Thursday’s NBA schedule brings us an East vs West clash between the Phoenix Suns and Atlanta Hawks at the State Farm Arena. WynnBET currently has the Suns as 4.5-point road favorites, but I wanted to take a quick look at some player props instead of a full game betting preview. Let’s take a look at some prop odds for this showdown, courtesy of WynnBET Sportsbook.

3 Best Prop Bets for Suns vs. Hawks

  • Mikal Bridges OVER 14.5 Points (-105)
  • Mikal Bridges UNDER 4.5 Rebounds (-125)
  • Chris Paul OVER 32.5 Points + Assists + Rebounds (-116)

Mikal Bridges OVER 14.5 Points (-105)

Bridges has found his groove over the last week and has been putting up some bonkers numbers. On the season, Bridges is averaging 12.7 points per game. However, he has been slowly growing that average to 13.5 PPG in January and he started February off with a 26 point game against the Spurs on Sunday. Over his last three games, he has totaled 71 points for an average of 23.7 PPG. He is becoming the benefactor of defenses focusing on Devin Booker and is seeing a lot more scoring opportunities of late. 

Mikal Bridges OVER 4.5 Rebounds (-115)

I’m going to double up on Bridges tonight with a play on his rebounding total. While Bridges is averaging just 3.2 boards per game on the year, much like his scoring totals, his success on the glass is growing. In the month of January, he averaged 4.4 rebounds per game. As with his points totals, he has gone well over this total in his last three games with 21 total rebounds during that span. 

Chris Paul OVER 32.5 Points + Assists + Rebounds (-116)

Paul must have signed a deal with the Devil because at the age of 36 he is still putting up numbers like a player in his prime and leads the NBA with 10.4 dimes per game. But, as has been the trend with this article, Paul has been on a hot streak lately and is filling the stat sheet on a nightly basis. Over his last three games, he is averaging 13 assists per game and he has not scored less than 20 points in his last five games. His rebounding totals are up too and he had 22 combined in his last three games. The Suns are on a tear right now and Paul is at the center of that streak. If they hope to get past an above-average Hawks’ defense tonight, Paul and Co. will need to shine one again.
