📡 SBR Edge: Booker Makes It Rain vs. Portland

My NBA player props today feature Devin Booker Over 26.5 points (-114), as he has attempted the second-most field goals per game in the league over the last two weeks. My next NBA best bet is Kon Knueppel Under 19.5 points (-113). He was in a two-man race with Cooper Flagg at the end of the regular season to win Rookie of the Year, and he went Under on his points in four straight games. I wrap up with Deni Avdija Over 24.5 points (-110), as his line is too low considering how much he has scored recently.

💰 Best NBA player prop bet today

Our NBA playoff series odds break down all confirmed first-round matchups.

Devin Booker Over 26.5 points (-114)

Booker has been one of the most aggressive players in the league recently.

He ranks 2nd in the NBA in field-goal attempts per game (21.75) over the last two weeks and has attempted 22 or more in three of his last four games.

FanDuel lists Booker Over 26.5 points at -114, but this bet is good up to -135 on the best sports betting sites. Our Liam Fox also backs Booker to score 27+ points with his Trail Blazers vs. Suns player props.

🔥 More NBA player prop picks

The Hornets have the 11th-shortest odds to win the NBA Finals.

Kon Knueppel Under 19.5 points (-113)

Knueppel has had more than enough motivation to score points, and he just hasn't been able to do so.

Despite being in a back-and-forth Rookie of the Year race with Flagg, he has scored 14 or fewer points in four straight games.

Knueppel Under 19.5 points is -113 at DraftKings, but I would play this up to -130 on the best NBA betting sites. I back Knueppel's teammate to go Over on 3-pointers in my Heat vs. Hornets prediction.

Deni Avdija Over 24.5 points (-110)

Avdija has been almost as aggressive as Booker lately, which is hard to believe.

The Trail Blazers forward has attempted the seventh-most field goals per game (18.8) in the NBA over the last two weeks. And with just a 3.5-point spread today, he will have to be aggressive to help Portland pull off the upset, even though our Shane Thurston expects Phoenix to cover with his Trail Blazers vs. Suns prediction.

BetMGM lists Avdija Over 24.5 points at -110, but I would be comfortable playing this up to -125 on the best sports betting apps.

🚀 Best NBA parlay picks today

While we're not getting the best number on Hornets -6 or Knueppel Under 18.5 points, the payout at bet365 is too high compared to the true odds of both of these things occurring at the same time.

Bet365 lists this two-legger at +330, while FanDuel offers the same parlay at just +228. I feature a very similar parlay in my Heat vs. Hornets player props.

💡 How I'm betting NBA player props today

Follow all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.

I risked 1.14u on Booker’s scoring prop because, while I think his line is too low, FanDuel is among the best sportsbooks at pricing player props, so I don’t want to be too aggressive.

I risked a similar amount on Knueppel’s prop, as I’ve had more success against DraftKings in the past, even though I’m slightly more confident in the Booker prop at FanDuel.

Avdija is my smallest bet at 1.1u. I like this bet directionally, but my instinct is to avoid betting too much when taking multiple star players’ Overs in case the game plays out slower than expected.
