Let's get into today's top plays!
OVER 22.5 Points
McCollum has wasted no time asserting himself as the go-to scoring option for the Pelicans as evidenced by his production of late where he has scored 30+ points in three of the last four games. New Orleans recently made a lineup shift which has Devontae Graham now coming off the bench. This move takes a shooter off the floor and creates more opportunities for McCollum to have the ball in his hands. With the Pelicans, McCollum has a team-best 29.7% usage rate and he is averaging 0.73 points per minute. In two games against the Suns this season McCollum is averaging 23.0 points per game. We saw Shai Gilgeous-Alexander have zero trouble scoring the basketball last night against the Suns so let's see if CJM can have the same success.

Over 14.5 Points
We had this play in the Discord last night at 15.5 points and he hit the over, scoring 21 points. We now get Bridges in a better matchup with a cheaper point total. I know this game is the second of a back-to-back but it is hard to look at the recent production from Bridges, the fact that there is no Chris Paul OR Aaron Holiday tonight and not like what we see here. Bridges has hit the over on 14.5 points in eight of the last 10 games as you can see from the chart below and against the Pelicans this season he has gone for 22 and 23 points in their two meetings. Everything is pointing in the right direction for this one to be a hit.
Mikal Bridges L10 Game Point Totals
Over 19.5 Points
We have Bridges wild here tonight as both brothers make an appearance. Miles Bridges finds himself running up against the Raptors who be without OG Anunoby tonight who is one of their better wing defenders. In two games against Toronto this season Bridges has scored 22 and 25 points and over the last six games, he has hit the over 19.5 points total in five of those contests which included one game against these Raptors. This game has a nice 225 total and just a 2-point spread.
Miles Bridges L5 Game Point Totals
Over 17.5 Points
The disrespect seems real here. Morris has scored over 17.5 points in six of the last eight games he has played during the month of February. He has also had zero trouble against the Lakers this year, averaging 25.0 points in two matchups, scoring a high of 29 points back on February 3rd. The Lakers are without Anthony Davis tonight which takes away one of the team's best defenders and could lead to more playing time for the returning Carmelo Anthony who is a turnstile on the defensive end of the floor. Let's ride Morris in this matchup tonight as he seems to get up for these big games against the Lakers.
