NBA Prop Bets for Today: Best NBA Props

Devin Booker 6+ Assists (+172)

Magic at Suns — 9:00 p.m. ET

6+ Assists

Devin Booker has averaged 4.7 assists per game through six appearances this season, but there's reason to like his chances of reaching six dimes against the Orlando Magic.

Orlando has been a favorable matchup for opposing playmakers, allowing 16.5 assists per 100 possessions to guards, one of the highest marks in the league. That creates an appealing opportunity for Booker, who remains a primary offensive creator for the Phoenix Suns.

Booker has recorded at least six assists in two of his six games this season, including consecutive seven-assist performances against the Warriors and Thunder in late October. Although he has fallen short of this number in three straight outings, the matchup and +172 odds make his alternate assists prop worth considering.

Yaxel Lendeborg 2+ Made Threes (-168)

Heat at Warriors — 10:00 p.m. ET

2+ Threes

Yaxel Lendeborg has made an immediate impact for the Golden State Warriors, averaging 21.5 points and 2.5 made three-pointers per game while shooting 40.0% from beyond the arc through eight contests.

The rookie has attempted 6.3 three-pointers per game and has connected on at least two triples in four of his eight appearances. He's coming off consecutive games with multiple makes, including a six-three-pointer explosion against the Clippers on November 1.

Tonight's matchup with the Miami Heat is particularly appealing. Miami is allowing 6.6 three-pointers per 100 possessions to opposing forwards, one of the highest rates in the NBA. With Lendeborg already demonstrating the willingness to shoot from deep, there's a strong case for him to connect at least twice tonight.

NBA Player Prop Bets FAQ

What are NBA player prop bets?

NBA player prop bets are wagers on specific statistical outcomes for individual players during a game — independent of which team wins or loses. You might bet on how many points a star guard scores, whether a big man grabs 10 or more rebounds, or how many assists a point guard dishes out.

What types of NBA player props are available?

FanDuel offers an extensive menu of NBA props. The most common categories include:

  • Points — over/under on a player's scoring total
  • Rebounds — over/under on total boards (offensive + defensive)
  • Assists — over/under on dimes dished
  • Three-pointers made — over/under on made threes
  • Points + rebounds + assists (PRA) — combined stat total for those three stats
  • Double-double or triple-double — yes/no prop on achieving the milestone

How do NBA player prop odds work?

NBA props use the standard American (moneyline) odds format. A negative number indicates how much you must wager to profit $100, while a positive number shows the profit on a $100 bet.

  • -115 odds — bet $115 to win $100
  • +115 odds — bet $100 to win $115
  • -200 odds — bet $200 to win $100

What is a points prop bet in the NBA?

A points prop is a bet on whether a specific player will score over or under a set total. For example, a line might read: LeBron James — Points — Over 24.5 (-110).

Key factors to research before betting points props include the player's recent scoring form, the opposing team's defensive rating and points allowed to their position, pace of play, and how many minutes the player is likely to play.

What is a PRA prop bet for NBA?

PRA stands for Points + Rebounds + Assists — a combined stat prop that totals all three categories into one number. For example, a Nikola Jokic PRA line might be set at 49.5.

PRA props are popular for versatile players because their contributions span multiple statistical categories. They're less volatile than single-stat props since a slow scoring night can be offset by a strong rebounding or passing game.
