NBA Player Props Today – Friday, November 24

Damian Lillard Over/Under 29.5 Points

Entering play on Friday, Damian Lillard is averaging only 24.8 points per game this season, and he has only modestly increased his scoring to 25.2 points per game during November. Lillard is attempting only 16.8 shot attempts per game this season, which is his lowest volume since the 2014-2015 campaign. Lillard gets a seemingly favorable matchup this evening against a Wizards defense that ranks 26th in defensive efficiency this month, but Washington has done a respectable job defending opposing point guards of late. Only three of the last 11 point guards to face Washington have gone over their pregame market number for points. Lillard had only 20 points against this same team this past Monday. The under has value in this spot, even if it’s a tough bet to place psychologically.

Bam Adebayo Over/Under 10.5 Rebounds

Bam Adebayo has eclipsed this market number in six of his last eight games, but the majority of those games have come against weak rebounding opponents. The Lakers, Grizzlies, Spurs, and Bulls each rank in the bottom-half of the league in rebound percentage during November, which has afforded Adebayo more opportunities on the glass. The Knicks are the best rebounding team in the NBA this month and have not allowed more than eight rebounds to an opposing center since October 27. Adebayo is likely to fall short of a double-double in this contest.

De’Aaron Fox More/Less Than 5.5 Assists

De’Aaron Fox is averaging 5.0 actual assists and 11.5 potential assists in six games since returning from injury. He has a tough road matchup against the Timberwolves, which rank 2nd in defensive efficiency and have allowed the 3rd-fewest assists per game of any team in the league during November. Fox is going to have a difficult time getting to six assists.
