📊 WagerLens Performance Review

Yesterday (02/28): 4-2 (67%)

NBA: 64-46 (58%)

Feb ‘25: 62-47 (57%)

All-Time: 69-52 (57%)

🎯 DeMar DeRozan Over 3.5 Rebounds

Best Price: -122 on FanDuel

Demar DeRozan Over 3.5 Rebounds Prop Card

Recent Performance

  • Last Game: 6 rebounds

  • Last 3-Game Average: 5.7 rebounds

  • Last 5-Game Average: 5 rebounds

  • Season Average: 4 RPG

How Has This Prop Performed?

  • 3 out of last 3 over

  • 5 out of last 5 over

  • 9 out of last 10 over

Key Analysis

DeRozan has been consistently outrebounding his prop line recently. His five-game average of 5 rebounds provides a comfortable cushion above the 3.5 line, and he's shown remarkable consistency with all of his last five games clearing this total. While primarily known for his scoring, DeRozan's rebounding numbers have been a reliable source of value, especially at this modest line.

Risk Factors

  • Primary focus remains scoring, not rebounding

  • Matchups against strong rebounding teams could limit opportunities

🎯 Devin Vassell Under 2.5 Threes

Best Price: -154 on DraftKings

Devin Vassell Under 2.5 Threes Prop Card

Recent Performance

  • Last Game: 1 three

  • Last 3-Game Average: 1.3 threes

  • Last 5-Game Average: 1 three

  • Season Average: 2.1 3PM/G

How Has This Prop Performed?

  • 3 out of last 3 under

  • 5 out of last 5 under

  • 8 out of last 10 under

Key Analysis

Vassell's three-point shooting has been well below his season average recently. While he averages 2 threes per game on the season, his recent performance shows a significant decline with just a single made three in four of his last five games. All statistical indicators point toward the under, though the heavy juice reflects the market's awareness of this trend.

🎯 LaMelo Ball Under 38.5 PRA (Points + Rebounds + Assists)

Best Price: -114 on FanDuel

LaMelo Ball Under 38.5 PRA Prop Card

Recent Performance

  • Last Game: 28 PRA

  • Last 3-Game Average: 25.7 PRA

  • Last 5-Game Average: 24.8 PRA

  • Season Average: 38.5 PRA/G

How Has This Prop Performed?

  • 3 out of last 3 under

  • 5 out of last 5 under

  • 9 out of last 10 under

Key Analysis

Despite LaMelo's season average matching this prop line exactly at 38.5 PRA, his recent performance tells a different story. His last five games have averaged just about 25 PRA, showing a dramatic drop-off from his season numbers. His ankle injury likely explains why this line has been remarkably consistent with 9 of his last 10 games falling below this total.

Risk Factors

  • Season average matches the line exactly

  • Explosive upside in favorable matchups vs. Washington
