NBA Player Prop Bets for Today
Devin Booker o27.5 points (-115)
PrizePicks: O/U 28.5 Points
Per EdgHouse, Devin Booker has eclipsed this number in only 22-of-47 games played this season (46.8% hit-rate). However, he has eclipsed this number in 12-of-14 games played since January 14th (85.7% hit-rate). In that span, Booker has attempted 23 shot attempts or more in all but two contests. During this torrid stretch of action, Booker owns a 34.5 percent usage rate, which leads the team by a wide margin. Last year against the Milwaukee Bucks, Booker posted 30 points and 24 points in two regular season meetings. In the NBA Finals, Booker scored 27 points, 31 points, 10 points, 42 points, 40 points, and 19 points. Assuming that Booker is aggressive this evening, the volume should be there. It also doesn’t hurt that the Bucks rank 26th in defensive efficiency across their last 10 games. The only thing that could keep him under this number is a poor shooting night from the field.
Jaren Jackson Jr. o17.5 points (+100)
PrizePicks: O/U 17.0 Points
Per EdgHouse, Jaren Jackson Jr. has only eclipsed this number in 21-of-55 games this season (38.2% hit-rate), but he has eclipsed this number in 16 of his last 31 games played (51.6% hit-rate), 9-of-16 games played since January 8th (56.2% hit-rate), and 6-of-10 games played since January 19th (60.0% hit-rate). Jackson Jr. has also seen an uptick in minutes per game and shot attempts per game compared to his early season numbers. Since January 19th, Jackson Jr. has attempted at least 14 shots in all but two games, and has taken at least 17 shot attempts in 5-of-10 games played. Factor in that the Detroit Pistons rank 25th in defensive efficiency over their last 10 games and this becomes an extremely appealing spot for bettors.
Bam Adebayo o17.5 points (-116)
PrizePicks: N/A
Per EdgHouse, Bam Adebayo has eclipsed this number in 16-of-30 games played this season (53.3% hit-rate), including 8-of-13 games played since November 29th (61.5% hir-rate). In Adebayo’s last four contests, he has attempted 17 shots, 13 shots, 21 shots, and 11 shots. He is also averaging 7.0 free throw attempts per game during this time period, which gives him the opportunity to earn some free points at the line, even if he does not have the most efficient night shooting from the floor. On the year, the New Orleans Pelicans rank worse than league average in opponent free throw attempts per game. Adebayo should have a great chance to cash this play tonight.
Steven Adams o9.5 rebounds (+102)
PrizePicks: O/U 9.5 Rebounds
Across their last eight games, the Detroit Pistons rank 27th in rebounding percentage and 27th in opponent rebounds per game. Per EdgHouse, Steven Adams has hit double-digits in rebounds 16 times in his last 28 games (57.1% hit-rate). In recent games, Memphis Grizzlies player props have been victim to blowout game scripts. Yet, assuming this game remains somewhat competitive, Adams should be able to deliver a winner on this ticket at plus-money.
