NBA Player Props Today – Sunday, February 25, 2024
Miles Bridges Over/Under 2.5 Three-Pointers Made
Miles Bridges has put together a strong month of February in which he is averaging 2.8 made 3-pointers per game, but that number is skewed slightly by two games in which he had 5+ made 3-pointers. Overall, he has eclipsed this market number in only 5 of 10 games in February. More important from a betting perspective is that Bridges has been clearing this number by shooting a high percentage, not due to high volume. Entering play on Sunday, Bridges has attempted 6 or fewer 3-pointers in 5 of his last 6 contests. Tonight, he has to contend with a Trail Blazers defense that has allowed the 2nd-fewest opponent 3-point attempts per game this month, so even 6 shots from beyond the arc is no guarantee. If Bridges, a career 35.2% 3-point shooter, experiences any regression in efficiency this evening, we should be able to cash this ticket.
- PICK:Miles BridgesUNDER 2.5 Three-Pointers Made (-125), bet365
Tre Mann Over/Under 13.5 Points
Since coming over to the Hornets via trade earlier this month, Tre Mann is averaging only 12.8 points per game and has eclipsed this market number only once in 5 contests. The Trail Blazers have struggled overall on the defensive end of the floor this season, but they have been better at defending opposing point guards than other positions. According to props.cash, 4 of the last 6 point guards to face Portland have gone under their market number for points, and all of them scored fewer than 13 points. Unless Mann has an unusually efficient night shooting the basketball, the under should hit in this spot.
- PICK:Tre MannUNDER 13.5 Points (-120), bet365
Vasilije Micic Over/Under 7.5 Points
Vasilije Micic has been erratic as a scorer since being acquired by the Hornets, but it’s hard to ignore his volume from the field when looking at this line. In 4 of his 5 games with Charlotte, Micic has attempted at least 9 shots from the field but is shooting only 37.0% during that stretch. Micic is not the most efficient scorer in the league, but it’s difficult for an NBA player to sustain a shooting percentage below 40% for very long. Even with his recent inefficiency, Micic has scored in double figures 3 times in his last 5 contests. The over makes sense here. We will live with the results if he can’t get to 8 points on 9+ shot attempts.
- PICK:Vasilije MicicOVER 7.5 Points (-130), FanDuel
