There are six NBA games on Friday’s schedule, including Knicks @ Pistons and Heat @ Celtics. Let’s dive into the top player props for today.
Nique Clifford: Over 10.5 Points + Rebounds (-105) vs. Clippers
Rookie swingman Nique Clifford has been largely unproductive this season, but he’s earned more minutes lately and could see his role expand down the stretch. The Kings are firmly out of the playoff picture, and it would do them well to develop what young talent they have on the roster.
Clifford has earned about 30 minutes per game over his last six, averaging 9.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists. He’s cleared this line with points alone in three of those appearances, so I like his chances of getting the job done with the Clippers in town.
Johnny Furphy: Over 8.5 Points + Assists (-115) @ Bucks
The Pacers look poised to embrace the tank down the final stretch of the season, meaning we could start seeing more minutes allocated to players like Johnny Furphy. The second-year wing has started in 16 straight games, and he approached 29 minutes in his last outing – his third-most all year.
His production has been inconsistent, but this Milwaukee defense is nothing special. Moreover, in his last time out, Furphy notched 14 points, seven rebounds and a season-high six assists, showcasing his all-around ability. I’m in on the over at this relatively low line.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
