3 Best NBA Prop Bets Today for Sixers vs. Suns (Trust Devin Booker, James Harden on Sunday)
By Peter Dewey
The Phoenix Suns will take on the Eastern Conference’s No. 1 seed, the Philadelphia 76ers, on Sunday night.
Phoenix put up 140 points in a win over the Denver Nuggets in Chris Paul’s first game back from a thumb injury, but can it put on a repeat performance against Joel Embiid and James Harden?
Here are three player props at WynnBET to consider betting for Sunday night’s showdown:
Best NBA Prop Bets for Sixers vs. Suns
- Devin Booker OVER 36.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-130)
- Tyrese Maxey to Hit 2+ 3-Pointers (-135)
- James Harden OVER 23.5 Points (-115)
Devin Booker OVER 36.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-130)
Devin Booker is averaging 26.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game while shooting 46.2 percent from the field and 37.5 percent from beyond the arc this season.
However, he’s been ever better over his last 10 games, averaging 30.4 points, 4.7 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game. Booker is shooting nearly 55 percent from the field over that stretch and he’s cleared this line in eight of his last 10 games.
Chris Paul’s return may lead to some regression in the assist column for Booker, but he’s still going to fill it up as a scorer.
Tyrese Maxey to Hit 2+ 3-Pointers (-135)
Tyrese Maxey has been an absolute flamethrower for the Philadelphia 76ers as of late, hitting two or more 3-pointers in 11 of his last 13 games.
Over that stretch, Maxey has also taken an average of 5.0 3-pointers per game. I love the opportunity for him to hit this prop, as Philly’s offense has relied on Harden, Embiid and Maxey all having big games.
The second-year guard should be able to find the range from deep tonight.
James Harden OVER 23.5 Points (-115)
Harden has hit the over on this prop in three of his last four games, and he’s done it by taking more shots than he normally does, registering 15 and 18 attempts over his last two games.
Since being dealt to Philly, Harden is averaging just 14.0 field goal attempts per game, but I think he will be forced to take a big scoring role against the Suns’ elite offense.
