Aaron Gordon: Denver Nuggets

It was only a matter of time before the Nuggets axed their backup center and used Gordon in that role. In the seven minutes Nikola Jokic was off the floor, Gordon was the center on the floor. It’s interesting he had FOUR rebounds during that span. That being said, he’s averaged 13.5 potential rebounds per game and the number set doesn’t correlate with that. He’s gone over in both playoff games despite getting in foul trouble in Game 1. Michael Porter Jr., averaging nine rebounds/game this series, has averaged 2.5 less potentials per game.

  • Pick: More than 6.5 Rebounds (1.8)
 

Joel Embiid: Philadelphia 76ers

The three-point volume has been really high for Joel Embiid since returning from his knee injury because he’s not 100%. He’s being forced to settle for a lot more jump shots, which is why he’s started off this series taking 17 threes in two games. For the year, he averaged 3.6 3PA per game. Since returning from injury on April 2nd, he’s averaged 6.3 3PA per game. He’s hit at least two three’s in seven straight games thanks to the influx of volume.

  • Pick: More than 1.5 Made 3-Pointers (1.5x)

Franz Wagner: Orlando Magic

One of the more interesting things I’ve found while doing my research today is the Franz Wagner potential assists. Wagner sat around 3.5 assists per game this season averaging 3.7, but through two playoff games as the ball has been in his hands more, including a 37% USG rate last game, he’s averaged 13.5 potential assists per game. Only six players have averaged more and the names ahead of him are Jokic, Doncic, James, Haliburton, Herro, and Murray. The Magic, going back home, should settle in and hit a few more shots on Wagner passes

  • Pick: More than 3.5 assists (1.8x)

Total Multiplier: 5.1X
