Jaren Jackson Jr. (MEM) Over 15.5 Points + Tyus Jones Over 5.5 AST (-110)

Love these directly correlated parlays. Jaren Jackson Jr has played very well this series, averaging 20.4 points per game despite facing some foul trouble. Without Ja Morant in the lineup, we saw him take 21 shots, scoring 21 points despite going 0-7 from beyond the arc in his first game. He followed that up with 21 points in 25 minutes in a blowout. JJJ really looked to take advantage of his size mis-match, and was constantly attacking Wiggins down low and getting to the freethrow line. JJJ is averaging 7.3 3PA this series, and will continue to take advantage of the increased usage he will see with Ja Morant out. Tyus Jones also comes in and immediately makes an impact. He grabbed 5 assists (on 12 potential) in his first game without Ja, and followed that up with 9 in 24 minutes last game. Gonna continue to ladder those assists and play the double double.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (MIL) Over 33.5 Points (-110)

Last game we narrowly escaped, getting the Giannis points early but a Jrue Holiday steal with the last possible game. Not sure about you guys, but I’m not gonna press my luck with the steal again, let's trust the former MVP. Giannis is seeing some of the highest volume in all of the playoffs. He’s taken 25+ FGA in every game this series, going over this number in his last three games. While he started out slow on the road, Giannis was honestly just missing shots he normally does not (also expecting some free throw regression). That being said, this is a must win game, and without Middleton, Jrue and Giannis are gonna continue to see extremely large usage. If he’s gonna keep taking 25+ shots and getting to the free throw line 10+ times then sign me up.
