Today’s Free NBA Player Props

Every day during the season, our NBA betting experts will identify some of the best player prop bets available.

There are 12 NBA games on Thursday’s schedule, including Spurs @ Cavaliers and Lakers @ Celtics. Let’s dive into the top player props for today.

Mouhamed Gueye: Over 7.5 Points + Rebounds (-114) vs. Nuggets

There’s something of a safety net around this play, which I’m a big fan of. Hawks star Jalen Johnson is questionable to take part in tonight’s game. If he doesn’t play, Mouhamed Gueye is almost certain to draw the start in his place.

When he’s started, Gueye has gone 2-1 against this line, often hitting the over with ease. But he’s been effective as a reserve, too, and I would be comfortable backing the over even if Johnson winds up taking the floor. On the year, Gueye has cleared this mark in 13 out of 23 appearances.

De’Aaron Fox: Over 25.5 Points (-114) @ Cavaliers

De’Aaron Fox is proving to be everything the Spurs wanted in a starting point guard. The 27-year-old is averaging 25 points per game over 13 appearances this season while sinking a career-high 38.6% of his 3-point attempts.

Since Victor Wembanyama went down, Fox has been even more of a catalyst in the offense, scoring 26-plus points in seven out of nine games. And while Cleveland has been fairly stout against opposing point guards, I question Darius Garland’s ability to slow down Swipa. Take the over.

Using the NBA Player Props Grid

From left to right, you’ll find sections for the prop, expected value, cover probability, bet rating, and the best line available. Let’s quickly break down what these mean.

• Prop: This is the suggested bet. It lists the player name, the prop, and the matchup, complete with date, time, and venue. 
• Expected Value: This is what the grid is sorted by. This number is the difference between the true probability of the event happening and the sportsbook’s odds. 
• Cover Probability: The likelihood of the player prop resulting in a win.
• Bet Rating: Our ranking of the value of the player prop. Five-star picks are the best and most valuable picks. 
• Best Line: The best odds currently available for the player prop. Our odds grid constantly updates to find the best NBA player prop betting lines. 

You’ll also find three dropdown menus above the grid. These allow you to sort by matchup, prop type, and bet rating, respectively. Use these to narrow down your search and find the best player prop available for your specified terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

There are lots of small details that go into NBA player prop betting. If you still have some questions, read our answers to some common FAQs below. 

What are PRA prop bets?

You might see a player prop abbreviated as PRA. This stands for points, rebounds, and assists and is a combination of the three. To determine whether or not you win this type of bet, you’ll need to add up the player’s points, rebounds, and assists and see if they went over or under the projected total. 

What happens if a player gets injured or can’t finish a game?

If a player is forced to exit a game early, sportsbooks will often void the pick, meaning it doesn’t count as a win or loss. Instead, you’ll simply get your wager returned to you. If the player hits the over on their prop before exiting the game, it will still be graded as a win. 

Do NBA player props count overtime?

Unless otherwise noted, NBA player props do include overtime. This can be good or bad depending on whether you bet the over or under on a player prop. 

If you bet the over and a player doesn’t hit the mark until overtime, it’ll still count as a win for you. However, if you bet the under and a player goes over that mark in overtime, it’ll still count as a loss even though they finished regulation with the under.
