NBA Player Props Today – Tuesday, November 26, 2024

Kevin Durant OVER 22.5 Points (-120, Bally)

Kevin Durant has seemingly always enjoyed playing against LeBron James. According to StatMuse, Durant has scored 30+ points in 5 of his last 7 games against James – all of which have come in the last two years. Durant hasn’t played since November 8 due to injury, but he doesn’t appear to be on a minutes restriction this evening. Given that this is an NBA Cup game with significant financial implications, this is a line that simply seems far too low.

Dalton Knecht OVER 10.5 Points (-110, Bet365)

Dalton Knecht has quietly begun to emerge as a reliable scorer on a nightly basis for the Lakers. After averaging only 8.2 points in 16.6 minutes of action in October, Knecht is averaging 13.0 points per game in 26.0 minutes per night in November, and he has played at least 26 minutes in each of his last 6 contests. Knecht has scored at least 14 points in 5 of his last 6 games in which he’s played 26+ minutes, with the lone exception coming this past Saturday against the Nuggets in a blowout loss. Assuming a more competitive game script this evening, Knecht should have a good chance to get the job done here.

Collin Sexton OVER 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (-135, DraftKings)

Entering play on Tuesday, Collin Sexton has hit multiple 3-pointers in 9 of 16 games this season for Utah. Tonight, fellow backcourt mate Jordan Clarkson has been ruled out, which could open up even more opportunities for Sexton in the team’s offense. This is one of the most favorable matchups on the board this evening for guards, facing a San Antonio defense that has been allowing a high volume of 3-pointers made to the position in recent weeks. Lindy Waters, Buddy Hield, Keyonte George, Cason Wallace, Stephen Curry, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander have each hit multiple shots from long range against the Spurs in the last week alone.
