The Golden State Warriors have spent the weeks since acquiring Jimmy Butler ascending the Western Conference standings. Having won 10 of their last 12 matchups, Steph Curry and company host a surging young Detroit Pistons squad tonight.
Here’s the best Curry prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for the game to check out before the 8:30 EST tip-off.
Best Steph Curry prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Curry’s prop lines on DraftKings Sportsbook are listed at 27.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 5.5 three-pointers. His PTS + REB + AST O/U is set at 38.5.
This is a bit of a tricky one to pick for. On one hand, Curry has been on a tear ever since Butler came to town. He averages 30.3 points and 6.6 assists over the Warriors’ last 12 games, which means his prop lines have crept up in recent weeks. Detroit’s defense is good-not-great and ranks 11th in defensive rating, 12th in opponent FG%, and 27th in opponent 3P%. The matchup is solid enough, but it’s scary to take Curry’s points line and three-pointers line since both are so lofty.
He could explode for a big game, but I lean towards the under on Curry’s points line at -110 odds. He’s bound to cool off at some point, and while the Pistons allow opponents to shoot well from three-point range, it feels like they may be able to slow the star down enough that he goes under the 27.5 line tonight. He only scored 17 points against them last time these two teams faced off in January, so maybe Detroit can muster up similar defensive coverages this time around.
If that’s the case, I do like Curry to dish out plenty of dimes tonight. His assists line sits at -154 odds to go over 5.5, but better value can be had with his alt lines. He’s recorded at least eight assists in three of his last four appearances, so bettors can take their pick between 7+ dimes at +115 or 8+ dimes at +210 odds. Personally, I’d go with 7+ assists.
