0.91u

B.Lopez u15.5 Pts-120

Inflated line w/o Giannis but only sees a +1.7% USG 407 MIN off court. He’ll get the D. Wade matchup (87% EPM defender) on SUs then the Jarrett Allen matchup in paint points. CLE 9th in SU DEF - 27% of PTS.#2 DEF in 2024. #PlayerProps

M.Beasley o12.5 Pts-118

1.18u

Averaging 14.2 points per 30 mins without Giannis, and 16 per 30 mins without Giannis and with Dame. Tough matchup for Lopez and Khris (I assume Dean Wade on Khris) and the Cavs are good vs PnR ball-handlers. Should be a sneaky solid spot for Beasley, who put up 15 vs the Cavs earlier this season.
