Look of the Day for Friday, Feb. 23: Keep riding the under train

The Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks didn't come near the closing total of 227.5, giving us another Look of the Day winner to improve to 3-1 on the week. Let's finish the week strong with our favorite bet for Friday's loaded NBA slate. 

Look of the Day: Tobias Harris under 17.5 points (+100 FanDuel)

We're going right back to the 76ers for our Friday LOTD, but this time we're eyeing up a player prop.

Tobias Harris didn't look healthy in his return to action Thursday night. The veteran forward played only 27 minutes and scored seven points on 3-9 shooting against the Knicks, and he still looked hobbled by the hip injury that kept him out of two straight games before the All-Star break.

Even before those two missed games, Harris wasn't playing well offensively. He's gone under 17.5 points in four of his last five starts, and it took him 39 minutes and 16 field-goal attempts to go over this number against a terrible Atlanta Hawks defense.

The Sixers are starting to move away from Harris as a main contributor on offense. Philadelphia also got Nico Batum back for Thursday night's game, and De'Anthony Melton will likely return to the lineup Friday night. As the 76ers get healthier, more and more shots will be taken away from Harris.
