Bucks vs. Suns props

Kevin Durant Over 25.5 points (-106 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Durant logged only 26 minutes in Sunday’s blowout victory over the Washington Wizards, though he was still able to contribute 18 points. Bradley Beal was the star of the show in that one, as he dropped 43 in his return to Captial One Arena. Durant had posted at least 33 points in back-to-back games before Sunday’s comfortable victory, and we’re expecting a bounce back in the scoring department on Tuesday.

Milwaukee allows the seventh most points (119.9) this season, including 121.1 on the road. Durant averages 29.1 points at home compared to 27.6 on the road, and he’s in a great spot at Footprint Center on Tuesday after playing on the road for seven straight. Durant has scored at least 26 points in 31 of 43 appearances this season, and the odds on this prop are mispriced in our favor. This should be a competitive affair, and Durant should cash this one quickly when facing a vulnerable defense at home.

Phoenix has allowed the 13th fewest assists per game this season (26.1), but over the last three, the team has allowed the fifth most (29.7). Durant has handed out at least seven assists in four of his last six on the road, averaging 8.3 assists in those contests.

Giannis has hit this mark in 20 of 48 games on the season, and 11 of those have come in the last 17 games. He’s been slightly better on the road with 6.4 assists compared to 6.3 at home. Over his last three regular-season matchups with Phoenix, Giannis has averaged 7.3 assists and hit this mark twice. Antetokounmpo has been stellar as a playmaker this season, and we’ll bank on him continuing his strong run in the assists department in this marquee matchup.

Jusuf Nurkic double-double (+105 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐

In those 24 contests, he’s got four more games with eight or nine points and double-digit rebounds.

Nurkic has recorded a double-double in seven of 10 career matchups against Milwaukee, including each of the last four. vs. The Bucks have allowed a starting big man to record a double-double in seven of the last eight, and Nurkic should continue the trend tonight.
