Steph Curry best prop bets for Hornets at Warriors

Tonight the hosting Warriors will take on the Hornets. The blockbuster trade that sent Jimmy Butler to Golden State has been a breath of fresh air for the Warriors, even prompting Draymond Green to make some bold championship predictions. And his argument has legs. The Warriors have gone 5-1 since acquiring Butler, and Curry has come alive again.

Here are some of the best Steph Curry prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Tuesday’s matchup:

Best Steph Curry Prop Bet

PTS 26.5 (Over -110 / Under -120): Curry only averaged 22.7 PPG this game before Butler’s arrival while shooting 43.1% from the floor and 38.9% from three. Since Butler’s arrival, Curry has been stellar with averages of 29 PPG while shooting 49.1% from the field and 40% from three. The spacing and rim pressure that Butler exerts on opposing defenses has freed up the Chef to move more off-ball as other teams can no longer afford to relentlessly double team Curry all game long.

The Hornets have a slightly below league average defense, clocking in at 17th. I’m going Over on Curry due to his current form.

Threes 4.5 (Over -115 / Under -115): The Hornets are excelling at limiting opponents’ three point percentage, with a league third-best 34.7% allowed from three. They’ll do all they can tonight to swarm Curry and deny him space. Curry’s O/U has been hovering around this mark all season, and it feels prudent to go Under for this figure due to the Hornets’ emphasis on denying this part of the game to opponents, especially someone as well-versed from distance as Curry is.
