Updated:

Here are three of the best prop bets for the Bucks-Trail Blazers game, courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook's NBA odds.

Bucks-Trail Blazers Prop Bets Tonight

1. Damian Lillard - Points: Under 34.5 (-104)

There's no denying that Damian Lillard has been on a hot streak, averaging a ridiculous 40.0 points over his last seven games. However, most of his production has been coming from drawing fouls. Lillard is 74-of-77 from the free throw line during that span. Expecting a similar outcome against a Bucks' team that commits the fewest personal fouls per game (18.2) and ranks third in defensive efficiency seems remiss. Lillard has not scored more than 34 points in any of his 17 career games against Milwaukee and has also been held to under 35 points in 21 of his 22 all-time matchups against Jrue Holiday. He is going to have trouble overcoming Holiday's elite ball-denying abilities once again.

2. Jrue Holiday - Assists: Over 6.5 (-113)

Holiday has the talent to lock down Lillard on the defensive end of the court and then dish the ball out on the offensive end of the court. The 32-year-old is averaging 7.1 assists per game on the season and has tallied at least 7 assists in six of his last 10 games, too. Portland is giving up 9.3 assists to opposing point guards this season, which ranks as the third-highest mark in the NBA. Not only that, but the Trail Blazers are also allowing the eighth-most assists per game overall (25.8). Holiday has put up at least 7 assists in nine of his last 15 games against Portland and all signs point to him keeping that success going on Monday.

3. Drew Eubanks - Rebounds: Under 6.5 (-111)

The Trail Blazers will still be without center Jusuf Nurkic for this game as he recovers from a left calf strain. Drew Eubanks was expected to be the main beneficiary when it came to rebounding in Nurkic's absence. That hasn't been the case in either of the last two games as Eubanks has racked up rebound totals of just 4 and 5. Meanwhile, Josh Hart has grabbed a total of 21 rebounds during that span. Facing Milwaukee's size will be tough for Eubanks as the Bucks own the second-best total rebounding rate in the NBA (52.5%) and allow an opponent defensive rebounding percentage of 74.0% (No. 8 in NBA). Eubanks won't see enough playing time to log 7 rebounds tonight.
