DraftKings offers two great bets for December 5. New users can bet $5 and get $150 in free bets.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the NBA's breakout player of the season. He's averaging career highs and leading the league in 30-point games. Sportsbooks are underestimating him. SGA has paid out on more points Over bets than just about any player this season and has hit the Over on his points total in six straight games and nine out of his last 10.

Houston Rockets' Jalen Green is a promising young guard, but he's struggled with turnovers. He's averaging 3.6 giveaways per game this season, and his 13.7% turnover rate is up from his rookie season. On Monday he'll play against De'Anthony Melton, who's a menace on and off the ball and one of the best defensive playmakers in the NBA. The game will take place at the Philadelphia 76ers' arena.

Kelly Oubre is having his worst season since his sophomore year for the Washington Wizards. He's a career 33% shooter from downtown but is shooting just 30% on the year. OUBre will play against the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night. L.A. has been one of the better defensive teams in the NBA this season.
