Below, I have featured my favorite Isaiah Hartenstein prop bet to consider from this contest.

Best Isaiah Hartenstein Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Isaiah Hartenstien U 10.5 Points (-125)

Hartenstein has stayed under 10.5 points in five of his last six starts and Sunday’s matchup vs. the Trail Blazers isn’t as strong it seems. While Portland ranks 25th in defensive rating this season, they have vastly improved this month, ranking ninth in defensive rating in January.

Lu Dort (knee) is also out for the Thunder and with the forward off the court this season, Hartenstein’s role has suffered, with his usage dropping 1.1 percentage points to 16.5%. Hartenstein is averaging 29.8 minutes per game this season and on a per 30-minute basis, he is averaging 9.8 points with Dort off the floor.

Plus, the Thunder are favored by 14.5 points, making a blowout a realistic possibility, which would likely decrease Hartenstein’s playing time. The center has played in seven games this season that Oklahoma City has been favored by double-digits and Hartenstein has scored under 11.5 points in four of those contests.
