December 18 Best NBA Player Props
Jarrett Allen Under 15.5 Points (-104) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
I don't trust Jarrett Allen. He's hit at least 16 points in only 24% of games this season. He's also hit this line in just three of his last ten games.
Allen went 12-for-14 from the field against the Hawks, where he scored 25 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. He's supposed to get more work with Evan Mobley out.
However, he's just too inconsistent.
Allen is facing a Rockets defense that is top ten defensively against centers regarding points per game. Those easy looks around the rim won't come so easily this time around. Take his Under.
Jaren Jackson Jr. Under 2.5 Assists (-175) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Jaren Jackson Jr. has added only 1.8 assists per game this season. However, he's taken nearly 20 shots per game in December and has shot over 50% from the field.
He's been very good at scoring the basketball. But he's not earning a high rate of assists. Better yet, he hasn't had one game with at least three assists in the entire month.
He's failed to hit this line in nine of his last ten games. At -175, there's genuinely some value on this line.
Julius Randle Over 4.5 Assists (-125) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Julius Randle has nailed at least five assists in 68% of games this season. He's even hit this line in seven of his last ten and has earned at least five assists in his most recent matchups against the Lakers.
Randle just only added three assists against the Clippers in a loss. That's essentially why you can get a 4.5 line tonight against a Lakers team that is below-average in assists to power forwards.
Let's take advantage. Grab the Over.
Spencer Dinwiddie Over 3.5 Rebounds (-140) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Spencer Dinwiddie has added at least four rebounds in 58% of games this season. He's had prior success on the glass against the Jazz and has hit this line in seven of his last ten games.
Beyond that, the Jazz rank 28th in rebounds against point guards this season. Dinwiddie is on a three-game streak with at least four rebounds and is now facing a Jazz team that is very poor on the glass.
Let's take a chance with Dinwiddie here.
Scottie Barnes Over 1.5 Threes (-162) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Barnes has nailed at least two threes in 64% of games this season. He's also hit this line in seven of his last ten and four of his previous five. However, the game that he didn't hit at least two threes was his last one.
He attempted five threes but only nailed one in 34 minutes against the Hawks.
In December, Barnes has averaged 2.5 threes on 6.2 attempts per game. That's over 40% from downtown. If Barnes continues his average of six threes per game, he'll have no problem getting back on track against a bad Hornets defense.
