Best NBA Prop Bets Record to Date

Here are the plays our team is eyeing for tonight’s slate with all odds via WynnBET:

Best NBA Prop Bets Today

  • Seth Curry OVER 16.5 Points (-115)
  • Andre Drummond OVER 11.5 Rebounds (-125)
  • Bam Adebayo UNDER 22.5 Points (-110)

Seth Curry OVER 16.5 Points (-115)

Seth Curry has only played two games in Brooklyn, but he’s put up 23 and 20 points in those games while shooting a combined 17-for-34 from the field. 

With Brooklyn at home, the Nets will be without Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant and Ben Simmons once again, so I expect Curry to carry a major part of the scoring load again tonight. 

The Wizards are bottom 10 in the NBA in defensive rating over their last 10 games, so points should be fairly easy to come by for one of the league’s best sharpshooters. – Peter Dewey

Andre Drummond OVER 11.5 Rebounds (-125)

The Wizards are 25th in rebounding rate since the start of February and the Nets just acquired one of the most ferocious rebounders in the league in Andre Drummond last week in the Ben Simmons-James Harden trade. Seems like a match made in heaven.

Drummond is off a 19 rebound performance against a stout Knicks front line in just 22 minutes of action, so he should have little issue clearing this total in extended minutes as the Nets look to build some momentum into the All-Star break. – Reed Wallach

Bam Adebayo UNDER 22.5 Points (-110)

Bam Adebayo has increased his scoring as of late, but tonight will be a modest night for him. He’s only cleared this line in one of his last six games. He’s gotten close to the line, but it’s clear he just isn’t a scorer. 

The Hornets have one of the worst interior defenses in the league, but Adebayo will likely make his mark passing and rebounding tonight. Adebayo scored 20 points in the last game against the Hornets because the Heat blew them out. I’m expecting the same result tonight, so expect for Adebayo’s night to end early and for him to hit the under on this prop. – Donnavan Smoot
