📊 Recap
Miami and Charlotte combined for 225 points, falling 5.5 short of the total we needed. The back-to-back fatigue angle was sound, but defenses held firm tonight — sometimes the model is right on the logic and wrong on the result.
📊 Recap
Diabate came through with exactly 2 assists, clearing the 1.5 threshold as projected. The high-post facilitation angle held up, with Charlotte's guard limitations creating the offensive initiation opportunities we identified pregame.
📊 Recap
Giannis stayed true to his shot selection tendencies, keeping his distance from the arc and letting the under cash with ease. Process confirmed — this is exactly the kind of low-variance prop that reflects real usage patterns rather than hope.
📊 Recap
The Heat fell 110-115 to Charlotte, and the result didn't go our way. The structural edge we identified was reasonable, but the Hornets executed well enough to take it — that's the variance in single-game moneylines, and we accept the result cleanly.
📊 Recap
Harden finished with 7 assists, landing right in line with our projection of six and well under the 7.5 line. Cleveland's balanced offensive structure did exactly what we anticipated — limiting the organic playmaking opportunities that inflate his assist totals elsewhere.
📊 Recap
Demin delivered, finishing with 5 threes as the volume-driven thesis played out cleanly. Consistent attempts from the starting role created the opportunity we modeled for, and he converted well above the 1.5 threshold.
📊 Recap
Embiid finished with 10 assists, well clear of our 4.5 threshold — a sharp reminder that even high-confidence process plays carry variance. His facilitating role was elevated tonight, and the result didn't go our way.
📊 Recap
Brown finished with 5 assists, one clear of the threshold, and the result didn't go our way. The structural read on his role was sound, but the number needed less margin for error than we had anticipated.
📊 Recap
Rollins delivered exactly what we projected, converting 2 threes in a starting role that provided the volume needed to clear 1.5. The edge here was straightforward — a starter with consistent attempt rates rarely needs a hot night to hit a number this accessible.
📊 Recap
Jaquez connected on two threes, landing exactly at the threshold we needed to stay under. No excuses — the read on his profile was sound, but he delivered an outlier night that went against us.
📊 Recap
Dallas couldn't get the cover, falling 122-106 — a 16-point loss that pushed past our +12.5 number. The value was real on paper, but the Mavericks never generated the late-game resistance needed to close the gap.
📊 Recap
The Spurs-Mavericks final of 228 fell just short of the 230.5 total, a two-point miss that stings. Our structural reads on pace and foul volume didn't materialize at the needed level — a clean loss with no caveats to hide behind.
📊 Recap
Harper finished with just 2 assists, falling well short of the 3.5 threshold. The matchup logic held merit, but the production simply wasn't there — a clean miss on our end.
📊 Recap
Christie finished with just 1 three-pointer, falling short of the 1.5 threshold. The role expansion case was sound, but he didn't convert enough volume into makes — this one didn't go our way.
📊 Recap
The final landed at 244 — just a point and a half shy of the number. The defensive breakdowns we modeled were there; Washington and Chicago simply didn't generate quite enough volume to get us over the line.
📊 Recap
Kyshawn George didn't clear the 1.5 threshold tonight, and we take the loss. The logic around Chicago's permissive perimeter defense and George's shot profile remained sound — sometimes the spots don't convert, and that's part of the variance we accept.
📊 Recap
Hawks ML didn't hold up — Houston won 121-114, and Atlanta's defensive edge we leaned on didn't materialize on the night. The process behind the pick was sound, but the Rockets executed well enough to cover any edge we identified.
📊 Recap
Jabari Smith delivered exactly what the model projected, finishing with 2 made threes to clear the 1.5 threshold. The offensive structure held up as expected — Sengun's post presence created the gravity needed to keep Smith in rhythm from deep.
📊 Recap
DeRozan hit exactly 3 assists, clearing the 2.5 threshold as projected. His role as a secondary playmaker in Denver's offense delivered, and the cushion we identified in the line held up cleanly.
📊 Recap
Queen stayed true to his paint-first profile and never tested the arc, exactly as his usage patterns suggested. The process held — interior bigs with near-zero three-point attempt rates rarely surprise you, and this one didn't.
📊 Recap
The Warriors covered with room to spare, losing by just 9 — well within the number. Our model's projection of a ~5-point Suns advantage proved accurate, and the market overcorrected, giving us exactly the overlay we identified.
📊 Recap
Gillespie finished with 2 made threes, keeping us just inside the number. His low-volume profile held true, and the baseline expectation did exactly what it was supposed to do — make hitting three an uphill task.
