Terry Rozier, PG, CHA Under 25.5 points (-122)
Line available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Call me crazy, but I’m on the fade Scary Terry train tonight. After scoring more than 26 points in three of his last 5 games, including 21 points in the 2nd half alone last night, I like this spot to fade Terry Rozier against the Philadelphia 76ers — who are coming off a 30+ point win last night over the woeful Detroit Pistons.
The 76ers rank in the top half in points allowed to the point-guard position, including back-to-back games of holding Cade Cunningham below his points line. De’Anthony Melton and Tobias Harris are more than capable defenders to give Rozier trouble, especially in the pick-and-roll game. They will fight over screens instead of having Joel Embiid switch onto him. With a 10-point spread, Rozier coming off playing 39 minutes. The rest of the books having this line set at 24.5 with vig on the under. I love this fade spot.
