March 2nd PrizePicks Plays of the Day
Christian Braun MORE THAN 15.5 Points + Asstist
Braun has quietly been trending in the right direction, clearing this line in 6 of his last 8 games while averaging over 17.3 combined points and assists during that stretch. He’s been efficient and involved offensively, but the real story here is the matchup. Utah ranks dead last in both points and assists allowed per game, consistently giving opposing players room to produce. Braun has already taken advantage of this matchup, going over this line in four straight meetings against the Jazz. With his recent form and the opponent’s defensive struggles, this sets up as a fantastic spot for Braun to deliver once again.
Derrick White MORE THAN 1.5 3-Pointer Made (Goblin)
White has been incredibly reliable in this spot, going over this line in 9 of his last 10 games and cashing it in 78% of his games on the season. His consistency from beyond the arc has been a major part of his production, as he’s averaging just under three made three-pointers per game. The matchup only adds to the appeal as Milwaukee ranks 28th in three-pointers allowed per game, a defense that has struggled to run shooters off the line. With White’s confidence and volume from deep, this shapes up as another prime opportunity for him to knock down multiple threes and clear this number.
