Damian Lillard is the man to watch when the Milwaukee Bucks face the LA Clippers. Coming off a strong performance in a loss, expect another solid performance from Lillard against the Pacific Division’s top team.

In 59 games this season, Lillard is averaging 24.5 points, 6.8 assists, and 4.3 rebounds on 42.3% from the field and 35.0% from three-point range. In his last game, a loss to the Lakers, Lillard put up 28 points, 12 assists, and five rebounds on 43.5% shooting.

Best NBA Player Props: Indiana Pacers vs. Orlando Magic (6:00 PM EST)

Jalen Suggs Rebounds Over 3.5 (+110) at DraftKings Sportsbook

Jalen Suggs has found his role as a utility man for the Orlando Magic this season. While he’s not been at the forefront of their offensive efforts, his defense and rebounding have been vital to their success.

In his third season, Suggs is averaging 12.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.6 assists on 46.0% from the field and 39.3% from three-point range. Suggs is coming off a match where he put up 19 points, six rebounds, four assists, and five threes on 50.0% from the field.

When Suggs hosts the Pacers, he’s a +110 to collect over 3.5 rebounds on the night. He’s cleared 3.5 rebounds in three of his last five games and in 28 total games. Against an uptempo team that is among the bottom third in rebounding, expect Suggs to thrive in this matchup.

Best NBA Player Props: Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Los Angeles Lakers (9:30 PM EST)

Anthony Davis Points Over 23.5 (-110) at DraftKings Sportsbook

As the Los Angeles Lakers aim to shorten the gap between themselves and the top six in the West, they’ll face a difficult matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Anthony Davis will be key in this meeting, considering the Timberwolves are missing half of their frontcourt duo, Karl-Anthony Towns.

In 61 games this season, Davis has averaged 24.7 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 3.6 assists on 55.5% from the field. In his last match, a win over the Milwaukee Bucks, Davis posted 22 points, 13 rebounds, and five assists on 47.6% shooting.

When Davis faces the Timberwolves, he’s a -110 to score over 23.5 points. He’s cleared 23.5 points in two of his last five games and in 36 total appearances. Averaging 32.0 points against the Timberwolves this season, Davis projects to clear 23.5 with ease against a shorthanded Minnesota team.

What is an NBA Player Prop?

In NBA betting, a Player Prop directs attention to players' individual performance rather than the overall game result. This entails placing bets on specific player actions, such as points scored or rebounds, with bookmakers establishing benchmarks.

For example, consider a bet during the Minnesota Timberwolves versus Los Angeles Lakers game. When LeBron James takes the court, a prop bet will speculate on whether they’ll hit over or under 25.5 points during the game. These types of wagers add a new level of excitement to the game, allowing bettors to focus on particular players’ performance within the broader context of the game.
