We'll be with you until the NBA Finals, so check our NBA hub each Tuesday and Thursday to see the best props of the night.
NBA Prop Bets & Picks: Thursday, Feb. 1
After a quick browse through the NBA slate tonight, here are the best prop bets we've found.
Jrue Holiday OVER 13.5 Points (-122)
A few things are working in Holiday's favor on Thursday. Firstly, his 13.5-point total is lower than usual, so the vig is slightly heavier on the OVER.
Beyond that, Holiday has consistently tallied more than 13.5 points per game. He's hit the OVER in four of his last five, boosting his OVER rate to exactly 50% on the season. The Lakers are also 29th in basketball at defending the point guard position.
LeBron James OVER 7.5 Assists (-114)
"The King" has been in his dime-dishing era lately, handing out assists like Oprah hands out automobiles. LeBron is averaging 8.3 APG over his last eight contests, and he's hit the OVER in four consecutive contests.
He handles Boston well, too. James has cashed the OVER 7.5 in his last three games vs the C's dating back to last season.
LeBron James OVER 1.5 Threes Made (-158)
Hey, if it ain't broke...
Apologies for going to the well again, but James' marksmanship has been outstanding over the last 10 games. He's nailed at least 1.5 threes in seven straight games and eight of his last 10. On the year, he's hit the OVER 1.5 in 68% of games.
I smell a triple-double from LBJ on Thursday. And that's nearly impossible without a gaggle of three-pointers.
