SJ's NBA Player Prop record this season: 14-11
NBA Bet #1: Grayson Allen O 2.5 Assists (-166)
Meet the Allens
— Phoenix Suns (@Suns) January 21, 2024
Sit down with @GraysonJAllen, Morgan, Teddy & Rosie and have a little look into their world beyond basketball! pic.twitter.com/SqSxWVLmmH
Season Stats?PPG:?13.8 |?FG:?50.3 %?| 3 PT:?48.1 %?| FT:?88.9 %?| REB:?4.2?| AST: 3?| STL:?1?| BLK:?1
Tonight, the Phoenix Suns (23-18, 12-11 home) will host the Indiana Pacers (24-18, 11-10 away) tonight. One of my favorite props, I am taking Grayson Allen, of the Suns, to dish over 2.5 assists tonight. In addition, I found the best value at the time on Draft Kings Sportsbook.
If you're betting on the NBA, Grayson Allen is a vital part of this Phoenix team, and remains a member of the starting five. Now with his fourth team in seven years, Allen is averaging career-highs in assists(3), points (13.8), rebounds (4.2), three-point percentage (48.1 %), field goal percentage (50.3 %), and minutes per game (33.4). Overall, he's flourishing into a prolific deep shooter and role player for Phoenix.
Coming off one days rest, Allen had a 12 point and six assist performance against the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday. With Bradley Beal healthy and back in the lineup, the Suns have significant threats offensively on both the weak and strong side of the ball. With 12 assists in the last two matchups. Allen will look to expand on that tonight.
The Indiana Pacers still remain one of the worst defensive teams in the league, While they've recently acquired two-way player Pascal Siakam, they allow the 29th most points (123.3), and 25.2 assists per game.
It's undeniable Allen's value has increased this season. He's been fairly consistent in the assists category, especially over the past two months. In the month of January, the forward averages 3.6 assists, and in December, he dished over 4 assists per game. Just having Devin Booker, Beal, and Kevin Durant alongside him alone should boost this prop value.
A prop that's hit the over in 10 of the last 12 games, Allen has over 2.5 assists in 80 percent of the last 10 games. A 67 percent hit rate this season, he's 100 percent vs. the Pacers in the last three meetings, dating back to Jan. 2023.
Although it's their first matchup of the season, the Pacers recently allowed Michael Porter Jr., Jayson Tatum, Khris Middleton, Malcom Brogdon, and Kevin Huerter to all have over 2.5 assists. In addition, this prop has a hit rate when Allen plays 33.4 minutes or more. While I'm confident in his minutes, Allens over hit rate is 90 % of the last 10 home games. It's also important to note he's dished out over 2.5 dimes in nine straight home games.
Off one days rest, he's been equally as consistent, hitting the over in seven straight games. Overall, he's tallying 3.4 assists at home this year. This prop to me is easy money, as Allens been quite overshadowed by the big three. While he doesn't seem like the typical playmaker, he's averaging way over 2.5 assists per game in the last 10 games.
When it comes to betting, I'm all about trends and finding the best value. With the fast pace Indiana plays at, this prop should soar over today. All signs point to the Suns starting five clicking together, along with Allen trending in the right direction.
Bet #2: Paul George O 2.5 Assists (-150)
This man is an All-Star.
— LA Clippers (@LAClippers) January 17, 2024
VOTE PAUL GEORGE TO INDYhttps://t.co/QWOBIWBHr4
@Kia Performance of the Game https://t.co/zLp0sjMn3B pic.twitter.com/FIA4tmyv6L
Season Stats?PPG:?23.9 |?FG:?46.8 %?| 3 PT:?42.1 %?| FT:?91.1 %?| REB:?5.5?| AST: 3.7?| STL:?1.6 | BLK:?0.3
Paul George and the Los Angeles Clippers (26-14, 17-4 home) will host the Brooklyn Nets (17-24, 7-14 away) this afternoon. One of the best teams in the Western Conference, George is healthy this season, averaging 3.7 assists per game.
If you're betting on the NBA, again, this is one of my favorite props for today. With eight assists in the last two games, George gets the Nets this afternoon.
The Nets overall are a middle of the road team, and below average in the wins/loss column. Allowing 25.9 assists per game, Brooklyn's allowed Anthony Davis, D'Angelo Russell, LeBron James, Jimmy Butler, Austin Reaves, and Malcom Brodgon to all have over 2.5 assists per game against them.
A 70 percent hit rate in home games, George averages 4.2 assists per game in at Crypto.com Arena, which is almost two more than what the line is set at today. As he continues to impress this season, PG13 is dishing out 2.7 assists in the last ten games.
Although he had only one assists in one lone matchup against Brooklyn this season, the forward has been on a facilitating tear, hitting the over in 60 percent of the last ten games. If you're looking to bet on this prop, he has 8 assists in the last three meetings against Brooklyn.
With the recent trade, James Harden has become the Clippers primary playmaker. However, George has dished out over 2.5 assists in 25 of the 38 games he's played this season. Overall, he's playing a great volume of minutes, averaging 35.5 minutes played in the last ten games. A prop thats hit in 10 of the last 15 games, look for No. 13 to fill the boxscore today.
Bet #3: Kevin Durant 30+ Points and Assists (+100 DK Boost)
HOW WE FEELIN' SUNS FANS
— Phoenix Suns (@Suns) January 17, 2024pic.twitter.com/yprhdV0v0A
Season Stats?PPG:?28.9 |?FG:?52.5 %?| 3 PT:?46.6 %?| FT:?88.3 %?| REB:?6.2?| AST: 5.7?| STL:?0.9?| BLK:?1.1
This prop was a special I found on Draft Kings, boosted to +100 odds from -185. Averaging 28.9 points and 5.7 assists on the season, Kevin Durant finally has some help. While he's only hit the over in two of the last five games, this has a 79 percent hit rate this season.
Stated previously, Durant gets a matchup with the Pacers, who allow opponents to score nearly 125 points per game. A 50 percent hit rate in the last ten games, Durant has performed historically well against Indiana.
If you're betting on the NBA, I love this prop based off his past matchup history with the Pacers. While he hasn't faced them since 2022, Durant hit well over 40 points and assists in their last two matchups. Most recent, Indiana allowed Jerami Grant, Brogdon, Michael Porter Jr., and Jayson Tatum to all hit above 30 points and assists. As I've mentioned previously, Allen, Booker, and Beal are all reliable scoring options for Durant.
Tonight, Durant should matchup against Pascal Siakam, who's only seen one game with his new team. While Siakam is a two-way threat, Durant may have some challenges there. Overall, he's coming off a 26 point, two assist performance against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Whenever I look at props, I look at volume of minutes and shots taken. With Durant averaging 35.8 minutes in the month of January, he's also putting up 17 field goal attempts per game. Although his scoring production has dipped significantly this month, No. 35 hit this prop in 83 percent of home games this year.
Since the Pacers allow the 12th most assists and the 23rd worst opposing three-point percentage,(38%), I love this boost for tonight. Statistically, the Pacers allow teams to shoot 50 percent from the field, and allow 27 free-throw attempt. This should be a great matchup tonight.

NBA Bet #1: OG Anunoby O 1.5 3PTM (-130)
KNICKS WIN!! pic.twitter.com/tY1bXTBkUZ
— NEW YORK KNICKS (@nyknicks) January 10, 2024
Season Stats?PPG:?15 |?FG:?49.7 %?| 3 PT:?38.4 %?| FT:?73.1 %?| REB:?4.1?| AST: 2.4?| STL:?1.1?| BLK:?0.4
Tonight, the Knicks play the Mavericks on the road. 5-0 since trading for former Raptor OG Anunoby, the Knicks have recent wins over the Trail Blazers, Wizards, 76ers, Bulls, and Timberwolves. Known for his defensive prowess, Anunoby is finding his stride on the offensive end with the Knicks.
Coming off a 23 points performance against Portland, Anunoby shot 66.7 percent from deep, on six attempts. This evening, he faces a Mavericks team who allow the 20th most points (116.9), and rank 19th and 15th in opponent three-point attempts (13.3) and percentage (36.5).
Although he's on a new team, Anunoby has a history of success against Dallas, hitting over 1.5 three pointers in their last three meetings. A cumulative of nine three-pointers made in those matchups, the newly acquired Knick has a 63 percent hit rate this season.
Able to hit this prop in five of the last eight games, OG will continue on the road, where he's hit this prop in five of the last ten, and 10 out of the last 15 games. With Luka Doncic out, and Grant Williams, Derek Lively II, and Max Klever listed as questionable, this a prime matchup for him.
OG Anunoby is a perfect fit with the Knicks
Most recent, Dallas allowed forwards Ziaire Williams, Toumani Camara, Simone Fontecchio, Caris LeVert, Georges Niang, Isaac Okoro, and Grayson Allen all to hit over 1.5 made three-pointers. While Dallas ranks in the bottom tier against small fowards, Anunoby should be able this hit this no problem.
If you're betting on the NBA, Anunoby is shooting 45.5 percent from deep since acquired by the Knicks. Averaging 4.4 three-point attempts with New York, his current three-point percentage is a career-high.
In one game against the Mavericks, the Knicks forward has 26 points on 3-8 (37.5 percent) three-point shooting. Shooting over 37 percent from the corner, the Mavericks allow the most corner threes in the NBA. While Doncic remains out, it shouldn't affect this prop too much. He's been hot, and he ranks second in the league in made corner threes.
A catch and shoot floor spacer, I'm hot on this prop tonight.
NBA Bet #2: Chet Holmgren O 27.5 PRAs (-120)
Dub finds Chet down low
— OKC THUNDER (@okcthunder) January 11, 2024pic.twitter.com/TN0PJxDAUt
Season Stats?PPG:?17.9 |?FG:?55.5%?| 3 PT:?40.3 %?| FT:?81 %?| REB:?7.4?| AST: 2.7?| STL:?0.2?| BLK:?2.6
Thunder's Chet Holmgren is making a strong case for the Rookie of the Year, next to Victor Wembanyama. Known for his blistering defense, he's coming off an efficient night. Excellent off cuts and in transition, Holmgren had 23 points, three blocks, two assists, and nine rebounds in Wednesday's victory over Miami.
At first I was hesitant about this prop, due to a potential blow out. However, Holmgren is averaging 30 minutes in those last few blowout games. Tonight, he gets the Trail Blazers, who allow the 17 most points (116.2), 24th most rebounds (45.2), and 19th most assists (27.1). With the departure of star Damian Lillard, Portland's been faced with a rebuild and injuries.
Most recent, Portland allowed Nic Claxton, Day'ron Sharpe, Jusuf Nurkic, Zach Collins, and Domantas Sabonis to all his over points, rebounds, and assists. If Deandre Ayton is out for tonights matchup, Holmgren may have an easier matchup.
Although the Thunder will play their second straight game, Holmgren continues to be efficient off zero days rest. In these situations, the big man is averaging 16 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.3 assists. It is important to note, in four games off zero games rest, Holmgrens has an average 24 minutes played, compared to a high 31.3 minutes off one days rest.
The Thunder are unleashing Holmgren
With Oklahoma City back home, Holmgren averages 18.7 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 19 games in front of their fans. If you're betting on this prop, it has a 58 percent hit rate when the Thunder are home, and it's hit in five of the last home matchups.
If you're betting on the NBA, this prop hit in 70 percent of the last 10 games, and is extremely effective when playing 30.1 minutes or more. Coming off two straight prop hits against the Heat and Washington, Holmgren hit this prop against back-to-back matchups against the Timberwolves and Knicks.
Leading OKC in rebounds (7.4), Holmgren is averaging 17.9 points, and 2.7 assists per game. In one game against Portland, he did not hit the over, putting up 16 points, six rebounds, and zero assists (22 PRAs). Over the last ten games, the former Gonzaga BullDog is putting up 20 points, six rebounds, and three assists.
NBA Bet #3: Kevin Durant O 26.5 Points (-150)

Tonight, the struggling Suns get the Lakers. Even with Bradley Beal back in the starting lineup, I'm taking Kevin Durant over 27.5 points scored. One of the most bet props tonight on Draft Kings, Durant has a prime matchup against Los Angeles.
A prop hit rate of 67 percent this season, Durant has over 27.5 points in his last four matchups against the Lakers. Averaging 36 points in three games against them this season, Durant will face Los Angeles for the first time with both Beal and Booker in the lineup. In six games with a healthy Big 3, this prop hit three of six games (50 percent) for Durant.
While he's been inconsistent of late, Durant hit this prop just 60 percent of the last ten games. Coming off a 30 point performance against the Clippers, he'll get a primetime matchup tonight.
Why I like this prop tonight
While there's a slight risk Beal and Booker affect his points, he has an excellent projected matchup tonight. 16th in opponent points allowed (115.1), the Lakers allow a league low 14.4 three-point attempts, and 38.4 percentage. Dealing with injuries and inconsistencies, Los Angeles recently allowed forward Scottie Barnes, Ziaire Williams, Jaime Jaquez Jr., and Herbert Jones to all hit over their props.
Tonight is going to be a classic showdown between Durant and LeBron James. Off two days rest, this prop hit in three of the last five games. In 24 regular season career matchups against LeBron, Durant averages 27.3 points per game on 50 percent field goal shooting.
An elite scorer, Durant can score anywhere on the court, and has done it with ease most of the season. In the last ten games, he's putting up 25 points, on 50 percent three-point shooting. A combined 40 field goal attempts, he's playing 35.5 minutes in two games this month.

NBA Bet #1: Phoenix Suns -13
"That's a hell of a win...You guys are grinding through it."
— Phoenix Suns (@Suns) November 20, 2023
6 players scored in double figures to help get the 2OT win last night!Sights and sounds from the locker room after last night's win pic.twitter.com/2LDCM1TAZT
Tonight, the Phoenix Suns (7-6, 2-4 Home) will host the Portland Trail Blazers (3-10, 2-5 Away) on their home court. With the Suns money line set a -900, it's too high, and too much risk to earn any reward if they win. The Suns are coming off three consecutive wins, two of which were against the Utah Jazz. For Portland, they continue to deal with injuries, and are on a 7 game skid. Offensively, the Trail Blazers are the worst team in the league, averaging only 102.9 points per game, and hitting 30.5 percent from long range.
The Suns haven't lived up to their potential, in large part due to injuries to Booker and Beal. While Beal remains sidelined with an injury, the Suns are starting to gel and come together as a team. While they are second in three-point percentage (39.2), they remain a top ten offensive team. Much like years past, defense remains an issue.
Overall, Phoenix is 5-7-1 against the spread, and for Portland, 5-8-0. In their last ten matchups, the Suns are 7-3, and covered the spread 6-10 games. Since the start of the season, this is the largest spread margin the Suns have faced, specifically at home. The biggest spread this team has covered when favored was -5.5 against the Utah Jazz.
Phoenix Money Line is a high risk low reward
It's hard for some bettors to make a case when the Suns haven't covered the spread in two straight games, and have yet to cover a spread in double figures. However, Portland hasn't covered a spread in four consecutive matchups against the Thunder, Lakers, Cavaliers, and Jazz. While some believe this game will be close since it's a group tournament game, It's hard to fade Phoenix with the way Durant has been playing.
If you're betting on the NBA, it's simply a brutal time for a banged up Portland team. The Suns have enough healthy players to win this game by a significant amount tonight.
NBA Bet #2: Kevin Durant O 33.5 Points and Assists
KD over his last 3 games:
— Phoenix Suns (@Suns) November 20, 202336.0 PPG
He also becomes the first player in Suns history to score 400+ points through the first 13 games of a season. pic.twitter.com/2seDFUfIQy
Season Stats PPG: 31.4 | FG: 52.8 % | 3 PT: 49.2 % | FT: 87.3 % | REB: 7.2 | AST: 5.5 | STL: 0.8 | BLK: 1.2
In his first full year with the Phoenix Suns, Forward Kevin Durant is putting up career numbers in points scored, next to his 2013-2014 season in Oklahoma City. Without Bradley Beal, the Suns have Durant, Devin Booker, and surprisingly have depth behind them. Averaging just over 30 points per game, Durant's coming off three straight 30 plus games, against the Utah Jazz and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
If you're betting on the NBA, Durant hit over 33.5 points and assists in 6 consecutive home matchups. A prop that hit close to 60 percent last season, Durant faces a young Portland team, who has several injuries. With Robert Williams III out for the season, guards Scoot Henderson and Anfernee Simons remain sidelined. Additionally, guard Malcom Brogdon is questionable for Portland tonight. He's hit this prop by a large margin in three straight games, including the last two matchups against the Trail Blazers.
Led by head coach Chauncey Billups, the Trail Blazers defense surprisingly isn't all that bad. Ranking middle of the road in points allowed, Portland isn't a great rebounding team, and allows opponents to average 48.9 percent from the field. In the last week, this team allowed LeBron James to hit well over his prop, finishing at 44 points and assists.
Why Kevin Durant can hit this prop
Averaging 5.5 assists this season, Durant is a prolific scorer, who I believe will torch this team. In addition, he's coming off a 10 assist game against the Utah Jazz, and has 25 dimes in three games. For a Phoenix team that is a bit thin on the bench, Durant has solid production around him from Booker, Eric Gordon, Grayson Allen, Jusuf Nurkic, and Drew Eubanks.
If you're betting on the NBA, Durant is one of the best in the league, and has been torching defenses this season. In the month of November, No. 35 is averaging an incredible 33.3 points and 5.8 assists per game. Playing well over 35 minutes a game, the Suns forward is averaging 20.5 field goal attempts per game, which is two more than his career average. If he was able to torch the 76ers, Lakers, Timberwolves, and Jazz, I see him doing it tonight.
The only way this prop won't hit, is if the Suns are out by a large amount, and Frank Vogel decides to pull Durant. With No. 35 in the MVP race, it's hard to envision him playing limited minutes tonight.
NBA Bet #3: Bruce Brown O .5 3PTM
Sunday's starting five. pic.twitter.com/SrpwXWg81h
— Indiana Pacers (@Pacers) November 19, 2023
Season Stats PPG: 11.3 | FG: 46.5 % | 3 PT: 38.6 % | FT: 87.1 % | REB: 4.6 | AST: 2.6 | STL: 0.9 | BLK: 0.4
This was one of my favorite props during last year's NBA Finals, and I'm bringing it back tonight. Bruce Brown signed with the Indiana Pacers in the offseason, which now includes Brown into their starting lineup. Starting all 12 games this season, Indiana finds themselves at all 7-5, ranking as the 6th seed in the Eastern Conference. Full of talent, this team is an offensive powerhouse, ranking first in points per game (125.7). Full of scorers, the Pacers rank 6th in three point attempts per game (39.5), and top ten in three-point percentage (37.8). Brown brings championship experience to this team, and remains a player that has a career three-point 34.4 percentage.
If you're betting on the NBA, Bruce Brown is coming off one made shot from long distance against the San Antonio Spurs. A prop that hit nearly 70 % in the 2022-2023 season, Brown hit at least one three in seven of the last ten, and three of the last five games. Averaging 11.3 points a game, the guard is shooting a solid 38.6 percent from beyond the arc, and is playing a career high 30.8 minutes.
The Atlanta Hawks struggle defensively
Tonight, Brown faces the Hawks, who allows the 24th most points per game (117.9), and allow the 23rd worst opponent three-point percentage (37 percent). Along with the Pacers high scoring ability, Brown finds himself a prime matchup against Atlanta, who allowed allowed Tobias Harris, Robert Covington, Josh Hart, Kevin Knox II, and Jaime Jaquez Jr. to all knock down one three since Nov. 11. For guards, the Hawks surrendered at least one three pointer in five consecutive games from De'Anthony Melton, Quentin Grimes, Alec Burks, Jaden Ivey, and Josh Richardson.
I'm truly picking the over tonight, strictly due to the matchup against Atlanta. Although his minutes and production was down last matchup against the Magic, Brown is averaging 3.2 three-point attempts in November. Although he's 0-4 in away games for this prop, the Indiana forward hit the over 100 percent against Atlanta last season, including a matchup on the road.
To me, 0.5 is a small number, and a line that hasn't increased since last year's Finals against the Miami Heat. Known for his corner threes, Brown is averaging more playing time than ever, and has a significant shot volume increase.
If you're betting on the NBA, I'm going with the over 0.5 three pointers made tonight.
Bonus Bets:
Gary Trent Jr. O .5 Steals
Hawks vs. Pacers O 252 Points
