Herbert Jones blocks props have been a goldmine for under bettors, hitting just 40% overs across his last 10 games with a brutal -23.6% ROI on the over side. The 0.6 average against a 0.5 line suggests marginal value, but the consistent under performance creates a clear lean under opportunity.
Expert Analysis
Herbert Jones's blocks production has been remarkably consistent in disappointing over bettors, creating one of the more reliable under trends in the props market. The New Orleans forward is averaging 0.6 blocks per game against typical 0.5 lines, which appears favorable on the surface, but the 4-6-0 over/under record tells the real story. This isn't a case of bad luck or variance - Jones has hit a wall defensively that's persisted across multiple weeks. The Pelicans' defensive scheme has shifted throughout this stretch, often positioning Jones away from traditional rim protection duties and more toward perimeter harassment. His 6'7" frame at the power forward position means he's frequently matched against bigger opponents who can shoot over him rather than challenge him at the rim. The four-game under streak that closed this sample represents his longest cold spell, suggesting the trend has momentum rather than showing signs of regression. Most concerning for over bettors is that Jones hasn't shown the explosive defensive games that historically pushed him over modest lines - no multi-block performances in this stretch indicates a fundamental shift in his defensive impact rather than temporary struggles.
Betting Verdict
LEAN UNDER with MEDIUM confidence. The 40% over rate combined with the -23.6% ROI on overs creates clear value on the under side, especially with Jones currently riding a four-game under streak. The ideal spot is when books stick with 0.5 lines despite this poor form. Main risk is a defensive scheme change that puts Jones back in traditional rim protection situations, but his recent positioning suggests the Pelicans have moved away from that role.
