What are Player Props?

Player props refer to wagers that bettors can make based on player performance in a specific game. The majority of player props are built around the most common statistical benchmarks, such as points, rebounds, or assists. Most player props are straight over/under plays that open at or near -110 and are adjusted based on where the money lands.
