Best NBA Player Prop Bet Odds, Picks & Predictions: Wednesday (11/16)

Tonight there are plenty of high-betting value player props in the NBA. 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.

Orlando Magic vs. Minnesota Timberwolves

The Orlando Magic and Minnesota Timberwolves are struggling early this year. Most people expected the Magic to lose plenty of games this year. They are rebuilding and have young players that are still developing. There have been bright spots with Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner. 

The Timberwolves expected to have a good season after last year. During the off-season, the Timberwolves acquired Rudy Gobert, and they have plenty of scoring options with Anthony Edwards, Karl Anthony-Towns, and D'Angelo Russell. Those scoring options give betting value to Jaden McDaniels, dishing out more than 0.5 assists. He averages 1.2 per game, and tonight the Timberwolves will have opportunities to score against the rebuilding Magic.

Washington Wizards vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

The Oklahoma City Thunder are having a good season compared to last year. They are 6-8, and that is while missing rookie Chet Holmgren. Even without Holmgren, the Thunder have the potential to be a great team in the next few years. 

The biggest reason for the Thunder's potential is Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. He is one of the most explosive guards in the NBA. He averages 31.5 points per game and does a great job driving to the basket. The Wizards will provide openings for Gilgeous-Alexander to get to the basket tonight. That will only help his scoring.

Atlanta Hawks vs. Boston Celtics 

Both of these teams have some of the best scorers in the NBA. Trae Young, DeJounte Murray, Jaylen Brown, and Jayson Tatum have all found ways to score often this season. All the talent in this matchup will make this one of the best games to watch tonight.  

Jayson Tatum is known for his scoring. He averages 31.9 points per game and leads the Celtics in scoring. Something that is lesser known is that Tatum also leads the Celtics in rebounding. He averages 7.4 rebounds per game. That number will decrease throughout the season due to Tatum's focus on scoring, which gives this player prop betting value.

Jayson Tatum Under 7.5 Rebounds (+105 Draftkings)
