Steph Curry may be sidelined with an injury to his pelvic region, but that doesn’t mean the Golden State Warriors are doomed — Jimmy Butler looks to keep the team afloat despite his co-star’s absence tonight on the road against the Atlanta Hawks.
Here’s the best prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Butler before the game tips off at 7 p.m. EST.
Best Jimmy Butler prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Butlers prop lines at 22.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 7.5 assists. His combo line for points, rebounds, and assists sits at 36.5.
The Warriors are favored heading into this one at -142 on the Moneyline. Overall, the game total is projected at 233 points, so there may be plenty of scoring here, especially since the Hawks are 17th in defensive rating and second in pace.
Butler certainly knows he has a crucial role to play tonight, and I’d expect him to show flashes of his old self as the Warriors’ lead guy. The first prop to target is over 6.5 rebounds for the forward at -105 odds.
He’s cleared this line in five of his last seven games, including all of his last three appearances. Atlanta falls 13th in rebounding and 16th in opponent rebounds allowed per game, but they’ll be missing center Clint Capela for at least a couple of weeks due to a hand injury. Without their best rebounder, the Hawks are vulnerable on the boards.
