Best NBA Player Props for Tuesday, February 10th
Here are my top player prop bets for today, with tip-off scheduled for 7:30 PM ET on Tuesday, February 10th:
- Brook Lopez Over/Under 3.5 Rebounds
- Amen Thompson Over/Under 28.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
- Bennedict Mathurin Over/Under 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
Brook Lopez OVER 3.5 Rebounds (-125, FanDuel)
FANDUELIn 9 games with Ivica Zubac unavailable for the Clippers this season, Lopez has played fewer than 23 minutes only twice. Since Zubac last played for the Clippers (he was traded to the Pacers this past week), Lopez has played 23 minutes, 36 minutes, and 26 minutes. He has posted at least 7 rebound chances in each of those contests.
According to CourtIQ, Lopez is averaging 3.8 rebounds per 24 minutes this season with both Zubac and James Harden off of the floor. Since Steven Adams last played for the Rockets on January 18, they still rank 5th in overall rebound%, but they rank 19th in rebounds allowed per game to opposing centers.
This is good value for Lopez to make an impact on the glass this evening.
Amen Thompson UNDER 28.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-120, DraftKings)
DRAFTKINGSAccording to CourtIQ, Thompson is averaging 29.9 points + rebounds + assists per 36 minutes this season with Steven Adams off of the floor, but he might not be able to sustain that average this evening in a tough matchup against the Clippers.
Losing James Harden and Ivica Zubac at the trade deadline hurt the Clippers’ offense, but it only made their defense better. More minutes with more optimal defensive lineups on the floor helped Los Angeles keep Minnesota under 100 points in their most recent game.
Thompson could struggle this evening.
Bennedict Mathurin UNDER 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-125, BetMGM)
BETMGMMathurin exploded for 25 points in his most recent game against the Rockets, but he had an efficient night shooting the basketball and made 9 free throws. This season, he’s shooting only 43.3% from the field and averaging only 4.6 made free throws per game.
He’s now in a new uniform, further complicating what his role could look like this evening. There is simply no guarantee that Mathurin is able to find offensive success out of the gate with the Clippers, especially against a strong defensive opponent.
