Pick #1: Kelly Oubre – Philadelphia 76ers – Over 17.5 Points

The 76ers will be missing both Joel Embiid and Paul George, with Jared McCain still out due to a long-term injury. This opens up more opportunities for Oubre, whose usage rate tends to rise when key players are unavailable.

The Washington Wizards continue to struggle defensively, ranking 29th in overall defensive rating and also allowing the most points per game in the league, making this an ideal matchup for Oubre. In his return on Monday, he logged 38 minutes and finished with 26 points on 9-of-18 shooting. Given Philadelphia’s current injury situation, Oubre is likely to see significant playing time, and the Wizards’ lackluster defense should make it easier for him to hit the over on 17.5 points. The game’s likely competitive nature, thanks to Philly’s key missing pieces, further boosts his chances of getting more opportunities to score.

Pick #1: Ivica Zubac – Los Angeles Clippers – Over 26.5 Points + Rebounds

Ivica Zubac has been on a strong run, averaging 32 minutes per game over his last 12 contests, with 16.25 points and 13.58 rebounds per game (29.83 total PR/G). He’s been more productive on the road this season, where he’s putting up 16.1 points and 13.3 rebounds per game. Zubac has attempted at least 9 field goal attempts in 11 of his last 12 games, signaling a central role in the Clippers’ offense.

For the first time in his career, he’s regularly playing over 30 minutes a night, and he’s on track to have his best season yet. With the Clippers facing Denver in a closely contested game (with a total of 225.5 points), Zubac should have plenty of opportunities to hit the over on 26.5 points and rebounds.
