Search the best NBA player prop odds for any team or player across every market from legal sportsbooks in your area.
LaMelo Ball Over 18.5 points (-109) āāāāā
While he struggled in November, Ball has scored 28 or more points in two of his last three games, making him a strong candidate for a ladder bet.
Ball is shooting 26-for-52 (50%) from the field, including 13-for-28 (46.4%) on 3-pointers, during that span. In the one game where he scored fewer than 19 points - a win against the Toronto Raptors on Dec. 5 - he was forced to leave after just 12 minutes due to an ankle injury.
The last time Ball faced the Pistons, on Nov. 6, 2024, he scored 25 points on 10-of-23 shooting from the field.

Cade Cunningham Over 27.5 points (-125) āāāā
Cunningham has scored 29 or more points in back-to-back games. Over a larger sample, he has reached this total in 11 of his last 18 games.
While he has scored 28 or more points in 61.11% of his last 18 games, the -125 odds from BetMGM imply a probability of just 55.56%. Although his number is slightly lower because the Pistons are projected to rout the Hornets, Charlotte has covered the last four meetings in this series, suggesting the game may be closer than the market expects.
Don't overreact to the spread; Cunningham should play enough minutes to score 28-plus.
Miles Bridges Over 2.5 three-pointers made (+158) āāā
Bridges has made three or more 3-pointers in two of his last three games, shooting 9-for-20 (45%) from beyond the arc during that span.
The Hornets wing made five 3-pointers the last time he faced the Pistons - a 10-point Hornets loss in Detroit on Feb. 9. He has reached this total in back-to-back meetings with Detroit, making these +158 odds from FanDuel - which carry an implied probability of just 38.76% - one of my NBA best bets for today.
