Best NBA Prop Bets Today
- Patty Mills OVER 13.5 Points (+100)
- Darius Bazely OVER 6 Rebounds (-105)
- Brandon Ingram OVER 24.5 POINTS (-115)
Patty Mills OVER 13.5 Points (+100)
Mills has been a massive boost for the Nets this season as they juggle injuries and unavailability for several key contributors, averaging nearly 15 points as a starter for Brooklyn this season.
The Nets are giving James Harden the night off on Sunday, which should only give Mills more reps as the team's primary floor spacer around Kevin Durant.
Mills has gone under this total in six of seven games, but with Harden out he should see the necessary usage to clear this cheap total.
Darius Bazley OVER 6 Rebounds (-105)
Darius Bazley has surpassed six rebounds in three of his last five games, and now he and the Thunder are facing one of the worst rebounding teams in the NBA in the Mavericks. Dallas ranks 27th in rebounding percentage this season, grabbing just 48.4% of boards.
I Love this play with the number at six which gives the push possibility, and the odds are set at a valuable number of -105.
Brandon Ingram OVER 24.5 POINTS (-115)
Ingram is playing with renewed vigor after sputtering out a bit in November. Since the calendar turned to December, Ingram looks like a new player with a fire lit under him. In five games this month Ingram is averaging 27 points per game and has scored 24 in five of his last six outings including Friday night’s win over the Pistons.
This game features one of the highest totals on Sunday and I think Ingram massively benefits from this shootout. The Spurs have a pretty average defense and rank 15th in defensive efficiency. However, in the last week, their defense has played terribly and ranks 29th in those outings. I’m banking on another bad night for this defense and another big night for Ingram.
