NBA Player Props and Best Bets for Friday, Nov. 22: Tyrese Haliburton To Bounce Back Against the Bucks

The NBA In-Season Tournament will return to television screens across America on Friday as several of the game’s best prepare for high-profile matchups against hated rivals. 

The story from Thursday’s NBA action was Anthony Davis missing two late free-throws and opening the door for a Franz Wagner game-winning three as the Orlando Magic beat the Los Angeles Lakers by one point.

There are only 10 days left in the Group Stage of the NBA Cup, and a single loss can make the difference between a team qualifying for the Knockout or missing out on a shot at the new trophy.

Here are our best NBA player prop betting picks for the NBA In-Season Tournament on Friday.

Best NBA Prop Bets for Friday, November 22

Zach LaVine Over 8.5 Rebounds+Assists (-132) at FanDuel

It’s easy to forget about Zach LaVine because of the Chicago Bulls’ inability to surge to contention and because his name has long been mentioned in trade discussions, but he’s having a solid season so far. He put up back-to-back 25/5/5 games against the Detroit Pistons and Milwaukee Bucks and gets a favorable opponent on Friday

LaVine, who averaged 9.4 rebounds+assists, is facing an Atlanta Hawks squad that ranks 20th in rebounds allowed and 21st in assists allowed per game. He went over this line in six of his last seven and has a great chance to add to that on Friday.

Keegan Murray Under 12.5 Points (-113) at FanDuel

Murray has not needed to take a huge step forward offensively thanks to the arrival of DeMar DeRozan. He’s also had a poor season shooting the ball, having made 43 percent of his attempts from the field and a lowly 29.9 percent from beyond the arc.

The Sacramento Kings are taking on the LA Clippers, who hold opponents to the sixth-fewest points per game. Murray only scored 12 total points in his last two games and went under this line in four of his last seven and also scored just seven points on 2-10 shooting in his lone matchup with the Clippers this season.

Dyson Daniels Over 13.5 Points (-102) at FanDuel

Daniels was the talk of the town for a hot second when he scored 25+ points in back-to-back games. “The Great Barrier Thief” only managed 11 points in his last outing but has now gone over this line six times in 10 games in November and averaged 15.4 points per night in the process.

The young Australian still is not comfortable shooting the three ball (28.8 percent for the year), but his impressive athleticism and defensive activity allow him to get easy buckets in transition and when flying to the rim. The Bulls allow the second-most points per game and aren’t overly athletic or aggressive on the defensive end, which sets Daniels up to go over this line.

Stephen Curry Over 6.5 Assists (+126) at FanDuel

Steph is only playing 29.2 minutes per game, by far the fewest of his career excluding a five-game 2019-20 campaign. That’s largely because of the incredible depth the Golden State Warriors have, which allows them to play at a faster tempo and with higher intensity since players are on the court for fewer minutes.

Despite the decline in minutes (and scoring), Curry averaged 6.5 assists, his most in a season since 2016-17. He also dished out eight helpers in his last game and went over in three of his last five. Plus, he’s facing a New Orleans Pelicans squad that is 25th in assists allowed per game.

Tyrese Haliburton Over 16.5 Points (-128) at FanDuel

Haliburton played like the future face of the NBA for two-thirds of the last NBA season, took a step back after a hamstring injury, barely saw the court during the Olympics, and has been overwhelmingly disappointing to start the season. It’s now quite difficult to answer the question “What is Tyrese Haliburton?” 

The 24-year-old only scored four points in his last game and went under in three straight games. But despite that, we’re holding onto faith that he’ll bounce back after a terrible game and against a Milwaukee Bucks team he has a tangible rivalry with. He also scored at least 22 points in five straight matchups with the Bucks over the last two seasons.
