DeMar DeRozan To Score 35+ Points (+180)

If it isn't broken, don't fix it, right? We backed Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan to drop 35 points on Thursday night, and the All-Star paid dividends, dropping 37 points in the win, including sinking a clutch and-one jumper to take a late lead. It marked his eighth straight game of 35 points or more, and it doesn't seem like anyone is stopping him anytime soon. DeRozan has logged at least 20 field goal attempts in seven of those eight games. DeRozan's volume combined with his ridiculous play lately gives us the confidence to back him until the well runs dry blindly.

Jarrett Allen To Record A Double-Double & Cleveland To Win (+130)

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen continues to have a strong season and was rewarded last weekend with the first All-Star selection of his career. The big man's play has often been correlated with the team's success which is why we will be backing him along with the Cavaliers in this player performance double. Allen has posted a double-double 30 times in 51 games this season, and when doing so, the team is a dominant 25-5 in those matchups. With such a strong correlation, moving Allen's double-double price from -155 to +130 by taking the favorite Cleveland to win is a must-bet in this spot.
