Underdog Streaks 
– Friday, February 21
Current Streak: 0
Longest Streak: 9
For our first two Underdog Streaks plays on this run, we’re siding with Cade Cunningham against the Spurs and Kyrie Irving versus the Pelicans.
This is a high points/rebounds/assists projection on Underdog, but Cunningham has been immense this season. He’s averaging 25.7 points, 9.5 assists and 6.4 rebounds per 36 minutes through 50 games, with the first two numbers on pace to be career-highs.
As for Kyrie Irving, this is mainly a play on how decimated the Mavericks are. They’re down a ton of key players, so the impetus is going to fall on Kyrie, Max Christie and Klay Thompson for the time being.
The future Hall of Famer is averaging 36.2 minutes, 27.7 points and 4.9 assists in 10 games so far in February, and this is a plus matchup on the Mavs’ home court against New Orleans.
Today’s Underdog Streaks Picks:
Cade Cunningham HIGHER Than 41.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
Kyrie Irving HIGHER Than 33.5 Points + Assists
Underdog Streaks – Thursday, February 20
Current Streak: 0
Longest Streak: 9
After a slow Wednesday with only one game, the NBA fully returns on Thursday with a monster slate to examine from a DFS and betting perspective.
To kick off our Underdog Streaks attempt, we’re looking closely at points+assists projections on two usage-hogging point guards.
Jalen Brunson is averaging 26.7 points and 7.6 assists per 36 minutes through 53 games this season and has to pull even more weight with Josh Hart out injured.
This is also not a matchup to shy away from at home against the Bulls. The Knicks are favored by 12.5 and the total is 243.5, the highest on the board for Thursday night.
We feel similar about Trae Young this evening, as the Hawks get set to host the Magic. Atlanta is a one-point home underdog in the NBA odds.
Young is averaging 23.5 points and 11.4 assists per 36 minutes in 51 appearances in 2024/25. He’s had to take on an even larger offensive role since teammate Jalen Johnson got hurt.
The matchup isn’t as strong against Orlando, but we’re banking on volume winning out here.
Through seven games in the month of February, Young has averaged 37.9 minutes, 30.9 points and 12.3 assists per contest. In that span he’s posted a 36% usage rate (StatMuse).
Today’s Underdog Streaks Picks:
Jalen Brunson HIGHER Than 37.5 Points + Assists
Trae Young HIGHER Than 37.5 Points + Assists
