We have a BIG NBA slate slate on this April Fool's day Friday and a lot of props to choose from. Teams are tanking and it's time to take advantage of these teams down a bunch of players. 

 

Underdog is running a Karl-Anthony Towns three-point special and it’s a hard UNDER.

 


 

Deni Avdija OVER 18.5 points+rebounds+assists

Although this is a tough match-up for Washington as a whole, Deni Avdija has been quite good lately, especially without Kyle Kuzma in the lineup. The Wizards will be without Kyle Kuzma for the eighth straight game and in the previous seven, Avdija has gone over this total in seven games. Look at the chart below.

The minutes have been extremely consistent for Avdija as well, especially with Kuzma out, notching 26+ in five straight games and 24+ in nine straight. This is not an easy match-up, but where Avdija has excelled lately is on the glass. Dallas, in the month of March, was 22nd in rebounding, which benefits Avdija quite a bit.

 


 

Theo Maledon OVER 19.5 points

Welcome to the wild, wild west everyone! It’s April, which means we’re going to see PLENTY of teams tanking. The Oklahoma City Thunder are playing with just eight guys tonight and one of their highest usage players in Aleksej Pokusevski has been ruled out, paving the way for Theo Maledon to continue to play the way he has recently. 

Maledon has hit the over in three of the last four games, which is really the only sample we have to go off. He played all four of those games with Pokusevski and even a couple with Tre Mann, both being ruled out. On the year, Detroit is 24th in DRtg and can be exploited.
