This number won’t last. I project him at 34

Not a guy who tails for the most part but when PropStarz and Barner both agree on a prop we have to take a serious look, and they seem to be spot on for this one. They can explain it better than I.

Credit to my colleague Mike Barner for first hopping on this play but I am in full agreement, this is a wildly inflated line for Miles Bridges. The Hornets will be without their leading scorer in LaMelo Ball tonight. Bridges averages a combined 31.2 PRA on the season, however his numbers are nearly identical with and without Lamelo Ball in the lineup. The Bulls are an above average defensively and play at the third slowest pace in the league. This is an auto fade regardless of opponent but love that he'll be in a paced down environment.

Zach LaVine, Patrick Williams, Torrey Craig and Dalen Terry are all expected to miss this game. Ayo Dosunmu has averaged 15.5 points over 30 minutes per game over the last eight games because the Bulls are dealing with so many injuries. Tuesday, he scored 21 points over 39 minutes against the Raptors. With the expectation that Dosunmu plays around 40 minutes again, and with the Hornets having the worst defensive rating in the league, the over is the way to go here.

LaMelo Ball (ankle) is expected to miss his third straight game for the Hornets. The last two games without him, Miles Bridges finished with exactly 36 combined points, rebounds and assists both times. Over his last 20 games, Bridges is averaging 38 minutes. Still, he finished with fewer than 40 combined points, rebounds and assists in 19 of those games. The Bulls have played at the slowest pace in the league, so I love this under.
