💰 Nuggets vs. 76ers best bet
Search the best NBA player prop odds for any team or player across every market from legal sportsbooks in your area.
Joel Embiid Over 25.5 points (-105) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Embiid has been trending upward as a scorer, putting up 26 or more points in four of his last five games while averaging 28 per game over that span.
He cashed this prop in an 11-point win over the New York Knicks on Saturday despite attempting just 15 shots. While Embiid has attempted 18 or more shots in six of his last eight games - which is a good sign for Over bettors - he’s also shooting 49.3% from the field in that span, giving him a solid chance to cash this prop today.

Jamal Murray Over 2.5 3-pointers made (-140) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Murray shot 50.5% from beyond the arc in 14 December games.
While he went just 1 of 7 from deep against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday, Murray’s overall trend line is a good sign for bettors taking the Over on his 3-pointers. Before his poor shooting night in Brooklyn, Murray made 6 of 12 threes against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday. And when he cashes this prop, he tends to go well Over, making Murray a solid candidate for a ladder bet.
Tyrese Maxey Over 27.5 points (-104) ⭐⭐⭐
Maxey has scored 28 or more points in four straight games, including a 36-point outing against the Knicks on Saturday.
The Knicks guard has been reliable for Over bettors recently, scoring 28-plus in seven of 10 December games. Maxey has also put up 28 or more points in five of his last six home games.
