Monday’s Best NBA Player Props
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Steph Curry Over 28.5 Points (-104)
The Warriors take on the Magic in what projects to be a high-scoring close game. Both teams rank in the top 20 in pace of play. Steph Curry is averaging 28.3 points per game at home and has only cleared this line in four out of nine home games. The Magic are allowing the most points to point guards over the last five games.
Cooper Flagg Over 5.5 Rebounds (-150)
The rookie has found his footing of late, snagging six or more boards in 70% of his last 20 games and 67% of his road games on the season. Cooper Flagg has played the Pelicans twice this season, bringing down nine and seven rebounds. On the season, he is averaging 6.4 rebounds on 11.6 rebound chances per game.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Under 32.5 Points (-122)
I know nobody wants to take an under on the MVP, but Shai Gilgeous-Alexander faces a Grizzlies team that has seven players listed as out, including Ja Morant. The Thunder are favored by 16 points, and I don't expect Gilgeous-Alexander to touch the floor in the fourth quarter. He has gone under this line in 57% of home games this season.
