💰 Best NBA player prop: Who's stopping Wembanyama in Detroit? (-118)
Check out all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.
Victor Wembanyama has proven himself to be matchup-proof this year and is coming off a 28-point performance against the Sacramento Kings in 30 minutes of floor time. I'm expecting him to get closer to 35 minutes tonight in a game that should be close from wire-to-wire. While the Pistons are one of the best in defending the paint, it's his usage that will allow us to go over this low number.
🔥 More NBA player prop picks
DeRozan to soar Over 16.5 points vs. lowly Grizzlies (-125)
DeRozan is one of the best mid-range shooters in basketball, and the Grizzlies' opponents' two-point percentage ranks near the bottom of the NBA, giving me a ton of confidence that DeMar will nickel and dime them to death all night long. With Memphis' season all but over, I'm expecting a lackluster defensive performance in a game with the highest total (233.5) on the board.
Jazz to get blown out by Durant and Rockets (-130)
Durant is coming off back-to-back 30+ point performances, and is now getting just 23.5 points against the worst scoring defense in the NBA (125.9 points against per game). Don't overthink this one, Durant will get whatever he wants against a depleted Jazz team tonight. Fire him up with confidence as part of our best NBA player props tonight.
💡 How I'm betting the NBA slate
Monday's card is built around matchup edges I’ve identified, with unit sizes adjusted based on where I see the strongest value. All three are point props I've found, with players going up against subpar defenses, or ones they specifically matchup well against. All in, I’m risking about $400 - four total units, with my standard unit size set at $100.
