Best NBA Player Props for Friday, November 13th
Here are my top player prop bets for today, with tip-off scheduled for 7:00 PM ET on Friday, November 13th:
- Jalen Suggs Over/Under 10.5 Points
- Brandin Podziemski Over/Under 17.5 Points
- Derrick Jones Over/Under 10.5 Points
Jalen Suggs UNDER 10.5 Points (-125, bet365)
BET365Suggs is averaging 9.3 field goal attempts this season, over half of which are coming in the restricted area or the paint. Milwaukee has allowed the 7th-lowest success rate on attempts in the restricted area and the 9th-lowest success rate on attempts in the paint this year.
Suggs had only cleared this number in 1 of 3 games, even before his injury. Factor in that Suggs could be on a reduced workload in his return from injury, and the math leans toward the under.
Brandin Podziemski UNDER 17.5 Points (-111, BetMGM)
BETMGMPodziemski should see plenty of volume on the offensive end of the floor with Stephen Curry out of the lineup, but this is an extremely tough matchup for him on Friday. The Spurs have held opposing guards to the 5th-lowest field goal percentage in the league this season.
Podziemski is averaging 17.3 points per game, but much of that has been built on likely unsustainable efficiency. He isn’t going to get as many clean looks at the basket with Curry out of the lineup, and a tough defensive opponent only makes it less likely he has a big night scoring the ball.
ScoresAndOdds has Podziemski projected for 16.88 points on Friday.
Derrick Jones UNDER 10.5 Points (-121, DraftKings)
DRAFTKINGSJones has scored between 8 and 12 points in every game he has played this season, meaning there isn’t much risk of him going way over this number.
The only question is whether or not Oklahoma City will be able to keep him slightly below it. Jones attempts a fair number of 3-point attempts, which makes this seem like a fairly digestible matchup against a Thunder defense that bleeds those types of shots. Yet part of the reason Oklahoma City allows so many of those shots is that they defend them well. They have allowed the 5th-lowest success rate on catch-and-shoot 3-pointers this season.
Jones would likely need an abnormal amount of volume to clear this number.
