We delve back into the world of player props tonight with our top NBA prop picks for Saturday's slate of games.

Prop picks allow you to back the trends of a player rather than a team as a whole. Saturday's games provide the opportunity to fade players who are not in good situations individually and to back a player who could go back to his previous ways.

Here are my top NBA prop picks for Saturday's nine-game NBA schedule (odds via FanDuel Sportsbook).

Saturday's Top NBA Prop Picks

Spencer Dinwiddie Under 14.5 points (-110)Karl-Anthony Towns Over 2.5 threes (-118)Jae'Sean Tate Under 2.5 assists (-140)

Top Prop Picks

Dinwiddie Under 14.5 points (-110)

With Bradley Beal back in the lineup for the Washington Wizards, Spencer Dinwiddie will take a step back in scoring. Dinwiddie has not gone Over this total in the last six games with Beal playing, as he looks to become more of a facilitator with the star's presence. The Wizards are playing a Miami Heat team that is fifth in defensive efficiency, so I don't expect him to come close to this NBA prop pick total.

Towns Over 2.5 threes (-118)

The reason this price is so low is that Karl-Anthony Towns has struggled from deep in recent games. Since hitting this prop in 10 of 11, he's only made this mark in two of his last four games.

This is a good spot for Towns to get back on track, as the Memphis Grizzlies are 29th in opponent three-point percentage and defensive efficiency. I took it last time, and I'm confident it will work this time.

Tate Under 2.5 assists (-140)

There is not a lot of juice on this line, and for good reason. Rookie forward Jae'Sean Tate has gone Under this mark in seven straight games playing on a 1-14 Houston Rockets team that is 29th in assists per game.

Playing on the road against the New York Knicks, this feels like the type of game where Houston rolls over early. It's not wise to bet on the Rockets in any way, except for this prop.
