NBA Player Prop Bet Odds, Picks & Predictions: Saturday (1/21)

by |

There are seven NBA games tonight. That means player prop betting. Player prop betting is simple, pick a stat or combination of stats. Rebounds, points, and assists, then bet the player to go over or under that stat. 

Let us look at the top player prop bets tonight.

Here are all of our best bets for Saturday:

Saturday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets

Jaylen Brown Over 27.5 points (-120 @ Draftkings)

These two teams are great to watch. They both have players that can play both ways. That means bettors need to look at the key matchups to see who has the most betting value. The player with the best matchup is Jaylen Brown. 

Jaylen Brown averages 26.9 points per game. That is lower than the betting line, but Jayson Tatum is sitting out tonight due to left wrist soreness. That means Brown will have to be the number one scoring option for the Celtics and have increased opportunities. 

Joel Embiid Over 32.5 Points (-125 @Draftkings)

This game might be the premier matchup of the night. Both of these teams are playoff bound and are improving every game. Not only is this a premier matchup, but there is plenty of betting value. Bettors need to know where to look. 

Joel Embiid is the best offensive center in the league. He averages 33.6 points per game and can score inside the paint and from the three-point range. That makes him one of the most demanding players for other teams to defend. Embiid has plenty of betting value tonight.
