There’s 11 games on the schedule today, and we have our best player props available. We’re looking at two potential All-NBA players and one role player for our props tonight.

Best NBA Prop Bets Today
- Lu Dort UNDER 15.5 Points
- Stephen Curry OVER 30.5 Points
- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 31.5 Points
Lu Dort UNDER 15.5 Points
Dort has cleared this line in each of his last three games, but I’m going to bet on a little bit of regression tonight. He’s averaging over 18 points per game on 52% from the field and 50% from three. Those numbers are fantastic, but Dort isn’t that great of a shooter. I’d rather bank on Dort having an average game than trust that this heater will continue. – Donnavan Smoot
Stephen Curry OVER 30.5 Points
Curry is playing at an absurd level right now, but the record doesn't show it just yet due to a floundering supporting cast. The reigning Finals MVP just dropped 50 in the Warriors loss to the Suns to fall to 6-9 on the season, but he should stay hot against the Knicks bottom 10 defense on Friday night. New York is particularly vulnerable from beyond the arc, allowing the most three-point shots per game (nearly 40), which is problematic against the best three-point shooter to ever play.
The Warriors star is averaging over 32 points per game on the year and I see no reason why he can't get to his quota and go over this number. – Reed Wallach
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 31.5 Points
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Shai is the cash cow of the young NBA season, averaging 33 points per game this month while scoring at least 33 points in seven of nine games.
He's been spectacular and gets a chance to show he belongs in the same conversation as Ja Morant tonight as the Thunder battle the Grizzlies.
I expect another huge game from Shai against a Memphis defense that ranks 20th in the NBA in rating (112.6). The Grizzlies recently allowed big games to CJ McCollum (30 points), Anthony Edwards (28), and Jayson Tatum (39), so it's clear stars can score.
Shai is certainly a star. He's acting like it too, with at least 22 shots in six of his last seven contests. Oklahoma City's fast tempo (3rd in pace of play) will allow him to keep getting shots up, and I'd back his points prop up to 33.5 tonight. – Joe Summers
