Over the last two seasons, Jalen Williams’ star turn has turned him into a fantastic partner-in-crime for the Oklahoma City Thunder alongside MVP-favorite Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Tonight, the duo face the Memphis Grizzlies in a battle between Western Conference contenders.
Here’s two top prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Williams in the action, which tips off at 9:30 p.m. EST.
Best Jalen Williams prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Williams’ prop lines on DraftKings Sportsbook are listed at 23.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists. His PTS + REB + AST O/U sits at 33.5.
Tonight’s matchup is a bit of a soft one for Oklahoma City. The Grizzlies’ top stars are both banged up — Ja Morant is questionable, while Jaren Jackson Jr. is out and will miss at least a handful of games. While Memphis is incredibly well-coached and won’t roll over for this game, they certainly take a hit on defense without their former DPOY in the lineup.
Williams’ rebounding line is one to check out at +124 odds to go over 5.5 boards. While this prop has a 27-31 record across Williams’ 58 appearances, getting this bet at plus-money still makes it worth a sprinkle. Sure, opposing center Zach Edey will gobble up rebounds, but Oklahoma City’s Chet Holmgren won’t play, leaving a bit to be desired on the boards. Williams can step up to provide some help in that department, but be aware this line may shift back and forth between 4.5 and 5.5 in the leadup to tip-off.
For the second top prop, Williams’ alt-lines for three-pointers made could prove profitable. He’s made four threes in each of his last three contests, and he’s recorded at least three makes from distance in five of seven games since returning from All-Star Weekend. Bettors can ride the hot hand and comfortably take Williams to record 3+ three-pointers made at +165 odds.
