NBA Player Props Today – Thursday, March 27, 2025
- Dyson Daniels Over/Under 5.5 Rebounds
- Jarrett Allen Over/Under 0.5 Double-Double
- Darius Garland Over/Under 6.5 Assists
Dyson Daniels OVER 5.5 Rebounds (-120, bet365)
Since De’Andre Hunter was traded to Cleveland, Daniels is averaging 6.6 rebounds on 10.5 rebound chances per game – both of which rank 2nd on Atlanta in that span, behind only Onyeka Okongwu.
Entering play, Daniels has recorded 6+ rebounds in 12 of his last 20 games, including 6 of 9 road games since the Hunter trade. This season, Daniels has recorded 6+ rebounds in 12 of their 16 games in which both Clint Capela and Jalen Johnson have been inactive, including 7 of 9 road games.
Miami has done a decent job keeping guards off of the glass of late, but this is still a playable number for Daniels.
Jarrett Allen to Record a Double-Double (-130, FanDuel)
Since the All-Star Break, Jarrett Allen is averaging 8 shot attempts per game – over half of which are coming in the restricted area. During that span, the Spurs have allowed the 2nd-most field goal attempts per game in the restricted area and have been below average in opponent field goal% in that area of the floor as well. San Antonio has also struggled on the glass without Victor Wembanyama, ranking 23rd in opponent rebounds per game since their star big man was ruled out for the season.
According to RotoGrinders CourtIQ, Allen is averaging 19.6 points and 13.9 rebounds per 36 minutes this season with Evan Mobley off of the floor. He has recorded a double-double in all 4 home games in which Mobley has been inactive this year. This is a good matchup for Allen to continue that streak.
Darius Garland OVER 6.5 Assists (-110, DraftKings)
This season, Darius Garland is averaging 8.5 assists per 36 minutes with Evan Mobley off of the floor, per RotoGrinders CourtIQ. Garland has recorded 7+ assists in 5 of 8 games in which Mobley has been inactive this season, including 3 of 4 home contests. The lone miss came in a matchup against Orlando — one of the league’s best defenses.
Tonight, Garland gets to face a San Antonio defense that has allowed the 5th-most assists per game to guards since the All-Star Break. He’s had 11+ potential assists in 7 of 8 games in which Mobley has sat this year. Overall, Garland has recorded 7+ assists in 25 of 33 games this season when having 11+ potential assists. The math favors the over here, assuming a somewhat competitive game script.
