NBA Player Props, March 7, 2023
- Cameron Johnson o17.5 points
- Mikal Bridges o4.5 rebounds
- Anthony Edwards o2.5 three-pointers made
Cameron Johnson o17.5 points (-145), DraftKings
Two days ago, we played this exact same line, but Cameron Johnson was an inefficient 3-for-13 from the field and failed to hit the over. Tonight, we are running it back. Since being acquired by the Brooklyn Nets, Johnson is averaging 18.2 points per game on 13.8 field goal attempts per game as the team’s second scoring option behind Mikal Bridges. Following consecutive poor shooting performances, Johnson gets an extremely favorable matchup this evening against the Houston Rockets, which rank 30th in defensive efficiency, 23rd in opponent field goal percentage, and 29th in opponent three-point percentage since the beginning of February. The volume has been there for Johnson, even in games in which he has gone under this market number. Trust him to knock down his shots tonight – take the over.
Mikal Bridges o4.5 rebounds (-120), PointsBet
Since joining the Brooklyn Nets, Mikal Bridges has eclipsed this market number in seven of nine games. In his last nine contests, Bridges is averaging 5.9 rebounds and 9.7 rebound chances. In that span, he has at least nine rebound chances in six of nine trips to the hardwood, including three games with at least 13 rebound chances. Tonight, Bridges has a less favorable matchup than he has had in recent games, but the volume and opportunity remain high enough to make him competitive at this number. Put faith in Bridges to deliver for us once again.
Anthony Edwards o2.5 three-pointers made (-110), DraftKings
The Philadelphia 76ers are one of the better defensive teams in the NBA, but they have struggled mightily to defend the perimeter as of late, particularly on the road. Since February 1, Philadelphia ranks 16th in opponent three-point attempts and 27th in opponent three-point percentage in eight games away from home. Anthony Edwards is averaging 7.8 shot attempts from beyond-the-arc at home this year, compared to 6.7 attempts from beyond-the-arc on the road. Edwards has eclipsed this market number in six of his last nine home games, with two of his messes coming against teams that rank in the top-10 in opponent three-point percentage. Each of the last six guards to have a three-point prop released against the 76ers have hit the over, per props.cash. Expect that trend to continue on Tuesday night.
