  • Brook Lopez OVER 11.5 Points (-115)
  • Russell Westbrook OVER 34.5 Points, Rebounds, Assists (-110)

Andre Drummond to Record a Double Double (+100)

We've got two top paced teams coming into the Barclays Center tonight for Milwaukee Bucks vs. Brooklyn Nets, setting up a nice opportunity to grab a prop at even-money value tonight.

Drummond has been insanely efficient throughout his time in Brooklyn. Back on March 26, he dropped 13 points and 11 boards on a top five defense in Miami... in under 18 minutes!

He's since hit a double-double in three consecutive games and the Nets will need additional minutes out of him to help close the lane on Giannis Antetokounmpo and help contain the rest of the Bucks' length inside the paint.

The Bucks, for what it's worth, have allowed the sixth-most points to the center position this season. Factor in the fourth-highest paced offense in the league and Drummond should close easily on a double-double at even money. – Ben Heisler

Bruce Brown OVER 0.5 3-pointers (-120), OVER 1.5 3-pointers (+420)

Bruce Brown has been on a roll since the James Harden trade for the Nets, averaging north of 14 points per game and almost six rebounds. However, the biggest development of Brown's game has been from beyond the arc, shooting 41% from 3 on more than an average of two attempts over a 17 game sample. 

The reps will be there for the swiss army knife of the vaunted Nets offense, so I'm banking on him canning just one, but the number is too juicy on him to hit two long balls after he hit three in one quarter against the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday.

This game is set to be a shootout, with a total of 243 at WynnBET right now, so expect a ton of possessions and looks for Brown with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving commanding a ton of attention. – Reed Wallach

Brook Lopez OVER 11.5 Points (-115)

Since Brook Lopez has come back from injury, he’s been firing away. 

He’s taken double-digit shots in three of the last five games and cleared this line in each one of those games as well. He’s going to get good volume tonight as the Nets will try and collapse on Antetokounmpo in the paint. Lopez has been streaky from deep, but he’s shot 40% from downtown in the last two games. I’ll trust Lopez tonight to get decent volume around the rim and beyond. – Donnavan Smoot

Russell Westbrook OVER 34.5 Points, Rebounds, Assists (-110)

Russell Westbrook is quietly playing some of his best basketball of the season over the past six games, as he’s averaging 21.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game while shooting 52.5 percent from the field and 41.9 percent from beyond the arc. 

This may seem a bit high for Russ, but with LeBron James and Anthony Davis both out, it’s going to be Russ, Malik Monk and a whole lotta nothing for the Los Angeles Lakers against the Utah Jazz. 

Westbrook has cleared this line in five of his last six games, and I think he can flirt with a triple-double once again tonight. – Peter Dewey
