Best NBA Prop Bets Today

  • Khris Middleton UNDER 22.5 Points (-135)
  • Patty Mills OVER 13.5 Points (-130)
  • Evan Mobley OVER 7.5 rebounds (-125)

Bucks vs. Nets: Khris Middleton UNDER 22.5 Points (-135)

Middleton has missed this line in four of the last five games and he missed this line earlier this season when these teams played at the beginning of the season. Middleton is having a down year scoring and with the Bucks being fully healthy, I don’t expect Middleton’s scoring to be the focal point of Milwaukee’s offense tonight. 

Over the last 10 games, Middleton is averaging under 20 points a game, which gives me hope he’ll stay under the 23-point mark tonight. 

Bucks vs. Nets: Patty Mills OVER 13.5 Points (-130)

Mills has been quiet of late, breaking double digits just once in his last four games, but I believe this is a good bounce back spot for the Nets three-point marksman. The team is going up against the Bucks, who will be without four of their top guards on Friday in Jrue Holiday, George Hills, Pat Connaughton and Grayson Allen, which should leave James Harden in a favorable position to get into the lane and find his trusty floor spacer beyond the arc.

Mills is averaging close to eight three's per game, so the volume will be there. I'm banking on some positive regression for one of the best shooters in the game.

 Cavaliers vs. Blazers: Evan Mobley OVER 7.5 rebounds (-125)

The Cavs head to Portland to face a Blazers squad that's all but punted the season on the defensive side of the ball. They rank dead last in the league in defensive rating and rank 25th out of 30 in defensive rebounds. That's a bad outlook against Cleveland, who features multiple 7-foot guys in Mobley, Jarrett Allen and Lauri Markkanen. They're likely to get murdered on the glass.
