Scottie Barnes PrizePicks NBA Pick — More 7.5 Assists
Toronto Raptors at Detroit Pistons | 8:00 PM ET
Scottie Barnes is in the middle of one of the most dominant playmaking stretches of his career, and the Detroit Pistons without Cade Cunningham present an ideal matchup to extend it.
Barnes has recorded double-digit assists in four consecutive games, averaging 12.3 assists over that stretch with a career-high 15 dimes against Orlando on Sunday in a 139-87 blowout win. Since Immanuel Quickley went down with plantar fasciitis, Barnes has taken on the full playmaking burden, recording 49 assists to just 11 turnovers during Quickley's absence. He is the engine of everything Toronto does offensively, averaging 18.6 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 5.8 assists on the season, with his assist average spiking dramatically in this recent run. Brandon Ingram has also missed time with a heel injury, concentrating even more of the offensive initiation on Barnes' shoulders.
The Pistons continue to be without Cade Cunningham, who remains sidelined with a collapsed lung. Detroit's defense has been permissive during this injury stretch, and they rank third in the league in points allowed per contest at 109.5, suggesting a high-tempo game environment where the ball moves freely. Barnes thrives in those conditions, and four consecutive double-digit assist games against a shorthanded Detroit team make this one of the most straightforward More picks on the Tuesday board.
Luka Doncic PrizePicks NBA Pick — More 33.5 Points
Cleveland Cavaliers at Los Angeles Lakers | 10:30 PM ET
Luka Doncic served his one-game suspension Monday night and returns to action Tuesday fresh, motivated, and against a Cavaliers team that is shorthanded after its own back-to-back.
Doncic leads the NBA in scoring at 33.7 points per game, and over his last 12 games, he has been on an otherworldly run, averaging 39.7 points per game over that stretch. His most recent appearances were 41 points on 15-of-25 shooting against the Brooklyn Nets last Friday and 43 points on 15-of-30 shooting against the Indiana Pacers the Wednesday prior. He has scored at least 30 points in 10 consecutive games, and the Lakers are 13-2 in March with Doncic as the clear offensive engine. After a mandatory night off on Monday, expect him to come back hungry and aggressive from the opening tip.
The Cleveland angle adds further value. The Cavaliers are playing the second night of their own back-to-back after traveling to Salt Lake City to face the Jazz on Monday, and several key pieces remain out with injuries. Evan Mobley will be running high minutes as the primary big, but Cleveland's perimeter defenders will be fatigued from back-to-back travel. Doncic at 33.5 against a tired road defense, with a night of rest while his team played without him, and coming off back-to-back 40-plus point performances, is one of the cleanest scoring props on the board.
