Game: Hawks vs Suns (9PM EST)

The Basketball Forever betting bot has found a +EV bet for Today, finding value in the total assists prop market. With our sights set on Tyus Jones Over 4.5 Total Assists in the Hawks vs Suns matchup. Going into tonight’s game, Jones is averaging 6.1 APG on the year. Over his last 5 games , he’s been able to exceed this line in 2 games. Our model suspects that against the Hawks, the Suns are going to be forced to move the ball around as much as possible, looking for the best scoring matchup. This can lead to Jones racking up assists. After falling only one assist short in his last game, our model is projecting Jones to finish tonights game with a total of 6.1 AST.

We recommend placing a wager on Tyus Jones Over 4.5 Total Assists, with an attractive edge of 11.6%, with +110 odds.
