Best NBA Prop Bets Today

  • Anthony Davis OVER 26.5 Points (-125)
  • Josh Giddey OVER 7.5 Rebounds +105
  • Jusuf Nurkic OVER 11.5 Rebounds (-105)

Knicks vs. Lakers: Anthony Davis OVER 26.5 Points (-125)

Davis has looked like “Bubble AD” over the last four games. He’s averaging close to 30 points a game and is shooting over 50% from the field. Davis is the best offensive player on the Lakers with LeBron James out and they will feed him. He’s averaging 21 shots a game and 8 free throws in that span. The Knicks don’t have anyone as versatile as Davis to guard him all night. If Los Angeles wants to win, they need a great performance from Davis. I expect him to continue on this pace as long as James is out, and the Knicks will be on the wrong side of that tonight.  – Donnavan Smoot

Thunder vs. Kings: Josh Giddey OVER 7.5 Rebounds (+105)

Giddey has been playing fine ball for the Thunder in his rookie campaign and has taken on a bigger load since the team lost Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to an ankle injury. In his last five games, Giddey has grabbed at least 7 rebounds in all of them and double digits in a pair of them. All in all, at + money, I'm taking this prop in what should be an up tempo affair and the Kings porous defense. Expect a ton of possessions and a high usage for the Thunder point guard. I can see the Aussie flirting with a triple double in this one. – Reed Wallach

Bucks vs. Trail Blazers: Jusuf Nurkic OVER 11.5 Rebounds (-105)

Nurkic is coming off his second straight double-double after scoring 14 points and snagging 16 rebounds on Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The game before saw the Trail Blazers' center score 18 and pull down 13 boards in 33 minutes of work. While Nurkic is averaging 10.8 rebounds per game overall, that number has grown to 14.5 so far in February.  He has gone over this total in nine of his last 12 games overall and is getting a good matchup tonight against Milwaukee.

While the Bucks are one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, they do struggle when it comes to limiting opponents' rebounds. Milwaukee ranks 21st in the NBA with an average of 53.6 rebounds surrendered per game to opposing teams. My money is on him to grab more than 11 boards for the third straight game.
