There are eight games on tonight’s NBA slate. That means you’ll be able to find plenty of value on PrizePicks!
Like every NBA PrizePicks article, we’ll give out four different player predictions you can use for a four-leg Power Play entry. A two-leg Power Play entry will give you implied odds of -137 for each prediction. A three-leg Power Play entry will give you implied odds of -141. A four-leg NBA PrizePicks Power Play entry will give you implied odds of -128 for each prediction.
Getting -128 on the same prediction is better than -137 or -141. Here are our top NBA PrizePicks player predictions for tonight’s action.
Remember that a Flex play can still win if one pick misses, but you’d get lower payouts.

Nikola Jokic has an insane matchup tonight. He’s taking on the Washington Wizards, who rank 30th in the NBA in points allowed to centers this season.
Jokic has added at least 29 points in three of his last five games. More impressively, he’s averaged nearly 36 points per game against the Wizards in his last seven head-to-head matchups against them.
Jokic has shot nearly 59% from the field over the last ten games. He’s also averaged a usage percentage of 27.2% over that time span. That said, he’s added a 30%+ usage in two straight games and figures to be the main contributor in tonight’s game. I’m all in on Jokic tonight.
Stephen Curry More Than 25.5 Points
Stephen Curry loves to face the New York Knicks. He’s scored at least 26 points in 67% of his last six games against the Knicks. He’s also earned at least 26 points in six of his last ten games.
Ultimately, the Knicks have been weak at defending point guards. Opposing point guards have earned 25.4 points per game against the Knicks, which ranks 27th in the NBA. The Knicks have really struggled to stop point guards this season.
That said, Curry has shot nearly 50% from the field in the last ten games. This doesn’t sound wild, but knowing that Curry has attempted more than 11 threes per game in that period, it’s wild that he has nailed nearly 50% of his shots in the last ten games.
He should get some really good looks against the Knicks tonight.
Keon Johnson Less Than 11.5 Points
The Boston Celtics rank third in the NBA in points allowed to shooting guards this season.
On the other hand, Keon Johnson has recorded at least 12 points in only 39% of games this season. He’s also averaged just 5.3 points per game in his last six games against the Celtics. Beyond that, Johnson has earned at least 12 points in just three of his last ten games.
Johnson saw just 16.4 minutes against the Bulls and scored only two points. He also took just four field goal attempts in each of his last two games. As a matter of fact, he’s attempted four or fewer shot attempts in three of his last four games. In addition, he’s shot only 32.3% from the field.
I wouldn’t trust Keon Johnson tonight.
Karl-Anthony Towns Less Than 23.5 Points
Many people will be watching Karl-Anthony Towns’s response to Draymond Green’s baseless claims on his podcast over a week ago. However, KAT doesn’t have the best matchup against the Warriors.
The Warriors rank fourth in the NBA in points allowed to centers this season. Meanwhile, Towns has earned at least 24 points in just one of his last six games. He’s only averaged 20.2 points per game in the previous five. Against Portland, Towns might’ve scored 21 points, but his usage percentage dropped to 19.5%. That’s not going to help him consistently add 24+ points per game.
