NBA First Basket Betting Prop Bet Picks & Predictions: Pacers at Rockets
When it comes to First Basket plays, there have been few teams that have been worse to target than the Rockets. Going up against a solid team like Indiana (cashing 60% of the last ten), it’s a smart move to fade Houston.
Indiana has been cashing this prop quite often since big man Myles Turner returned to the lineup. He’s played eight games this season and has already cashed this prop four times. I’ll target him again here.
Turner, with Jalen Smith, creates a matchup nightmare with the Rocket frontcourt. I like the Pacers to continue to target Turner early here to cash another First Basket.
Pick: Myles Turner
