Sam Merrill Assists
Player Prop - 12/21/2023

Cleveland Cavaliers vs New Orleans Pelicans

Sam Merrill Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 2.5 (+106/-137).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 2.5 @ +109 before it was bet up to 2.5 @ +106.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

The Cavaliers have played at the 3rd-speediest pace-of-play in the league over the last 15 games when playing at home.

The Cleveland Cavaliers will likely see a rise in opportunities in this contest from being pitted against the 5th-speediest pace-of-play away offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Pelicans).

The Cleveland Cavaliers check in as the 2nd-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games at home (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore produce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).

While playing away from home, the Pelicans have given up the least offensive rebounds per game (9.1) in the league to the other team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce additional chances for scoring and assists).

Sam Merrill is expected to get a boost in performance in all facets of the game due to holding the home court advantage in this contest.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

Out of all players in the NBA, Sam Merrill slots into the 24th percentile for playing time, tallying only 13.9 minutes per game on his home court this year.

Sam Merrill has committed 2.2 personal fouls per game over the last 5 games playing at home, 1.0 more than he's committed over the course of the season at home.
