Sunday's Best NBA Player Prop Bets
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Kyle Kuzma Over 17.5 Points (-115)
The No. 4 to No. 6 seeds in the Eastern Conference are very close and separated by only 2.5 games, so each game is important with under 10 games to go. The Bucks are in the No. 6 spot, but they have struggled recently, going 4-8 in their last 12. It's been tough without Damian Lillard. They are trying to find someone in that backcourt to help, but the frontcourt has done most of the damage with Giannis Antetokounmpo.
They brought in Kyle Kuzma to be another scoring option. While there have been a few good performances, it's not what the Bucks were hoping for. This might turn into a great game for him, as it's the first against Atlanta without Lillard. Kuzma has done well against the Hawks, scoring 24+ points in five of his last eight games. They are allowing the most points per game to forwards this season.
Jalen Duren Under 9.5 Rebounds (-115)
The Pistons are another team clumped into that No. 4 to No. 6 playoff seeding race, sitting fifth in the conference. Detroit has been one of the most impressive turnarounds to watch. This was the worst team in the league last year, thanks to their record 28 straight losses. They are now a postseason hopeful.
It has a lot to do with bringing in supporting veterans to help the young players develop. Jalen Duren is part of that young core. He will likely record his second straight season of averaging a double-double. We might be looking at a quiet night from Duren against Minnesota, though, who have been playing very well lately, especially on defense, as they are ninth in defensive rating over the last 10 games. It's always tough matching up with Rudy Gobert. Duren finished with seven rebounds in the previous matchup.
