The Oklahoma City Thunder are still at the top of the NBA standings at 43-9, and with MVP frontrunner Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leading the charge, they’re here to stay among title contenders.
Tonight, the Thunder host the Miami Heat at 8 p.m. EST. Here’s a couple of top prop betting options on DraftKings Sportsbook for SGA.
Best Shai Gilgeous-Alexander prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
For tonight’s contest between the Thunder and Heat, Gilgeous-Alexander’s lines currently sit at 32.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 1.5 three-pointers on DraftKings Sportsbook. His PTS + REB + AST O/U sits at 42.5.
Shai is a superstar, and his prop betting lines certainly reflect the talent. He’s averaging an incredible 32.4 points per game this year, so his points O/U is set right at the cusp of his typical numbers. While SGA is capable of scoring explosions on any given night, he’s gone under this 32.5 points line in five of his last 10 games. The under on 32.5 points has hit in 30 of 51 contests on the season, so while the star guard could have a big night, taking the under is a reasonable play at -125 odds.
Another prop worth a look is in the rebounds market. Both of these teams rank top-10 in rebounding over their last 10 and 15-game samples. However, Gilgeous-Alexander himself hasn’t been hitting the boards at a particularly high level. He’s gone under 4.5 rebounds in four of his last five; six of his last 10; and 10 of his last 15 contests. The Heat boast plenty of size with Kel’el Ware and Bam Adebayo in the frontcourt, so boards may be hard to come by tonight. With that said, consider taking under 4.5 rebounds for SGA at -120 odds.
