We’ve got another eight-game slate in the NBA to dissect.
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.

Toronto’s RJ Barrett has added at least 17 points in 76% of games this season. He’s also cleared this number in 71% of head-to-head games against the Philadelphia 76ers dating back to late 2021.
The Toronto small forward will battle a 76ers defense ranked 24th in field goal percentage against small forwards. The 76ers have also allowed a high rate of three-point field goal attempts and typically send small forwards to the foul line at an above-average rate.
In the last ten games, Barrett has shot over 45% from the field. He’s also attempted more than five threes per game while getting to the foul line a couple of times as well.
Barrett has a quality matchup. Take his more than.
De’Andre Hunter will take on a Clippers defense ranked dead last in field goal percentage allowed to small forwards. That sounds appealing for Hunter, who is a small forward.
The Clippers rank 26th in three-point field goal percentage allowed to small forwards. They’ve also allowed three three-pointers per game from small forwards, which is 22nd in the NBA.
Ultimately, Hunter has shot 48.4% over the last 10 games. He’s been a bit weak from downtown but should get some open looks. He’s still taken nearly five threes per game over the last 10. That’s enough for me to grab his over.
With C.J. McCollum, Brandon Boston and Zion Williamson out, Jordan Hawkins is expected to take on a heavy workload tonight. That said, he’s added at least 16 points in only 23% of games. He’s also shot 36.9% from the field over the last 10 games.
In addition, he’s attempted 6.2 threes per game over the last 10, hitting an average of just two threes per game. He’s shooting below 31% from downtown over that span.
Meanwhile, he’ll take on a Hornets defense that has performed well against shooting guards. The Hornets rank fifth in the NBA in points allowed to shooting guards this season. The Hornets have also limited shooting guards to the second-lowest field goal attempts per game this year. Consider Hawkins to score less than 15.5 points.
While Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey are out, Dennis Schroder will take over. Still, he doesn’t have an elite matchup. Instead, he’s facing a Minnesota defense that has performed well against shooting guards this season.
The Timberwolves have limited point guards to the fifth-lowest field goal percentage in the NBA. Point guards have also recorded below three three-pointers per game against the Timberwolves this season. Schroder won’t have it easy, despite having the ball in his hands more often.
After all, he’s shot 37.4% from the field over the last 10 games. He’s also hit just 20.6% from downtown in that same period. Grab the less than.
