NBA Player Props Today – Thursday, November 30

Mikal Bridges Over/Under 5.5 Rebounds

Since Ben Simmons last played on November 6, Mikal Bridges is averaging 6.7 rebounds on 10.8 rebound chances per game for the Nets. Last season, Bridges converted 55.6% of his rebound chances for the season, meaning that 10.8 rebound chances per game is likely to convert to at least six rebounds more often than not in a favorable matchup. This evening, Bridges gets to face a Hornets team that ranks 25th in rebound percentage and 29th in opponent rebounds per game since November 15. During that stretch, Charlotte has allowed at least six rebounds to Khris Middleton, Josh Hart (twice), Jayson Tatum, and Franz Wagner – each of whom plays the same position as Bridges. This is a strong look for Thursday, especially at this price.

Brandon Miller Over/Under 14.5 Points

According to RotoGrinders CourtIQ, Brandon Miller is averaging 19.1 points per 36 minutes this season with LaMelo Ball off of the court. On Tuesday against the Knicks, with Ball out due to injury, Miller had 18 points, despite the fact that he shot an inefficient 7-for-18 from the field against a tough opponent. This evening, Miller gets a more favorable matchup against a Brooklyn team that has allowed the second-most field goal attempts in the mid-range of any team in the NBA since Ben Simmons last played on November 6. The Nets have also allowed the most three-point attempts from above the break during that stretch. Miller should lead the Hornets in volume again tonight, which gives him plenty of margin for error at this market number.

Bam Adebayo More/Less Than 23.5 Points

Bam Adebayo is averaging 23.3 points per game this season and gets an extremely favorable matchup tonight against the Pacers. This year, Adebayo is attempting the vast majority of his shots from around the rim, which bodes well for him against an Indiana defense that struggles to defend this area of the floor, on top of being foul-prone. Since November 15, the Pacers have allowed the most field goal attempts per game in the restricted area of any team in the NBA. Indiana also ranks 21st in opponent field goal percentage in the paint and 25th in opponent field goal percentage on mid-range attempts in that span, while allowing the most opponent free throw attempts in the league. Adebayo could threaten 30 points once again in this spot.
