The 76ers host the Grizzlies on Saturday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Memphis is favored by 2.5 points and this game’s total is set at 2221.5 points.
Joel Embiid and Paul George were full participants at practice on Friday, but they will still not make their season debuts on Saturday. That means it remains the Maxey show. Over the last two contests, Maxey has garnered a usage rate of 34.9% and 36.6%. He’s played a whopping 40.1 and 47.8 minutes. The 76ers are 1-3 on the season and Nick Nurse knows his best chance to get another W is to run his main man out there for as long as he can.
Below, I have featured my favorite Maxey prop to consider from this contest.
Best Tyrese Maxey Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Tyrese Maxey O 30.5 points (-110)
As mentioned in the intro, Maxey has been playing a ton of minutes and carrying a hefty offensive load. He’s attempted 25 and 32 shots over the last two games and scored 32 and 45 points. The Grizzlies are third in offensive pace and 17th in defensive efficiency. There are going to plenty of possessions for fantasy goodies and Maxey is going to have to do his thing to make this game competitive.
Tyrese Maxey 4+ Three Pointers Made (-120)
Maxey is a career 39% shooter from downtown. Through four games this season, he’s converting only 22%. Now, some of the loss in efficiency is due to carrying the offensive load and being the main focus of defenses. That said, he’s averaging 12 shots from beyond the arc, the Grizzlies allow the fourth-most three-point attempts and are allowing the 12th-highest three-point percentage.
