NBC Sports Bet Best Bet Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Dorian Finney-Smith to go Under his 13.5 Points + Rebounds prop: When looking at this matchup, its hard to imagine where Dorian Finney-Smith works into the mix.
His points + rebounds prop is 13.5 and thats a number he has gone Over in five out of nine games.
The Nets went to OT and lost to the Celtics last night.
Brooklyn will go on the road to Cleveland to take on the undefeated Cavaliers for the third back-to-back of the early season.
Finney-Smith had 12 P+R in the first instance on 28 minutes at Memphis, then a season-high 23 P+R in 28 minutes of the second time, which also came against Memphis.
The Cavaliers have size down low to limit Finney-Smith and he wont be able to guard the Cavaliers in the post, only on the wing, so those 28 minutes could decrease, amid a blowout as well.
I like Finney-Smith to go Under his 13.5 points + rebounds prop in Cleveland.
