The Philadelphia 76ers have kicked their game into high gear since trading for James Harden. Can the Chicago Bulls slow down this surging team?

Let’s take a look at some prop odds for this showdown, courtesy of WynnBET Sportsbook.

3 Best Prop Bets for Bulls vs. Sixers

  • James Harden OVER 23.5 Points (-125)
  • Tyrese Maxey OVER 2.5 Threes Made (+190)
  • Tyrese Maxey OVER 17.5 Points (-125)

James Harden OVER 23.5 Points (-125)

James Harden is averaging over 26 points per game since joining the 76ers and is playing with newfound vigor. It’s amazing what a change of scenery can do to a player. Harden’s field goal percentage in that span is right around 60 percent and around 50 percent from 3-point range. 

Tyrese Maxey OVER 2.5 Threes Made (+190)

Maxey continues to put in work for the Sixers from behind the arc. I covered this in a separate article last week. Since then Maxey has continued to put up fantastic numbers from 3. He’s even gone over this total in four games in a row. The Bulls have the 25th ranked perimeter defense in the league and should offer Maxey plenty of space to operate. 

Tyrese Maxey OVER 17.5 Points (-125)

If Maxey goes over his 3-pointer prop, I think he's a lock to hit this as well. He’s gone under the total just once in his last six games. Maxey is not only shooting well from behind the arc but also has a 58.5 field goal percentage and a free throw percentage of nearly 90. I will be riding Maxey for the foreseeable future and I think you should too while he’s hot.
