Best NBA player prop bets to consider for Friday’s games

In-Season Tournament action continues Friday with 11 games on the NBA slate, anchored by a doubleheader on ESPN. Here’s a look at our favorite player props for the day’s action with odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.

De’Aaron Fox over 28.5 points vs. Spurs (-115)

The Kings guard has scored exactly 28 points in back-to-back games as he returns from an ankle sprain. This is more about the Spurs, who allow a league-worst 124.1 points per game to opponents. Sacramento’s offense should start resembling last year’s highly efficient soon, with Fox’s return spearheading that ascension. In a nationally televised game, he should go off and hit the over on this line.

Devin Booker over 39.5 points + rebounds + assists vs. Jazz (-115)

Booker has not been in the lineup a lot for the Suns this season, but he’s topped this line each team he has suited up. The Jazz aren’t exactly a defensive juggernaut, allowing 119.5 points per game. Bradley Beal is still out, so Booker will retain his heavy usage in Phoenix’s backcourt. Take him to have another monster game Friday night.

Nikola Jokic over 12.5 rebounds vs. Pelicans (-145)

The two-time MVP has gone over this mark in the last six games, averaging 15.7 rebounds per game during that span. The Pelicans are one of the worst teams on the glass, giving up 48.3 boards per game to opponents. That puts New Orleans at 28th in the league, just ahead of Chicago and San Antonio. Jokic should have no trouble crossing this mark again as he carries the Nuggets with Jamal Murray sidelined.
