Rui Hachimura Points Prop is currently Over/Under 13.5 (-128/+100).
Pros
- Rui Hachimura has converted 62.9% of his shot attempts from the field over the last 15 games on the road, 5.5% higher than he’s sunk over the course of the year when playing on the road.
- Rui Hachimura has made 54.9% of his three-pointers over the last 15 games on the road, 9.4% higher than he’s made over the course of the year on the road.
- Rui Hachimura has played 34.2 minutes per game over the last 5 games when playing away from home, 8.2 higher than he’s played in all games this season on the road.
- In regard to shooting, the Lakers’s outstanding 120.8 points per game places most in the NBA over the last 15 games.
- This year, opposing starting SFs have posted 19.5 points per game (highest in the NBA) against the Brooklyn Nets, creating a good matchup for offensive output.
Cons
- The Brooklyn Nets have played at the 3rd-least up-tempo pace in the league over the last 5 games, which should lead to fewer opportunities for the Lakers.
- The Lakers check in as the worst offensive rebounding offense in the league this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
- Rui Hachimura should experience a decrease in efficiency across the board as a result of playing away from home in this game.
Prop Projection: Rui Hachimura is projected for 14.1 Points
