The Kings are defending the three much better to start this season allowing 31% than they were last season when they allowed 38%. The addition of Dennis Schroder and Russell Westbrook will continue to help them improve but not by this much. The Kings played a tough game where they nearly upset the Thunder in OKC. Playing a back-to-back road game after an emotional loss can sap the defense in the 2nd game. Chicago has shot 37% from 3pt range in each of their first 3 games during this 3-0 start. Josh Giddey is 5-12 to start the season from 3pt range. Since Giddey started 'blowing up' in the 2nd half of last season he is 23-12 over 1.5 made threes with a 1.9 average.

Caesar’s/DK. Tre Jones has recorded at least eight assists in each of his first three games. As the Bulls are without Coby White, Jones has been thrust into the starting lineup, and leads Chicago in potential assists with 14 per game. While the Kings grade out as an average matchup for opponent assists, this line is too low for Jones’ current role. I’d bet this to -145.

Tre Jones has been starting for the Bulls with Coby White (calf) out. Not only is he starting, but he has logged at least 29 minutes in all three of their games. The added playing time has helped Jones dish out at least eight assists in each game. During a nine-game stretch as a starter in March of last season, he averaged 7.1 assists. The Bulls have played at the seventh-fastest pace in the league, so that also puts Jones in a favorable spot to reach this over.
