Search the best NBA player prop odds for any team or player across every market from legal sportsbooks in your area.
⬆️ Nikola Jokic player prop: Over 27.5 points (-122) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Jokic is averaging 34.8 points through eight November games, surpassing this total six times in that span.
The Nuggets big man is putting up 29.2 points per game and is leading the league in rebounds (13.4) and assists (11.1), so it makes sense that he's the favorite in the NBA MVP odds. Jokic is coming off a 36-point performance against the Chicago Bulls on Monday and has scored 35 or more points in two of his last three road games.
The -122 odds for Jokic to go Over 27.5 points at DraftKings are the best available at the time of publication. These odds imply a 54.95% probability of success, and a $10 winning wager would yield $8.20 in profit.
⬆️ Trey Murphy III player prop: Over 0.5 steals (-168) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Trey Murphy III has been a pest defensively this season, recording at least one steal in 11 straight games.
He's averaging a career-best 1.5 steals per game this season (up from 1.1 per game in 2024–25) and has posted a 1.7-per-game average through nine November games. Murphy has surpassed this total in six of his seven home games this season, including a three-steal performance in a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday.
The -168 odds at DraftKings are the best available at the time of publication. These odds imply a 62.69% probability of success, and a winning $10 wager would yield $5.95 in profit.
⬇️ Jamal Murray player prop: Under 23.5 points (-111) ⭐⭐⭐
Jamal Murray has scored 24 or more points in just one of his last nine games.
With the Nuggets listed as a 14-point favorite tonight, there’s a decent chance that Murray doesn’t even play the fourth quarter, as the Nuggets may be up 20 or more points by the end of the third. The Nuggets point guard is averaging just 21 points through seven November games on 42.9% shooting from the field and 33.3% from beyond the arc.
DraftKings’ -111 odds for Murray to go Under 23.5 points are the best available. That price implies a 52.61% probability, and a $10 winning bet would yield a profit of $9.01.
