We’ve got a full day of NBA action on the horizon. There are two games at 1:00 p.m. ET and plenty more throughout the day. Therefore, I’ve added some PrizePicks squares to consider for today’s action.
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.

Rudy Gobert has earned at least 12 points in eight of his last 10 games. He’s also added 14.2 points per game over his last five games. Meanwhile, he’s set to take on a Utah defense ranked 25th in points allowed to centers per game. His usage hasn’t been super high over the last couple of games. However, he’s still averaged nearly 33 minutes per game over the last 10. He’s also earned a field goal percentage of 68.1% in those games.
His usage doesn’t have to be high if he’s this efficient.
Mike Conley has hit this number in five straight games, averaging 11.4 points per game during that stretch. He’s attempted at least six shots in four of his last five games and has shot above 51% from the field in the last 10 games.
Despite his recent success, Conley’s points prediction number is only 7.5. That’s very low, especially since the Jazz rank 28th in points allowed to point guards this season. The Jazz have allowed nearly 10 three-point attempts per game to point guards and rank 27th in field goal percentage allowed to point guards.
Let’s ride with Conley to at least score eight points.
Bradley Beal has been much more consistent offensively over the last 10 games. He’s added 18.6 points per game in that stretch and has recorded at least 17 points in seven of those 10 games.
Meanwhile, he’s cleared this number in 55% of games this season and has earned 20.7 points per game in his last seven head-to-head matchups against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Ultimately, the Lakers rank 23rd in points allowed to shooting guards per game this season. The Lakers have allowed shooting guards to hit nearly four threes per game. Shooting guards have also shot 35.65% from downtown against the Lakers, which is the highest rate in the NBA.
Beal is typically good for two threes a night. He’s also attempted more than four per game over the last 10 games. Let’s back Beal to go over 16.5 points.
Kyle Kuzma isn’t getting nearly as many scoring chances with the Milwaukee Bucks since coming over. He’s had a usage of just 18.4% over the last 10 games and has averaged just 4.6 made field goals over that span. Beyond that, Kuzma has shot below 44% from the field and hasn’t even averaged one three per game over the last 10 games.
He’s also set to face a Thunder defense ranked fourth in the NBA in points allowed to power forwards. The Thunder have held power forwards to just 7.4 field goals made per game this season. They’ve also allowed power forwards to shoot just 42.5% from the field, which is fourth in the NBA.
Kuzma no longer has high volume. He also won’t get the most appealing looks against the Thunder tonight. Consider his less than to close out this entry.
