Tuesday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets
Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook | This Season: 10-11 (+0.15 units)
Miles Bridges 20+ Points (+170)
Miles Bridges has only topped 20 points in two games this season, but he's been knocking on the door in his past two games, despite only playing 27 minutes in each of those contests. In those two games, Bridges scored 19 points. Had he played his season average of 29.8 minutes, there's a very good chance he would have gotten one more point in each game.
Bridges had a rough four-game stretch at the end of October and the beginning of November where he scored 14 or fewer points in each contest, and single digits twice. But he's found his rhythm of late and has emerged as the second-leading scorer for the Charlotte Hornets. Tonight he faces the Nets, a team allowing 114.6 points per game. To get this price for a shooter this hot right now almost feels too good to be true.
Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (-110)
Jaren Jackson Jr. is only averaging 1.8 made three-pointers per game this season, but he's averaging 2.3 in November. He's knocked down at least two threes in six of his eight games this month, and he's knocked down three or more on four different occasions this season.
Tonight, Jackson gets a somewhat difficult matchup against the Nuggets. While the Nuggets are allowing 13.7 three-pointers per game, which ranks 19th in the league, they're also holding opponents to just 35% from beyond the arc. That percentage is the 10th-lowest in the NBA. Though it's not a great matchup, it's not a bad one either, and Jackson has been pretty consistent from beyond the arc over the last month. I wouldn't take him to make three, but asking him to make two for a standard price is worth a play.
Zach Collins Over 7.5 Rebounds (-110)
The Spurs are a mess heading into tonight's game against the Thunder. Victor Wembanyama is doubtful and Jeremy Sochan has already been ruled out. Because of these injuries, I'm expecting significantly more minutes for Zach Collins, which could be huge for him in a very favorable matchup.
The Thunder are allowing the most rebounds per game this season, and they're the only team in the NBA allowing more than 60 per contest. Collins averages just 14.9 minutes per game this season, but he did play 26 minutes in his last contest. While he only had six rebounds in that game, the matchup was worse than the one he has tonight.
This season, Collins has recorded eight rebounds just once, and he's averaging only 3.5 per game. But he's also grabbed at least six rebounds in two of his last three contests. In an elevated role against a team that allows a lot of rebounds, Collins could set a season-high for rebounds tonight.
