Best NBA Prop Picks: Lock In This Expert's Best NBA Prop Bets for Thursday
After 14 games yesterday, we're left with only two games on the NBA slate today. We'll have two standalone games, between the Bucks and Packers and the Hawks vs. Magic. The Hawks and Magic are playing in the NBA's Mexico City Game. Here are some props to consider for tonight's two matchups.
November 9 Best NBA Player Props
Clint Capela Over 9.5 Points (-113) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Capela has only scored 10.7 points per game this season. But that's enough to get past this player prop. The big man has shot 56.4% from the field and has added at least 10 points in 71% of games. Even last year, he hit this line in 74% of games. But he's coming off a poor game against the Thunder, where he added six points in just 21 minutes. Capela only took five shots and made two. Typically, he's taking about eight shots per game. We can expect more shots tonight. Take the Over.
Dejounte Murray Over 5.5 Assists (+110) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Although Murray leads the team in points, he's also averaging 6.1 assists per game. That's where I see the value tonight. Murray has nailed at least six assists in 71% of games this season. He also hit this line in 53% of games last year. So, he's improving on getting others involved and also scoring at a higher pace. If he's doing all that, he'll likely get more minutes. Murray is already averaging 34.4 minutes per game and should see even more action down the line. He had over 36 minutes per game last season. So take his Over in assists tonight.
Bennedict Mathurin Over 2.5 Rebounds (-164) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Mathurin has averaged over 24 minutes per game. But he's coming off a 38-minute performance against the Jazz yesterday. He scored 22 points and added nine rebounds with four assists. Mathurin's only getting better and will continue to get more minutes as long as Indiana has success with him on the court. He's hit three or more rebounds in 75% of games this year. He also hit this line in 72% of games last season. Let's roll with Mathurin to have another massive game for the Pacers.
Trae Young Over 2.5 Rebounds (-156) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
All Young needs is three rebounds in about 35 minutes. We don't even need one rebound every quarter. Young has earned at least three rebounds in three straight games. He's hit this line in 71% of games this season and nailed at least three rebounds in 62% of games last year. He's only missed this line in one of his last five games and continues to be a huge factor for the Hawks. The ball will find Young's lap a few times to cash this ticket.
