Below, I have featured my favorite Kevin Durant prop to consider from this contest.

Best Kevin Durant Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Kevin Durant O 35.5 Points + Rebounds (-115)

Many things are aligning for Durant to have a huge performance Thursday. First off, Bradley Beal (ankle) and Jusuf Nurkic (illness) are out for the Suns. With these two players off the floor this season, Durant’s usage increases 3.6 percentage points to 34.9%, and he averages 29.8 points and 7.2 rebounds per 36 minutes.

Plus, Durant gets arguably the best matchup in the NBA tonight, going against the Wizards. Washington ranks dead last in defensive efficiency and fourth in pace this season. To power forwards, the Wizards are giving up the most rebounds in the NBA.

In this elite spot, the Suns boast the highest implied team total of the 10 teams competing Thursday at 121.5 points on the DraftKings Sportsbook. Phoenix is favored by 11.5 points, but they are 4-6 in their last 10 and a league-worst 13-25-1 ATS this season. Durant should see his usual 35-40 minutes of action and easily top this 35.5 PR combo line.
