut season in Sacramento. All of that being said, his point total is too high for our taste against Dallas.

DeRozan has averaged over 25 points over three meetings with the Mavericks this year, despite clearing the total just once in a 42-point effort in February. However, he's gone Under at a 60% clip over his last 10 appearances and in 11 of his last 15 postseason outings dating back to 2018.
