Sunday presents a 10-game slate, and below are three of my favorite NBA player prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Sunday’s slate.
Top NBA player prop bets
Jayson Tatum O 7.5 Rebounds (+110)
Tatum made his anticipated season debut Friday vs. the Mavericks and despite being less than 10 months removed from tearing his Achilles, Tatum logged 27 minutes en route to a strong stat line of 15 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. The forward reportedly doesn’t have a minutes restriction and Tatum should see right around 30 minutes again Sunday vs. the Cavaliers.
This game is expected to be a nail-biter between two of the East’s best teams – Boston is a 1.5-point underdog on DraftKings Sportsbook – and it’s hard not to love Tatum for over 7.5 rebounds at this plus-money price. Tatum finished with 16 rebound chances in his season debut and over the last two seasons, Tatum is averaging 8.7 rebounds on 13.0 rebound chances per game.
Dejounte Murray O 27.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-106)
Just like Tatum, Murray recently made his season debut after tearing his Achilles last season. Murray has topped 27.5 PRA in three of his five games and his workload has been increasing in his last two games. After posting 15 points, eight assists and eight rebounds across 27 minutes vs. the Lakers, Murray finished with 15 points, eight rebounds and five assists across 29.5 minutes vs. the Suns.
This season, Murray is shooting 44% from the field, handling a 27.7% usage rate and averaging a team-high 11.8 potential assists per game. Barring a huge blowout, Murray should see near 30 minutes Sunday vs. the Wizards and produce a strong stat line in this juicy spot. Washington ranks sixth in pace and second-to-last in defensive rating this season, so this is a perfect spot for a versatile guard like Murray.
Miles Bridges U 1.5 Made Three-Pointers (+105)
Bridges is facing a stout Rockets defense that has been strong at defending the perimeter this season. This Houston defense that ranks fifth in defensive rating is giving up the fourth-fewest made three-pointers per game (12.3) on the third-lowest percentage in the league (34.8%).
Bridges enters this matchup in questionable shooting form and he is an appealing bet for this under. Since the All-Star break, Bridges is shooting 33% from beyond the arc and he has failed to hit multiple treys in three of his six starts.
