Wednesday’s Best FIBA World Cup Player Prop Bets: USA vs. Jordan
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Austin Reaves (USA) Over 3.5 Assists (-130)
Austin Reaves has earned six assists per game with Team USA while playing about 20 minutes per game. Additionally, the USA will sometimes have him close out games. He’s a premier shooter and a great passer. Reaves dropped 15 points, six assists, and five rebounds for the United States against Greece.
He also tallied 12 points, six assists, and two rebounds off the bench against New Zealand. He’s a box-score magician so take his OVER for assists. He’s soared past this total in both games thus far.
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (Jordan) Over 21.5 Points (-114)
I hope you’ve all seen those Rondae Hollis-Jefferson highlights with Jordan. He’s looking like Kobe Bryant out there and that’s not even an exaggeration.
This will be Hollis-Jefferson’s final game with Jordan. They won’t move on to the next round, but you’d have to imagine that Hollis-Jefferson smells an NBA return after his performances at the FIBA World Cup.
He’s currently second, behind Luka Doncic, in points per game in the World Cup. He’s added 31.5 points per game on 17.5 shots per game. Hollis-Jefferson has also taken over 14 foul shots per game and has rarely looked from a three-point shot. He’s getting close to the rim and getting closer, mid-range jumpers to fall. It’s an art. Take him to earn at least 22 points.
