Underdog NBA Fantasy Picks & Predictions
Zach Collins H/L 6 Rebounds
Zach Collins gets a favorable matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans tonight. Stokastic’s Pick’Em Pro tool has Collins projected for 8.3 rebounds, good for a 65% Win% on the over. All of the books have this at 6.5.
Collins is averaging 6.4 rebounds on the road this season, while New Orleans ranks 24th in opponent rebounds per game. Victor Wembanyama is questionable for the Spurs on the second leg of a back-to-back, and if he were to sit, this prop looks even better.
Best Underdog NBA Fantasy Play: Zach Collins Higher Than 6 Rebounds
Joel Embiid H/L 6 Assists
Joel Embiid and the 76ers find themselves as 6-point road underdogs against the first place Celtics. These teams are very familiar with each other after last year’s seven-game playoff matchup. Our Pick’Em Pro tool projects Embiid for just 5.1 assists tonight good for a 60% Win% on the under.
The Boston Celtics allow the third fewest assists in the NBA at just 23 per game. Over their last five games, Philadelphia ranks just 21st in field goal percentage.

Kyle Kuzma H/L 22.5 Points
Kyle Kuzma scored 23 points on Wednesday against this same Magic team. The Wizards are 11-point road underdogs tonight after losing by 19 points at home on Wednesday. I’m betting on Kuzma getting at least 23 points tonight. On the season he’s averaging 26.1 points in 11 games on the road compared to just 19.1 at home. He takes four more shots and gets to the line two more times per game on the road.
Kuzma is expected to score 24 points tonight, even if the Wizards get blow out again. According to Pick’Em ProKuzma is projected for 24 points carrying a 52% win rate on higher.
