NBA Player Props for Monday, February 3
- Damian Lillard Under 23.5 Points (-105)
- Pascal Siakam Over 31.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-113)
- Christian Braun Over 22.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-115)
Damian Lillard is in a tough spot here.
The spread is sitting at Thunder -12, so I wouldn't be surprised to see this game be a blowout.
The matchup is tough, with OKC being the best defensive team in the league this season and allowing the least points to point guards.
If this game stays close, then this line is about right, but considering the chance of a blowout, the Under offers solid value.
Pick: Damian Lillard Under 23.5 Points (-105)
Pascal Siakam has been playing great basketball recently, hitting the over at this number in 6 of the last 7 games.
He gets a great matchup tonight vs. the Jazz, who are top-10 in pace this season and one of the worst defensive teams in the league.
The chance of a blowout is there, but not huge (7.5-point spread), and with a 240 total, odds are that even in a blowout, Siakam should get there.
I project Siakam 3 PRA over this number, making this a great bet.
Pick: Pascal Siakam Over 31.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-113)
Christian Braun has also been playing some great basketball recently, hitting the over at this number in 5 of the last 8 games, despite coming off the bench in most of those games.
When starting, Braun has been great, with 20+ points in 3 of the last 4 games.
Braun is coming off a game where he played 38 minutes, and with Russell Westbrook still out, he should be in for minutes in the mid-to-high 30s if this game stays close (and low 30s if it blows out).
Add in his increased usage without Westbrook and the matchup vs. New Orleans, who is top-10 in pace and bottom-3 defensively, and this line is about 2 PRA too low.
Pick: Christian Braun Over 22.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-115)
