Spurs vs. Rockets Player Props & Predictions Tonight: Wembanyama, Durant Picks (Jan. 28)
The Houston Rockets are listed as a 2.5-point betting favorite over the San Antonio Spurs tonight, with tipoff from Toyota Center in Houston slated for 9:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let's break down our best Spurs vs. Rockets player props tonight.
🏀 Spurs vs. Rockets player props: Victor Wembanyama best bets
Victor Wembanyama has the second-shortest odds in our NBA Defensive Player of the Year odds and favorites.
Best bet: Victor Wembanyama Over 2.5 blocks (-118 via BetMGM)
Victor Wembanyama has been ramping up his defensive effort in the I-10 rivalry, recording three or more blocks in six of his nine career games against Houston.
He struggled in their last meeting on Jan. 20, posting 14 points, 10 rebounds, and two assists with no blocks, so expect him to give full effort tonight, especially on defense.

| Victor Wembanyama prop | Best odds | Last 10 games | Career vs. Rockets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 22.5 points | -110 via BetMGM | 4-6 ❌ | 1-8 ❌ |
| Over 10.5 rebounds | +105 via BetMGM | 3-7 ❌ | 4-5 ❌ |
| Over 2.5 assists | -102 via FanDuel | 2-8 ❌ | 5-4 ✅ |
| Over 2.5 blocks | -118 via BetMGM | 4-6 ❌ | 6-3 ✅ |
Wembanyama's lines are slightly inflated tonight compared to his recent performances, but he should still hit Over 2.5 blocks given the matchup.
💰 Spurs vs. Rockets player props: Kevin Durant best bets
See all of our experts' NBA picks based on the latest NBA odds.
Best bet: Kevin Durant Over 2.5 three-pointers made (+112 via FanDuel)
It's hard to ignore that Kevin Durant has struggled against the Spurs in recent years, but it's equally hard to pass on this line given how well he's been shooting lately. Durant has made four-plus 3-pointers in six of his last 10 games.
It's reasonable to assume that Durant will do most of his work on the perimeter tonight with Wembanyama locking down the paint, so getting plus money on Over 2.5 is a solid bet.

| Kevin Durant prop | Best odds | Last 10 games | Last 10 vs. Spurs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 25.5 points | -102 via Caesars | 6-4 ✅ | 3-7 ❌ |
| Over 5.5 rebounds | +120 via BetMGM | 7-3 ✅ | 2-8 ❌ |
| Over 4.5 assists | +114 via FanDuel | 4-6 ❌ | 4-6 ❌ |
| Over 2.5 three-pointers made | +112 via FanDuel | 6-4 ✅ | 3-7 ❌ |
I'm also open to betting the Over on Durant's points, as he has scored 32-plus in three straight.
🔥 Spurs vs. Rockets player props: Alperen Sengun best bets
Check out all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.
Best bet: Alperen Sengun Over 0.5 blocks (-145 via BetMGM)
Sengun plays more aggressively when facing elite defenders like Wembanyama. Not only has he blocked a shot in seven of his last 10 games, but he has also cashed this prop in nine of his last matchups against the Spurs.
He has recorded 20 blocks against San Antonio in his career - his most against any team - and his second-most blocks (18) have come against Chet Holmgren and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Expect Sengun to stay aggressive tonight against another elite defender.
Alperen Sengun prop tracker
| Alperen Sengun prop | Best odds | Last 10 games | Last 10 vs. Spurs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 19.5 points | -102 via FanDuel | 5-5 ➖ | 4-6 ❌ |
| Over 8.5 rebounds | -120 via BetMGM | 5-5 ➖ | 7-3 ✅ |
| Over 6.5 assists | +108 via DraftKings | 3-7 ❌ | 3-7 ❌ |
| Over 0.5 blocks | -145 via BetMGM | 7-3 ✅ | 9-1 ✅ |
At 9-1 over his last 10 games against the Spurs, Over 0.5 blocks is Sengun's best prop.
