The 76ers are hosting the Thunder on Tuesday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Oklahoma City is favored by 11.5 points and this game carries a total of 219 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Tyrese Maxey prop to consider from this contest.

Best Tyrese Maxey Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Tyrese Maxey Under 35.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-110)

Tyrese Maxey has been great, exceeding this number in four straight games, but this matchup with the Thunder is the worst possible spot for the guard. Oklahoma City is leading the NBA in defensive efficiency and they are giving up the fewest points and fourth-fewest assists to point guards.

In this daunting matchup with the Thunder, the 76ers carry an underwhelming 102.5-point implied team total on the DraftKings Sportsbook, which is the lowest of the 14 teams competing Tuesday by a solid gap. The second-lowest implied team total of the night belongs to the underwhelming Nets, who present a 106.5-point implied team total vs. the Trail Blazers.

Joel Embiid will remain out for Philadelphia, but Paul George is at full strength. Tyrese Maxey and George have played 11 games together with Embiid inactive this season, and Maxey is averaging 34.9 PRA per game in those contests.

While his recent boxscore would suggest otherwise, taking Tyrese Maxey for under 35.5 PRA is the right move tonight.
