Best NBA Player Props & Betting Picks Tonight

The process is extremely quick and highly effective. Try out the tool for yourself tonight with the three featured prop bets below!

Kristaps Porzingis Over 1.5 Assists (+130, Caesars)

After missing each of the Dallas Mavericks’ last two contests, Kristaps Porzingis is set to return to the lineup tonight. While it can oftentimes be difficult to gauge a player’s performance up against NBA player props totals after an absence, the OddsShopper Tool has found a tremendous plus-money value bet to consider this evening. Porzingis enters Tuesday’s tilt against the Brooklyn Nets averaging 1.9 assists per game on the season. While it is far from the focal point of his game, he did hand out multiple helpers in six of his last eight games played. Two assists are all it will take for Porzingis to clear the NBA betting total of 1.5 in tonight’s game.

While the Mavs play at one of the slowest tempos in the league, the Nets are a much faster team and figure to try and speed up the action tonight. More possessions could mean more opportunities for Porzingis to dish to open teammates. At the optimal +130 price, Awesemo gives this over prediction an expected ROI of 29%. Be sure to check in with OddsShopper before making your NBA picks as this price is 10 cents better value than those offered at other sportsbooks in the market.

Keldon Johnson Over 13.5 Points (-118, FanDuel)

If this NBA player props prediction looks familiar, it is because the exact same bet was featured in yesterday’s column. For the second straight night, Awesemo has a large betting edge on San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson to exceed 13.5 points. After having their winning streak snapped in a close loss yesterday, the Spurs will look to get back on track when they host the New York Knicks tonight. Johnson fell just shy on going over 13.5 points yesterday, scoring 13 exactly in the four-point loss.

Despite that near-miss, Johnson has still exceeded the NBA betting total in four of the last six games. He has scored no fewer than 13 points during that stretch as well. Awesemo projects him for exactly 14.98 points tonight. At -102 odds, this prop bet has a healthy expected ROI of 22%.

Russell Westbrook Under 8.5 Rebounds (-145, Caesars)

Russell Westbrook may be the new “Mr. Triple-Double”, but his contributions in the rebounding category have diminished greatly during the early portion of his time with the Los Angeles Lakers. Despite only exceeding his per-game average of 8.0 boards three times in the last ten games, the NBA betting total still lists 8.5 ahead of tonight’s game. Not only has Westbrook largely been falling short of that mark recently, but he has not even come close in the majority of games. With LeBron James back in the lineup, there are even fewer rebounding chances for a guard like Westbrook to pursue.

The OddsShopper Tool shows that heavy juice is required to bet under 8.5 boards, but Awesemo’s projections still believe it to be a worthwhile play. With a projection of just 7.51 rebounds, this prop bet still carries a positive expected ROI despite the -145 odds. Furthermore, the line of 8.5 is a full rebound higher than the majority of sportsbooks in the market. Shop wisely for the best number on all of your NBA player props!
