NBA Player Props and Best Bets for January 10: Jalen Brunson, Paolo Banchero Props and More

There are only a few more hours until the weekend arrives, and we’ve got the best NBA player props to help bridge the gap.

We correctly predicted Ja Morant would go under his combined points, rebounds, and assists line in the Memphis Grizzlies’ loss to the Houston Rockets last night, while Darius Garland dropped 40 points to keep the Cleveland Cavaliers’ winning streak alive.

Here are our best NBA prop picks for Friday night.

Best NBA Prop Bets for Friday, January 10

Jalen Brunson Under 26.5 Points+Rebounds (-111) at FanDuel

Brunson went under this line in four of his last five games and in five of eight games against teams ranked in the top five in points allowed per game, including his only previous matchup with the Oklahoma City Thunder. OKC ranks second in points allowed per game overall and third in points allowed to point guards per game, and they held Brunson to 22 points and three boards on 9-23 shooting when they played on Jan. 3.

Brunson averaged 25.0 points and 3.0 rebounds and has been somewhat sporadic recently, scoring 22 or fewer points in five of his last nine games. OKC does a terrific job defensively and has been even better since Cason Wallace joined the starting lineup.

Paolo Banchero Over 4.5 Rebounds (-148) at FanDuel

Banchero is about to play his first game since Oct. 30. He averaged 8.8 rebounds and went over in all five games in which he appeared before he suffered a torn oblique, and while there may be concerts of rust or a minutes restriction, we think they’re overblown. 

Using Banchero’s rebound and minutes averages, he should get 4.8 rebounds if he is on the court for only 20 minutes, a reasonable amount in his first game back. The Milwaukee Bucks are also 24th in rebounds allowed per game and are a favorable matchup for Banchero.

Dennis Schroder Under 10.5 Assists+Rebounds (+100) at FanDuel

Schroder just doesn’t fit in with the Golden State Warriors, plain and simple. He averaged 9.8 points, 4.8 assists, and 2.2 rebounds in 28.4 minutes per night and went under this line in 11 of 12 games ever since he was traded to Golden State by the Brooklyn Nets.

The Warriors are facing the Indiana Pacers, who rank fourth in rebounds and seventh in assists allowed per game to opposing point guards. Schroder had six assists and no rebounds last night and is now on the second night of a back-to-back, which doesn’t bode well for his chances.

Payton Pritchard Under 7.5 Rebounds+Assists (-111) at FanDuel

Pritchard is having a fantastic season and is the betting favorite to win the Sixth Man of the Year award… but that doesn’t mean he isn’t still a solid bet to go under his line in this market. After all, he went under in four straight and five of his last six games, and he averaged just 15.5 minutes over his last two outings.

The Celtics are facing a Sacramento Kings squad that is eighth in defensive rating ever since it fired Mike Brown and that ranks second in rebounds and ninth in assists allowed per game during that same stretch. Sacramento is also third in rebounds and fourth in assists allowed per game to opposing point guards for the season as a whole.

Zach Lavine Over 26.5 Points (-102) at FanDuel

LaVine scored 21+ points in four straight games and has been remarkably efficient shooting the ball, making 42.3 percent of his three-point attempts in January and 48 percent in December. He also dropped 32 points in 31 minutes on 60 percent shooting when he met the Wizards on New Year’s Day.

The Wizards allowed the most points per game and are down several players from their already-weak rotation. LaVine is hot and going against the worst defense in basketball, so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him have another strong outing.
