Best NBA prop picks December 3: Bet on a big game from Grant

There are seven NBA games on the Saturday schedule with start times spanning nine hours.

Jerami Grant is breaking out in the absence of Damian Lillard. D’Angelo Russell could help lift the Minnesota Timberwolves offence with Karl-Anthony Towns out. Kevin Huerter faces a team vulnerable to wings.

Grant has been unstoppable lately, scoring 28.5 points per game since Lillard went down with a calf injury. He's been even better in his last four games, averaging 33 points and producing his three highest shot attempt totals of the year. Grant is playing against a Utah team with unimpressive defensive metrics.

Grant has hit the over in seven of his last 11 games.

Russell is averaging 14.4 points per game. The Timberwolves are the third-most prolific team in the NBA. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is injured and Tre Mann will be the Thunder's primary defender.

Huerter is going to play against the Los Angeles Clippers. Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are out for the Clippers, so Huerter will see a lot of bench players. Huerster should be able to top his season average of 15.5 points.
