Best NBA Player Props for Monday, November 9th
Here are my top player prop bets for today, with tip-off scheduled for 7:00 PM ET on Monday, November 9th:
- Luka Doncic Over/Under 37.5 Points
- Stephen Curry Over/Under 4.5 3-Pointers Made
- RJ Barrett Over/Under 24.5 Points
Luka Doncic UNDER 37.5 Points (-125, BetMGM)
BETMGMDoncic has been scoring at a historic rate this season, averaging 40.1 points through his first 9 games. Tonight will be his toughest test to date though, facing an Atlanta defense that is among the best in the league at hedging and switching. In simpler terms, the Hawks do a good job attacking ball-handlers, forcing them into inefficient isolation matchups or making the ball-handler pass to a teammate.
Stephen Curry ranks 2nd in the NBA in scoring at 31.3 points per game. This is simply an astronomically-high number for Doncic. If he clears this number in a tough road matchup, hats off to him.
Stephen Curry UNDER 4.5 3-Pointers Made (-130, bet365)
BET365Curry has been hot, even by his lofty standards. He leads the NBA in true shooting percentage this season, which is even more impressive when considering he’s 38 years old and leads the league in gravity score – meaning that he’s getting plenty of defensive attention.
Curry has knocked down at least 5 3-pointers in each of his last 5 games, but tonight he will face a New Orleans defense that has allowed the 6th-lowest success rate on such attempts this season. It’s also worth noting that Curry played a season-high 36 minutes in Saturday’s overtime win against the Magic. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him on a slightly reduced workload as Golden State tries to manage his minutes.
RJ Barrett UNDER 24.5 Points (-110, bet365)
BET365Barrett is averaging 21.6 points on 17.4 field goal attempts this season, but his two best scoring performances have come against a pair of bottom-third defenses – the Clippers and Bucks.
The Grizzlies rank 8th in defensive rating through their first 9 games, and they do a good job defending areas of the floor that Barrett likes to attack. The Grizzlies have allowed the 7th-fewest shots per game in the restricted area, which is where the plurality of Barrett’s attempts have come from. They have allowed the 3rd-lowest success rate on above-the-break 3-point shots, which is where nearly all of Barrett’s long-range volume has come from.
This is a tough matchup for Barrett, who has yet to prove himself against a top-tier defense this season.
