Steph Curry may be approaching 37 years old, but he silenced all age-related concerns with a vintage performance on Thursday. The greatest shooter of all time erupted for 56 points on 12 three-pointers against the Magic, but can he follow it up with another standout game?
That question will be answered in a few short hours as the Warriors travel to Philadelphia for a meeting with a shorthanded 76ers squad at 8:30 p.m. EST.
Here’s the top Steph Curry prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for the action.
Best Steph Curry prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Curry’s prop lines for tonight at 27.5 points, 5.5 assists, 4.5 rebounds, and 4.5 three-pointers. His PTS + REB + AST O/U is 37.5.
The Warriors are mostly healthy, though Jimmy Butler is questionable for tonight’s contest and Jonathan Kuminga remains out. On the other hand, the 76ers are not as fortunate. Joel Embiid was shut down for the season yesterday, a massive loss for a struggling team, while Eric Gordon and Kyle Lowry are still sidelined. Golden State ought to have an upper hand, though anything can happen in this league.
A good starting point to get in on the action with DraftKings Sportsbook is Curry’s assists line. He’s surpassed 5.5 assists in three of four games since All-Star Weekend, as well as in 31 of 50 games overall this season. For the record, that’s greater than a 60% hit rate. Butler suiting up tonight would certainly help Curry tally at least six assists against Philly, but it’s still a stable play at -130 odds even without the former Heat star in the lineup.
However, overs aren’t always the answer. While Curry exploded for 56 points in his last game, his scoring line for tonight is set at 27.5 points. It’s a bit of a high mark considering his season-long average of 24.0 points per outing. While it’s slightly risky betting against the hot hand, the odds of Curry getting benched while Golden State is up big in a blowout remain high, too. Personally, I’d rather have the under on 27.5 points at -110 odds in this one.
