DraftKings. Since Kevin Durant went down, the Lakers have looked to take away Alperen Sengun by sending soft doubles to limit his touches and wreak havoc on his distributing. Since Sengun’s game 3 explosion, the adjustment has largely worked, in terms of limiting the big man’s production. Even though the Lakers have dropped both games 4 and 5, defense has not been the issue, and I don’t see them coming off of their coverage on Sengun. Look for the Rocket’s center to stay under this line for the fifth time this series.

Austin Reaves had 22 points, four rebounds and six assists in his series debut in Game 5. But he shot 4-of-16. The Rockets rank Top 5 in the NBA in rebounds and assists allowed to opposing point guards, and it’s clear they’re trying to make him work for his points, too. In two regular-season meetings with Houston, his PRA totals were 24 and 25, and that was playing 40 and 38 minutes.

Jabari Smith Jr. averaged a career-high 2.3 three-pointers per game during the regular season. During this series, he has made at least three triples in four of the five games. The only time he didn’t was in Game 4, when he went 2-for-10 from deep. He is averaging 42 minutes a game against the Lakers, leaving him to attempt a total of 45 three-pointers. Combine that with him shooting 37.1% from behind the arc at home this season and he is in a favorable position to make at least three three-pointers again.
