Capper Penguin's Tuesday NBA Pick: Cavaliers @ Nets - 3/21

Capper Penguin is looking to sweat with this first quarter pick for Tuesday's NBA action!

RUN IT BACK from last game.

Spencer Dinwiddie has been dishing out the assists like crazy since joining the Nets averaging 18 potential assists per game and 11.2 assists per game in his last five. The majority of these come in the first quarter where Spence has now covered this line in the last four at home as a Net and in his 9 of 11 games overall. The main reason is he plays the whole first quarter averaging 11.88 minutes per first quarter in his last 8 games and nothing should change vs a Cavalier's team where he'll be needed to dish the ball out. The Cavaliers are known for their defense, but have been allowing the 13th most assists to point guards in the last few weeks.

The numbers are even better if big Jarrett Allen is ruled out, but I love the value regardless. Let's hit this spot again with Spence.
