Tuesday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Bam Adebayo Over 18.5 Points (+100)
Bam Adebayo finished with only four points in 26 minutes against the Golden State Warriors in his last game. But before that dud of a performance, he had scored at least 22 points in three straight.
Adebayo has taken more three-point attempts and was getting to the foul line more frequently during that three-game stretch.
I’d expect him to get back on track tonight against the Sacramento Kings. The Kings rank dead last in points allowed and field goals made by centers this season. They’re also 28th in field-goal attempts allowed to centers. Adebayo has an excellent matchup tonight. Let’s take advantage.
Dennis Schroder Over 4.5 Assists (+134)
Dennis Schroder has added at least five assists in 64% of games this season. His minutes have decreased a bit, but he’s still managed 8.4 potential assists per game over the last 10 games.
Meanwhile, the Heat rank 27th in assists allowed to point guards this season. Additionally, Schroder has averaged just 1.4 turnovers per game over the last 10 games. He’s also averaged five assists in the previous 10 games and has hit this line in three of his last four games against the Heat.
Let’s roll with Schroder to add at least five assists at such appealing odds.
Brandon Ingram Under 22.5 Points (-102)
Brandon Ingram has added just 19 points in each of his last two games. He’s scored at least 23 points in just 43% of games this season. He’s also added at least 23 points in just four of his last 10 games and has averaged just 20.2 points in his previous five games against the Golden State Warriors.
Ingram has shot 46.5% from the field over the last 10 games. He’s also taken 17.5 shots per game, but has averaged just 3.2 free throws made per game during that time.
That said, the Warriors rank second in the NBA in points allowed to small forwards. They’re also second in three-pointers and free throw attempts. With less volume at the foul line and a below-average shot rate, let’s take Ingram to go under 22.5 points tonight.
