The Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Clippers headline the late night NBA slate on Monday.

With superstars Damian Lillard and Paul George doing battle, how should we attack this game from a prop perspective?

WynnBET Sportsbook has you covered with a full serving of props for this one, so let's breakdown three of our favorites.

Best Prop Bets for Blazers vs. Clippers

  • Damian Lillard UNDER 29.5 Points (-120)
  • Nassir Little OVER 9.5 Points (+100)
  • Paul George OVER 28.5 Points (+105)

Damian Lillard UNDER 29.5 Points (-120)

Lillard hasn't got off to a great start, averaging just under 20 points per game through two and shooting 40 percent from the field. While this isn't the end of Lillard's reign as one of the most devastating scorers in the league, I don't think this matchup suits him well to put up a big scoring performance.

The Clippers have a litany of lanky defenders that can step out and guard him from beyond the arc including George, Terance Mann and Reggie Jackson.

Lillard's been able to effect the game in other ways, dishing out a combined 19 assists thus far, and I think he plays the role of facilitator again.

Nassir Little OVER 9.5 Points (+100)

Little received rave reviews in training camp and showed some of his upside in the team's blowout win over the Suns, scoring 11 points on 10 field goal attempts (four of which came from beyond the arc).

This game has the highest total of the night, 230.5, so I'm counting on points to be easy to come by. If Little receives similar minutes that he did in the Phoenix game (27) and continues to hoist from deep, he can clear this total with room to spare.

Paul George OVER 28.5 Points (+105)

PG is averaging 35 points through two games. While that number will trickle down, the game plan from Clippers head coach Ty Lue and the coaching staff is clear, let George run the team.

The forward is posting a career high usage rate of nearly 34% this season, meaning that he is contributing on more than a third of the Clippers offensive possessions.

The Blazers defense doesn't have an answer for George and the Clippers, the team had the second-worst defensive rating last season and the total of this game as we mentioned is sky high.

PG is going to show out in this one, I love this over at a plus-money price.
