NBA Betting Picks & Best Player Props Tonight

Finding the most profitable NBA betting picks and player props have never been easier. The newly updated OddsShopper is like the Amazon of sports betting. Simply filter, sort the page and find the best bets within seconds.

Jalen Brunson Under 18.5 Points

Brunson has been fantastic when he has been in the starting lineup like he will be tonight, as Luka Doncic will miss his fifth consecutive game due to an ankle injury. Brunson produced 18 points and 11 assists for his fourth double-double of the season against the Timberwolves on Sunday, although he also committed five turnovers and was whistled for five fouls in 39 minutes. He averages 20.1 points and 7.1 assists while shooting 49% from the field and 35.3% from beyond the arc as a starter. However, this will be the second straight game in which the Timberwolves and Mavericks have met, and coach Sam Mitchell will make the necessary defensive adjustments. Plus, Minnesota has held opposing point guards to 19.8 points on 38.4% shooting from the field and 30.0% from the 3-point line over the last 10 games. Brunson is projected for 16.33 points tonight. OddsShopper gives the under a 66% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 31%.

D’Angelo Russell Under 21.5 Points

Like Brunson, Russell had a very good game on Sunday, as he tallied 22 points, on 8-for-16 shooting from the field and 4-for-7 from beyond the arc, to go along with three assists against the Mavericks. It was the 18th straight time he reached double figures and the third time that he topped the 20-point mark in his past seven outings. However, the prop is a little high as the teams just faced each other. Moreover, Russell has struggled shooting the ball over the last 10 games. He is projected for 18.9 points tonight. OddsShopper gives the under a 68% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 29%.


The Latest Sports Betting Content from Stokastic Odds


Mikal Bridges Over 11.5 Points

Bridges is coming off one of his better offensive performances on Sunday where he pumped in 16 points and a season-high-tying four 3-pointers and five assists against Charlotte. He has scored in double figures in four of his last five games. Bridges is projected for 12.7 points tonight against the Lakers and has played well at Staples Center this year. He scored 21 points on 8-for-11 shots, including 2-for-4 from the 3-point line in an earlier matchup against Los Angeles. Plus, the Lakers are still very short-handed due to injuries and health and safety protocols. OddsShopper gives the over a 69% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 29%.

Gabe Vincent Under 14.5 Points

Vincent has played extremely well over the last month and has put up 71 points over the last four games. But Tyler Herro (probable) is expected to play after missing the last three games with a quadriceps injury, which will likely mean decreased playing time and shot opportunities for Vincent. Vincent is projected for 13 points tonight against Indiana. He has totaled 14 points and seven assists while shooting 50% from the field and 28.6% from long distance in two previous games versus the Pacers this season. OddsShopper gives the under a 65% chance of hitting and an expected ROI of 23%.
