Matisse Thybulle PrizePicks NBA Pick: Higher 1.5 Three-Pointers Made
Thybulle has settled into the Lakers' starting lineup as a defensive stopper who can space the floor. He's made 12 threes through five games, averaging 2.4 makes on 4.8 attempts and shooting 50.0% from deep in 24.6 minutes. He's coming off his best shooting night of the season, going 4-of-5 from three for 15 points in Wednesday's 103-87 win over the Clippers, and he's cleared this line in three of five games.
The looks will keep coming. Playing next to Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves means plenty of catch-and-shoot chances, and Thybulle shot 39.8% from three across 30 games in Portland last season.
Golden State is the right opponent. The Warriors allow 119.2 points per 100 possessions, third-worst in the league according to ESPN's Hollinger team stats, and the Lakers beat them 127-105 in the opener. The Lakers are favored with a total around 234.5. Thybulle at Higher 1.5 threes leads our PrizePicks NBA picks.
Ausar Thompson PrizePicks NBA Pick: Higher 3.5 Assists
Thompson is healthy and rolling. He's back from the ankle sprain he suffered against Miami, and he's coming off a season-high eight assists to go with nine rebounds in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 97-89 win over Charlotte.
The playmaking role is real. Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said during the offseason that Detroit wants to see Thompson become a playmaker this season, and he's averaging 5.0 assists in 26.8 minutes through four games. He's cleared this line in three of four, with five against Boston, five in just 19 minutes against Miami, and eight against Charlotte. The only miss came Tuesday in New York, when foul trouble held him to two assists, and he fouled out with six personal fouls.
Brooklyn is 0-4 and allows 115.6 points per 100 possessions, per ESPN's Hollinger team stats, and Detroit is a 7.5-point road favorite. With Jalen Duren still sidelined, the Pistons need their wings to create. Add Thompson to your PrizePicks NBA picks at Higher 3.5 assists, one of our favorite NBA props for Friday.
