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 eight NBA games on Tuesday’s schedule, including Suns @ Timberwolves and Thunder @ Magic. Let’s dive into the top player props for today.

De’Aaron Fox: Over 22.5 Points + Rebounds (-115) @ Kings

This will only be Fox’s second trip to Sacramento since he was traded from the Kings to the Spurs last season. The two-time All-Star has impressed with San Antonio this year, averaging 19.1 points, 3.7 rebounds and 6.3 assists over 31.6 minutes per game.

He’s played some of his best basketball of the season over the last month and should be in store to collect more rebounds than usual this evening against a Kings team that ranks 29th in field goal percentage. I love the over at -115.

Jaden McDaniels: Over 21.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-125) vs. Suns

This is a fairly high line for McDaniels to hit based on his recent form, but with Anthony Edwards (and possibly Naz Reid) sidelined, someone needs to step up against the rival Suns. McDaniels is in the midst of a career year and should be one of the main beneficiaries with Edwards on the bench.

A versatile two-way player, McDaniels is averaging 14.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game while sinking nearly 42 percent of his 3-point attempts. With some extra run and field goal attempts, he should be able to get over the hump.

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.
