Mavericks vs Bulls NBA Preview, Picks
Action PRO projects Mavericks forward Cooper Flagg for 8.16 rebounds tonight, a nice 9.3% edge against the market when compared to his 7.5 line.
After the injuries suffered by Dereck Lively, P.J. Washington and, most recently, Anthony Davis, Dallas will need a group effort to protect the boards.
So, Flagg will probably end up racking up more rebounds than usual in this spot.
Additionally, Flagg has already surpassed this line in his last two games, with totals of 10 and 8.
At plus-money, back the rookie phenom to go over his rebounds line against the Bulls.
