NBA Best Player Prop Trends: January 10th
1. Jalen Williams Under 20.5 Points (+100) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The first trend that I found is with the Thunder's star player Jalen Williams. He gets a tough matchup against the Knicks tonight and is likely going to be guarded by one of the best defenders in the NBA tonight in OG Anunoby. He is under 20.5 points in 11 of his last 13 games, including last time out vs. OG and the Knicks where he finished with 20 points in a home game. I think we may see a more defensive game here tonight and think Jalen Williams under in points is certainly worth a look!
2. Myles Turner Over 1.5 Three's (-125) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The second trend that the oddschecker+ trends tool pointed out to me was with Indiana Pacers Center Myles Turner. I'm expecting him to play tonight and if he does, I think his 3-point prop line of 1.5 threes is certainly worth a look. Turner has 2+ threes in four straight games and in four of the last five home games. Against the Warriors, Myles has also had two or more three's in three of the last four matchups. I like the odds for this prop here and think he has a great chance to keep this trend going, especially at home where he is shooting 39% from three.
3. Dejounte Murray Over 1.5 Steals (-113) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The third and final trend that I am going to highlight is with New Orleans Pelicans guard, Dejounte Murray. The trends tool pointed out that Murray has gone over his steals line of 1.5 in seven of the last nine games. He's even gone for three or more steals in six of those nine games, which is absurd. The matchup against Philly certainly isn't the best as they are allowing the 4th-fewest steals on the season, but with how aggressive he is on defense and the Pelicans now being without Herb Jones as well, they should need him to step up in a big way defensively for this team. He is listed as questionable for this game with an elbow injury, so make sure to keep an eye out for any updates on his status!
