    Wednesday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets

    (Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)

    Darius Garland Over 20.5 Points (-113)

    The Cavaliers will be without leading scorer Donovan Mitchell yet again, as he suffered a broken nose over the weekend in Houston after being inadvertently hit in the face with a elbow by teammate Tristan Thompson. The injury required surgery, and Mitchell will be re-evaluated in a week. He could be sidelined until April.

    Someone has to pick up the pace, and it will likely be Garland. He was good for 13 points, seven assists, six rebounds, and two steals in 36 minutes on Monday. Garland hit 5 of 18 from the field and just 1 of 9 from behind the three-point line. He should provide much better shooting this time, and an Over play for Garland is the way to go.

    Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 37.5 Pts+Asts (-113)

    Gilgeous-Alexander has been on fire all season, going for 30.9 PPG to rank second in the NBA. He’s also averaging 6.3 assists with a 54.4% field-goal percentage. SGA has managed 30 or more points in four of the past six outings, and he has picked up five of more dimes in five of them.

    Gilgeous-Alexander is going to go off and hit the Over on his target score for points and assists. He’ll be facing a Jazz team which allows a whopping 120.6 PPG. Teams are hitting at a robust 39.8% from behind the 3-point line against Utah. The Jazz are also letting teams hit at 48.5% from the floor.

    SGA is hitting at a 51.6% clip from the field and 28.2% from behind the arc. It’s going to be another successful night at the office for Gilgeous-Alexander.

    Anfernee Simons Over 3.5 Three-Pointers (-140)

    Simons has been red hot from the perimeter recently. He hit 4 of 14 from behind the three-point line in Chicago on Monday, finishing with 30 points, nine assists, and three rebounds. Prior to that, Simons had five triples in both New Orleans on Saturday and against Atlanta at home on March 13.

    Simons has averaged four three-pointers in 10 games in the month of March, knocking down four or more three-pointers in eight of the past nine outings. He is averaging 25.4 PPG, 7.2 APG, and 4.6 RPG this month. The triple is a big part of his game, and he has just been in a zone lately. The Clippers are allowing teams to hit at a 36.4% clip against them from behind the three-point line. That’s a good mix for Simons to scoop up at least four triples.
