Friday’s Best NBA PrizePicks Player Predictions
PrizePicks record: 55-45-1
Paolo Banchero Over 6.5 Assists
Paulo Banchero is coming off back-to-back stinkers in the rebounding department, but this is a great spot for him to find plenty of boards. The 76ers are allowing the fifth-most rebounds per game to power forwards, and rightfully so. Opposing centers need to blanket Joel Embiid for boards, freeing up the next big to gobble up the rebounds. Banchero is averaging seven rebounds per game and had nine rebounds against Philly earlier this year. For what it is worth, he has gone over this line in 17 of his last 26 games.
Kristaps Porzingis Over 16.5 Points
“The Unicorn” is averaging 19.1 points per game on the season, so I don’t understand how this line is set as low as it is. Filter out the games he has played under 26 minutes, and he is over this mark in 19 of 25 games, averaging roughly 22 points per game. The Nuggets aren’t a particularly imposing matchup for him, either. They’re allowing the ninth-most points per game to opposing centers.
Brandon Ingram Over 23.5 Points+Rebounds
Brandon Ingram finally got back on track with 28 points and a triple-double against the Hornets. Before that outburst, he had been held under this mark in points in six of seven outings. Yet, prior to that slump, Ingram had gone over this line in 23-of-30 games, averaging 23.3 points and 4.8 rebounds per game. Take the discount on Ingram in this one.
