NBA Player Props, March 22, 2023
- DeMar DeRozan o22.5 points
- Rudy Gobert o13.5 points
- Giannis Antetokounmpo o31.5 points
DeMar DeRozan o22.5 points (-115), BetMGM
According to props.cash, DeMar DeRozan has eclipsed this market number in 40 of 65 games played this season, including seven of his last eight trips to the hardwood. In his last five games, he has attempted at least 20 shot attempts four times, scoring as many as 49 points during that stretch. The Philadelphia 76ers are not the easiest matchup in the league for opposing guards, but DeRozan has hit the over at this market number in two of three meetings against Philadelphia this season. Due to his recent volume alone, this is a play with immense value. Trust DeRozan to get the job done on Wednesday.
Rudy Gobert o13.5 points (-122), FanDuel
Can Rudy Gobert be trusted again? To be determined. However, he has eclipsed this market number in 20 of his last 29 games played, according to props.cash, and he has another favorable matchup this evening against an Atlanta Hawks team that ranks 27th in opponent field goal attempts allowed in the restricted area across the last month of action. On the season, Gobert is averaging 8.0 field goal attempts per game, 6.8 of which are coming in the restricted area. Expect him to be busy around the rim in this spot and have an excellent opportunity to hit the over on his points prop.
Giannis Antetokounmpo o31.5 points (-105), DraftKings
Bettors are likely getting a slight discount on “(player-popup #giannis-antetokounmpo)Giannis Antetokounmpo”:/players/giannis-antetokounmpo-16852’s points prop this evening in anticipation of a blowout game script against the San Antonio Spurs. Still, this matchup is too good to pass up for Antetokounmpo, who has eclipsed this market number in 18 of his 29 home games this season – good for a 62% hit-rate to the over. Six of the last nine forwards to have a points prop released against the Spurs have hit the over, per props.cash. Expect Antetokounmpo to put together a strong performance in this spot as he continues his pursuit of another MVP award.
