The weekend has finally arrived, and we’re here to share our best NBA player props to get the festivities started.
The Los Angeles Lakers emerged as victors in the NBA’s most famous rivalry matchup against the Boston Celtics, while Nikola Jokic’s historic 35-point, 22-rebound, 17-assist night lifted the surging Denver Nuggets past the Sacramento Kings.

Strus went under this line in seven of his last 10 games and scored five or fewer points in three of his last four games. He also has not been shooting the ball as of last, going 8-25 (32 percent) from the floor and 6-20 (30 percent) from the three-point line during those same four games.
Strus can be up and down as both a playmaker and rebounder, but he averaged 3.4 boards and 3.5 assists in 23.6 minutes per contest. The Philadelphia 76ers are fifth in points, third in rebounds, and eighth in assists allowed per game to opposing shooting guards, and he seems like a solid bet to cash the under.

Missi came down with seven or fewer rebounds in five straight games and averaged 6.9 boards per game in January despite playing 27.7 minutes per game. He also went under this line in his previous matchup with the Grizzlies, although he grabbed 14 boards the first time he met them in NBA Cup Group Play.
The Grizzlies are 12.5-point favorites and could end up blowing the injured New Orleans Pelicans off the court. The Grizz also rank second in rebound percentage and allowed the second-fewest rebounds per game in the new year.

Wells dropped 13 points in back-to-back games and went over this line in five of his last six. He averaged 13.9 points per game and is shooting 44.3 percent from three-point land in 2025, which puts him in a good run of form before he takes on one of the league’s worst defenses.
The Pels are 25th in points allowed per game and are below league average when it comes to defending the three-point line. Wells split the over/under in two matchups with New Orleans but is shooting the ball well, while the Pelicans will be under heavy strain due to injuries to a few of their best players.

Allen is having another great season for the league-leading Cleveland Cavaliers. He averaged 10 rebounds and grabbed 13 his last time on the court, although he went under in five straight games immediately before that, and he only had six rebounds the last time he faced the Sixers.
While Joel Embiid and Andre Drummond are both out of the lineup, the Sixers’ lack of defense should lead to the Cavs having fewer rebounding opportunities and more made shots, and they have a great chance to blow the Sixers off the court.

Bridges went under this line in six of his last seven games and averaged 6.6 rebounds and 3.9 assists per game in January. With Brandon Miller sidelined by an injury, a player like Josh Okogie, who loves to do the dirty work, could get more minutes, while Bridges should be forced to become more of a scorer.
The Portland Trail Blazers are seventh in rebounds and eighth in assists allowed per game to opposing small forwards. They’ve also done a nice job on defense in recent weeks, while Bridges’ recent performances are enough to suggest he’ll cash the under again.
