Tuesday’s Best NBA Player Props

This Season: 4-2 (+3.00 units) | Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook

Victor Wembanyama Under 24.5 Points + Assists + Rebounds (-105)

Wembanyama has scored 20+ points in just one of the first three games of his career. That performance came in a 126-122 overtime win over the Houston Rockets. Because that game went to overtime, Wembanyama saw the court for 31 minutes. In his other two games, he’s only been out there for 26 and 23.

The Phoenix Suns are in a different class than the San Antonio Spurs right now. Because of that, this game isn’t going to overtime, so Wembanyama is going to see his usual minutes. The Suns have the third-best scoring defense in basketball, and they’ve played both the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors. Even if Wembanyama pulls down double-digit rebounds like he did against the Rockets, he’s not going to score enough to push this over.

Eric Gordon Over 16.5 Points (-115)

Devin Booker is listed as doubtful for tonight’s game. In the last two games without Booker, Gordon has scored 21 and 15, though the 15 points came in a game where his team scored just 95. Tonight, he and the rest of his team have a good matchup, as the Spurs are allowing 123.7 points per game. 

Gordon is currently the third-leading scorer on the Suns, averaging 15.3 per game. With Booker likely out again, Gordon will see more opportunities to score. Against a bad defense, we firmly believe he will take advantage of those chances.

Quentin Grimes 10+ Points (+165)

This is a bit of a riskier play, but the price makes it worth it. In three games this season, Grimes has scored in double figures just once. If he’s going to hit this prop, he needs to hit his threes, as he has only made two field goals from inside the arc this year.

On Saturday night, Grimes was just 1-6 from deep. It was his first performance with fewer than two made threes all season. However, we think he will get back on track tonight against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavs are the fourth-worst team at defending the arc this season. Their opponents have knocked down 40.7% of their three-point attempts. This is a dream matchup for Grimes. He may not clear this number by much, but at +165, the value is too good to pass up.
