Best NBA Prop Bets for Bucks vs. Clippers
By Josh Yourish
After the trade deadline there are some new faces headed to Los Angeles and to Milwaukee, but they’re not there just yet. The Clipper will be without Bones Hyland, Mason Plumlee, and Eric Gordon tonight, plus Kawhi Leonard is out resting his knee. After shipping out Luke Kennard, John Wall, and Reggie Jackson, there will be a lot of responsibility on Paul George tonight against the Bucks.
The deadline has given up increased intrigue in the NBA with a few big trades, but some of the smaller moves have given us value on prop bets tonight. Let’s get into my three props for the Bucks and Clippers tonight.
Bucks vs. Clippers Best NBA Prop Bets
Terrance Mann over 11.5 points (-115)
Norman Powell over 20.5 points (-120)
Paul George over 5.5 assists (-119)
Terrance Mann over 11.5 points (-115)
Mann had 21 points against Dallas on Wednesday and that was with Kawhi Leonard and the entire cast of characters on the floor for the Clippers. Now, their lineup is decimated until their new players arrive and can take the floor. Mann is a good scorer and he’ll get at least 30 minutes tonight. This is an easy over.
Norman Powell over 20.5 points (-120)
Well, I like Mann to be a scorer in this one, but the same goes for Powell. With such a short bench, Powell will need to have a big game and he already averages 16.9 points a night. It’s only a slight bump, but considering Kawhi is out, Powell will need to log a lot of minutes on the wing.
Paul George over 5.5 assists (-119)
Who is going to play point guard for this version of the Clippers? They don’t have a true point guard, and in situations like that most teams lean on their best player to become a playmaker and get shots for everyone else. That responsibility will fall to Paul George and I think he gets over this total. He averages 5.2 assists a game already.
