Now Eason gets an amazing matchup against a Utah Jazz defense that has allowed the 7th most rebounds overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eason has logged 6+ rebounds in 10\/11 games when playing 19+ minutes against teams ranked bottom 10 in rebounding. Eason grabbed 10 boards on 13 rebound chances across 32 minutes in his lone head-to-head meeting against the Jazz this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a huge pace up spot for the Rockets (28th) and Eason as Utah ranks 2nd in tempo so there should be more possessions leading to more rebound chances than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a strong chance of a blowout with Houston sitting as -16.5-point home favorites, but Eason comes off the bench, and he&#8217;s covered this line in four straight games that the Rockets have won by double digits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NBA Props Picks for Friday: Ousmane Dieng (MIL) UNDER 16.5 Points + Assists vs Boston (-102)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ousmane Dieng is coming off a career high 36 points &amp; 10 assists against the Houston Rockets but this spot against the Boston Celtics offers a great sell high spot. Dieng has fallen short of this line in 4\/5 games when playing less than 33 minutes against teams that rank below average in pace of play while averaging only 13.2 PAs per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now Dieng has to deal with a Celtics team that not only ranks dead last in tempo but #1 in points in the paint allowed &amp; #9 in pull up defense. Those two areas account for the majority of Dieng&#8217;s scoring, and he also relies on assists at the rim where Boston also ranks #1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Celtics like to swarm the oppositions top players and they will be looking Dieng&#8217;s way with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Porter Jr on the shelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dieng has already fallen short of this line in 2\/2 head-to-head games against Boston with 15 &amp; 2 PA respectively and he played 30 minutes in the 15 PA effort (avg 29+ min L10 games). There is a strong chance of a blowout limiting Dieng&#8217;s minutes with Boston entering this contest as -16.5-point favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/free-sports-picks\/nba\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/free-sports-picks\/nba\">NBA Free Picks and Predictions Today<\/a> at WagerTalk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_84041\"  width=\"870\" height=\"489\"  data-origwidth=\"870\" data-origheight=\"489\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com&#038;list=PLhz4vN97Edviict2e3LR4gbmFCCRRjrgq&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=1&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;hl=en_US&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\"><img data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"\ud83c\udfc0 WagerTalk NBA Free Picks: Your Ultimate Betting Playlist\"  data-facadeoembed=\"playlist?list=PLhz4vN97Edviict2e3LR4gbmFCCRRjrgq\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WagerTalk Live Odds Screen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>WagerTalk\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/odds?sport=L5&amp;type=4&amp;cb=0.041518762314237456\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">live odds screen<\/a> features up-to-the-minute lines from a variety of offshore and domestic sports books.
