Read below for our NBA player prop picks for Friday, February 28.
NBA Player Props for Friday, February 28
- Darius Garland Over 19.5 Points (-140)
- Chet Holmgren Over 2.5 Blocks (-120)
- Evan Mobley Over 2.5 Assists (-135)
Darius Garland Over 19.5 Points (-140)
Cavaliers vs Celtics, 7:30 p.m. ET
Darius Garland has been hit-or-miss for the Cavaliers lately, but he's averaging 23 points per game since the beginning of 2025 on about 30 minutes per game, and he should be in for low-30s minutes in a game with a 2.5-point spread.
The game environment should be great, with the top two teams in the East facing off and a 233 total.
At the moment, both Jrue Holiday and Jaylen Brown are questionable, which would make this an easier matchup if they miss, but I like this over regardless.
Pick: Darius Garland Over 19.5 Points (-140)
Chet Holmgren Over 2.5 Blocks (-120)
Thunder vs Hawks, 7:30 p.m. ET
By Kyle Murray
It has been fun betting Chet Holmgren's blocks prop in the past, so I am happy to get back to it here.
Chet has cleared this number in 5 of his 6 games since returning from injury, and he projects to do so again in this matchup against the Hawks tonight.
I have him projected for 3.4 blocks in this spot.
Pick: Chet Holmgren Over 2.5 Blocks (-120)
