Saturday's NBA Player Prop Bet Odds & Picks

(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)

Jalen Brunson Over 26.5 Points (-122)

The Knicks have become a much better team with OG Anunoby, and they've won three consecutive, including a win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. This will be one of their easier matchups facing the Washington Wizards, who have struggled throughout the season. The defense is especially bad as they have the worst adjusted defensive rating and are 28th in defensive effective field goal percentage. This is also a favorable matchup for New York's leading scorer, Jalen Brunson, as Washington allows the sixth-highest points per game to point guards.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 51.5 Points + Rebounds +Assists (-108)

The new Milwaukee Bucks lineup is still a playoff contender, but they are more offensive-centric under Adrian Griffin than when they were one of the elite defensive teams with Nick Nurse. Giannis is still one of the top players in the league, as he's top-six in points and rebounds this season. After years of mediocrity, the Houston Rockets are one of the breakout teams, and they're doing it with the defense. They are one of the best perimeter defensive teams, but in the paint is where they give up most of their points. This is perfect for Antetokounmpo, who will have a stellar statline.

Fred VanFleet Over 18.5 Points (-106)

Sticking with this game, as mentioned, the Bucks' defense has regressed this past season. This is especially noted with the loss of Jrue Holiday, who was their best defender. You'll notice the regression in the backcourt as they allow the fourth-most points to points guards per game. Look for VanFleet to keep the Rockets in contention throughout this game.
