Lauri Markkanen Assists
Player Prop - 2/8/2024

Phoenix Suns vs Utah Jazz

 
 
 
Lauri Markkanen Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 2.5 (+125/-165).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 2.5 @ +145 before it was bet up to 2.5 @ +125.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Out of all players in the NBA, Lauri Markkanen ranks in the 87th percentile for playing time, putting up a monstrous 32.7 minutes per game this year.
  • The Suns have played at the 5th-most up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA over the last 5 games, which should increase possessions for the Utah Jazz.
  • Offensive rebounds lengthen possession and result in more chances for scoring and assists, and the Jazz grade out 15thbest in in the league away from their home court with 12.2 offensive boards per game over the last 25 games.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Jazz have played at the 9th-most lethargic tempo in the NBA over the last 5 games.
  • At home, the Suns have given up the 4th-most offensive boards per game (11.6) in the league to opposing teams over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore produce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).
  • Lauri Markkanen will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing away from your home city usually worsens player performance in all facets of the game.
