Wednesday’s Best NBA PrizePicks Player Predictions
This Season: 16-23 | Last Week: 1-3
Mikal Bridges More Than 11.5 First-Half Points + Rebounds + Assists
Mikal Bridges has cleared this number in five straight road games and 56% of games this season. He did hook against the 76ers last time he played them. Averaging 19.3 minutes played in the first half, he is on the floor with plenty of opportunity. Joel Embiid is questionable (as usual) and would make this play more appealing if active.
Scottie Barnes Less Than 33.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
Scottie Barnes has failed to clear this number in his last five games versus top-10 defenses in assists allowed (Boston ranks fourth). In two games against Boston this season, he has finished with 25 and 31 combined points + rebounds + assists. Boston ranks in the top 10 for points, assists and rebounds allowed to small forwards.
Desmond Bane More Than 17.5 Points
Desmond Bane has cleared this line in his last eight road games, averaging 23 points per game. The Spurs rank in the bottom 10 for points allowed to shooting guards, at 28.6 per game. In two games against the Spurs last season, Bane scored 26 and 24 points.
Paolo Banchero More Than 24.5 Points
Paolo Banchero has cleared this number in four of his last five road games, averaging 31.4 points. He has a hit rate of 57% this season. Dating back to 2023 against the Bucks, he scored 25+ points in three out of five games, including one this season. The Bucks allow the sixth-most points to small forwards (22.5 per game).
Dennis Schroder Less Than 9.5 First-Half Points + Rebounds + Assists
Since being traded to the Warriors, Dennis Schroder has only cleared this number three times. One of those games was without Steph Curry. He has failed to clear this line in seven straight games versus top-10 defenses in rebounds allowed. The Timberwolves rank in the top 10 for points, rebounds and assists.
