The Hornets are desperate to snap a seven-game skid against a dominant Cavaliers squad Saturday afternoon. Brandon Miller is in the midst of a sophomore breakout, proving why he was worthy of being picked second overall a year ago.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Charlotte is currently +11.5-point underdogs, with the game’s point total set at 221. Below, I’ve honed in on my favorite player prop centered around Miller in this Eastern Conference clash.
Best Brandon Miller Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Brandon Miller 30+ Points (+125)
With LaMelo Ball sidelined with a calf injury, Brandon Miller gets slotted into the team’s top option offensively. The 22-year-old is a professional bucket who uses his elastic frame to rise over defenders and drain jumpers. His game is based on the perimeter, using a tight handle to create off the dribble and getting skinny around screens to generate enough space to fire cleanly.
Miller is lethal from a distance, converting 37% of his triples on nearly 11 attempts a night. He’s one of the league’s most talented shooters and now has a neon-green light as the squad’s primary offensive hub.
The University of Alabama product has taken at least 19 shots in five straight outings, crossing the 30-point mark twice in that span. He’s going to continue to launch, and his scoring output should see a steady uptick as a result. Cleveland has a scary interior defense but struggles to guard the arc and can get blitzed from downtown. Miller should be ready to go to work from three-point land from the jump and surpass this line.
