Best NBA Prop Bets for Friday, December 6

Paul George Under 18.5 Points (-130) at FanDuel

George scored 29 points in his last game against the Hornets on Tuesday, but he went under this line in eight of 10 appearances overall. He also averaged 15.9 points on 40.7/33.8 shooting splits, both his worst since his time in Indiana and has not demonstrated any sort of positive consistency with his new squad.

George and the Sixers are facing the Orlando Magic, who maintained the third-best defensive rating in the league and who held Philly to 102 total points when they played a couple of days ago. George only scored 15 points when he faced the Magic on No. 15 and averaged 10 points in meetings with the Memphis Grizzlies and LA Clippers, who also rank inside the top 10 in defensive rating.

Nikola Vucevic 2+ Threes (-130) at FanDuel

Vucevic had himself quite the career turnaround, going from washed and past his prime to averaging 21.7 points and 9.9 rebounds on 59.2 percent shooting from the field and 46.8 percent from three. He isn’t a high-volume shooter, but he averaged 2.2 made threes per game as part of his improvement from beyond the arc.

The 34-year-old beat this line in four straight games and in 16 of 23 appearances overall. The Pacers are just about average at defending center from distance, but the Bulls play at the fastest pace in the league and should be able to create open looks for a player who is shooting the ball extremely well.

Jalen Johnson Over 5.5 Assists (+116) at FanDuel

Johnson has spent a lot of time on the ball this season, effectively serving as the secondary playmaker behind Trae Young. He averaged exactly 5.5 assists per game and tends to hang out around this line every time he’s on the court, though he recorded five assists in his last two games.

Johnson and the Atlanta Hawks are going on the road on Friday to play the Los Angeles Lakers, who were blown out by their last two opponents and who give up the fourth-most assists per game. Johnson went over this line in three of five games against teams ranked in the bottom six for assists allowed per game and has a favorable draw.

Brandin Podziemski Under 8.5 Points (-113) at FanDuel

Podziemski played 37 minutes and all of the fourth quarter in last night’s 99-93 win over the Houston Rockets without Steph Curry and Draymond Green in the lineup, and he still only scored eight points on 2-9 (1-3 3PT) shooting.

With the pair of usual starters expected to return to the lineup on Friday, Podz should see fewer minutes and fewer shot opportunities. He injured his ankle last game and is only shooting 21.1 percent from three this season, and he’ll have a hard time lighting up the scoreboard against the stout defense of the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Shaedon Sharpe Over 16.5 Points (-115) at FanDuel

Sharpe, one of the most explosive players in the league and still only 21 years old, averaged 17.8 points per game thus far. He also went over this line in six of his last 10 and can do much better if he starts shooting the ball the way he did during his first two years in the league.

The Portland Trail Blazers are going to battle with the Utah Jazz, who give up the fifth-most points per game. The Blazers rank 21st in points allowed per game, so this could turn into a high-scoring shootout that lends itself to the over for Sharpe and several others in this game.
