This bet looks more intimidating than it really is. Kevin Durant is a special talent as we all know I can still understand why you would be skeptical, allow me to explain. Durant has played all 12 first-quarter minutes in 22 straight games. On the season he is averaging 8.9 first-quarter points which is absurd.
Washington Wizards vs. Brooklyn Nets Prediction
Durant has played against Washington twice this year and has hit this both times with opening quarters of 16 and 12. Durant always seems to show out when playing back home as it’s well known that he was raised in the DC area and has family that stays there and will likely be at the game.

We saw Brooklyn already blowout Washington this year and that was without Kyrie so I’m not taking any chances here betting a full game bet and will gladly stick with this unique first-quarter prop that is blowout proof. Nine points is a lot but he has hit this in six of his last seven games averaging 11.3 first-quarter points only trailing Luka Doncic in the NBA. I watch him seemingly hit this every day as a lean but this time we’re actually betting it. Let's roll!
