The Pistons are hosting the Jazz in Detroit on Thursday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, the Pistons are favored by 4.5 points and this game carries a total of 228.5 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Cade Cunningham prop to consider from this contest.

Best Cade Cunningham Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Cade Cunningham Over 35.5 Points + Assists (-105)

Cade Cunningham is having a great season and he should have another huge performance Thursday with Jaden Ivey (knee) doubtful to suit up. Cunningham has made two starts without Ivey this season and, in those games, Cunningham has been brilliant, with 35 points and 11 assists vs. the Bucks and 20 points and 18 assists vs. the Heat. In these tilts, the guard’s usage increased 1.9 percentage points and his assist rate skyrocketed 10.0 percentage points.

Yes, both of these contests went to overtime, but Cunningham easily cleared 35.5 points + assists in both games and topping this number in regulation shouldn’t be a difficult task for the budding star on Thursday. The Jazz and their league-worst defense are in town and, despite missing Ivey, the Pistons carry a high 115.5-point implied team total on the DraftKings Sportsbook, which is their third-highest total of the season.

The Jazz are giving up the sixth-most points and second-most assists to opposing point guards this season, and backing Cunningham for this over is a must in this optimal situation.
