Best NBA prop bets today

New York Knicks vs San Antonio Spurs (7:00pm, EST)

Victor Wembanyama Over 24.5 Points (-119) at Caesars Sportsbook

With Victor Wembanyama no longer on a minutes restriction, the San Antonio Spurs offense have been able to round back into dominant form as they currently rank sixth in Offensive Efficiency.

Wembanyama’s production has been vital to their success as the Spurs center is averaging 24.0 Points per game while shooting 34.9% from three and 51.4% from the field.

Heading into Wednesday night, Wembanyama will be able to build on his momentum as he faces off against a New York Knicks defense who ranks below league average in Defensive Efficiency.

Especially with the Knicks fielding a small lineup as Wembanyama will get to combat against less bodies in the paint when he anchors near the rim.

De’Aaron Fox Over 1.5 Three Pointers Made (-185) at BetMGM Sportsbook

With Wembanyama pulling defensive attention into the interior, De’Aaron Fox has been able to generate higher quality shot attempts from three as the Spurs guard is averaging 2.3 Threes per game while shooting 38.4% from deep.

With the Knicks ranking 21st in Opposing Three Point Completion Percentage, the quality of Fox’s shot attempts from three will drastically improve which increases his chances of clearing the over on his Three Pointers Made prop.

Portland Trail Blazers vs Oklahoma City Thunder (8:00pm, EST)

Portland Trail Blazers Team Total Under 108.5 (-118) at FanDuel Sportsbook

It has been a rough start to the year for the Portland Trail Blazers as they are currently 14 games back from first in the Northwest and in 20th in the overall standings.

Their lack of production on offense brings in a high amount of variance into their contests as the Trail Blazers rank near dead last in Offensive Efficiency and in Three Point Completion Percentage.

Unfortunately for the Trail Blazers, their struggles on offense are poised to persist on Wednesday night as they face off against the Oklahoma City Thunder who lead the league in Opposing Effective Field Goal Percentage.

For some more exposure, escalator bet the Trail Blazers team total by placing smaller wagers on their alternate unders.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 31.5 Points (-121) at Caesars Sportsbook

After winning the MVP award last year, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been able to carry over his success into this season as the Thunder guard is averaging 32.0 Points per game while shooting 55.6% from the field.

With the Trail Blazers struggling in coverage as their below league mark in Defensive Efficiency indicates, SGA will be able to consistently exploit their gaps in coverage and generate a higher volume of shots near the rim.

Orlando Magic vs Indiana Pacers (3:00pm, EST)

Indiana Pacers Team Total Under 111.5 (-118) at FanDuel Sportsbook

Since the start of the regular season, the Indiana Pacers have been abysmal on offense as they currently rank dead last in Offensive Efficiency.

With Tyrese Haliburton out with an injury, the Pacers lack the facilitation that is needed to create space for their off ball shooters which makes it easier for opposing defenses to keep a defender on their hips.

In an Eastern Conference matchup against Orlando, the Pacers struggles on offense will be on full display as they face off against a Magic defense who ranks above league average in Opposing True Shooting Percentage.

Especially with the Pacers failing to field a big who can pull defensive attention to the middle as this will allow the Magic to stretch out their coverage to cover more ground around the perimeter.
