PRIZEPICKSPacers vs. Trail Blazers NBA PrizePicks Predictions
Here are the Pacers vs. Trail Blazers NBA PrizePicks predictions for tonight:
Jerami Grant Less Than 3.5 Rebounds
Grant’s rebounding outlook against Indiana leans strongly toward less than this number. Recent trends show him averaging 2.25 rebounds over his last 8 games. Our projections reinforce this, with our projections giving him 2.82 rebounds with a 64.8% probability for Grant staying below 3.5 and a 7.1% edge compared to market expectations.
Rockets vs. Nets NBA PrizePicks Predictions
Here are the Rockets vs. Nets NBA PrizePicks predictions for tonight:
Trendon Watford Less Than 12.5 Points + Rebounds
Watford’s recent production and role make him likely to stay below 12.5 combined points/rebounds against Houston. In his last outing against the Rockets (Feb 1), he recorded 6 points and 5 rebounds in 15 minutes – typical output given his bench role averaging 10-15 minutes nightly.
We project him at 10.41 Points + Rebounds with a 64.3% hit rate and a 6.5% edge.
Heat vs. Bulls NBA PrizePicks Predictions
Here are the Heat vs. Bulls NBA PrizePicks predictions for tonight:
Duncan Robinson Less Than 6.5 Rebounds + Assists
Robinson’s perimeter-focused role (38.0% 3-point shooting) and limited rebounding/playmaking involvement make him likely to stay below 6.5 combined rebounds/assists against Chicago. His season averages (2.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists) align with our 5.43 projection, while recent starts show 5 instances exceeding this threshold in his last 10 games.
Per our Defense vs. Archetypes Tool this matchup vs. the Bulls is a below-average matchup for rebounding in Robinson’s role.
With our simulations showing a 62.7% success probability and a 5% statistical edge, the matchup favors below-average production.
