Saturday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Karl-Anthony Towns Over 38.5 Points + Rebounds (-115)
The Knicks continued to show they will be a prominent team when we talk about Eastern Conference playoff pictures. They are coming in winning eight of their last 10. Their previous game was a homecoming for Karl-Anthony Towns, as he went off for 32 points and 20 rebounds in a 133-107 win against the Timberwolves.
The bright lights of New York are not fazing him, as he's averaging 25 points and a league-leading 14.2 rebounds per game. The Knicks head to New Orleans to play an injury-depleted Pelicans team getting out-muscled in the frontcourt by allowing the most rebounds per game and the seventh-most points per game.
Steph Curry Over 23.5 Points (-120)
It's been a brutal few games for Golden State as they've lost three straight and, in their last two games, allowed a combined 287 points. That's bad for a team ranked seventh in defensive efficiency. They'll face Minnesota tonight, with who they are familiar because this will be the third time they've squared up against them since December 6th. They’ve split the season series 1-1.
Curry is getting a generous total, which has been one of his lowest all year. We'll tacit because he's hit this in 12 out of 21 games, including both times against the Timberwolves. Minnesota has let point guards cash their overs on points in three of their last four matchups.
