The game between the San Antonio Spurs and Detroit Pistons is expected to be competitive with a fast pace, which creates an environment for Ausar Thompson to potentially exceed the assist threshold. While he has struggled recently to hit over 2.5 assists and has relatively low minutes, the Spurs' defense is conducive to open opportunities, suggesting that he could see an uptick in both usage and assist numbers. The Net EV of 0.26 indicates that the odds may not fully account for the possible impact of a close game and Thompsonβs improving offensive role, making this a reasonable lean bet.
