NBA Player Props: No House Advantage
Giannis Antetokounmpo: Under 29.5 Points
It has been an exciting season for the Milwaukee Bucks, as they have gotten out to an 11-3 start and sit second in the Eastern Conference right now. Giannis Antetokounmpo has firmly placed himself once again in the discussion for MVP. In the Bucks’ way tonight is the Philadelphia 76ers. While a 7-7 start wasn’t exactly what Philadelphia had in mind, it has won three out of its last four and looks to keep this hot streak rolling. The bet tonight is for Giannis to score under 29.5 points.
While Giannis should have a big night, look for the Bucks to get their other scoring options involved, as the 76ers will try to key on Antetokounmpo all night. The 76ers rank fourth in the NBA in opponent points per game, so it won’t be surprising for the Bucks to struggle early on to score. Giannis is projected to score 27.9 points tonight in this critical matchup at Philadelphia.
R.J. Barrett: Over 5.5 Rebounds
There can be a sense of optimism for the New York Knicks to be playoff contenders, as they sit eighth in the Eastern Conference heading into a matchup against the Golden State Warriors on Friday. A major reason the Knicks have gotten out to such a strong start is due to the stellar play of R.J. Barrett. Not only has Barrett been a great scoring option, but he has also gotten the job done in other areas, including rebounding.
On Friday, the Knicks are playing a Warriors team that loves to put up shots. Golden State ranks 13th in the NBA in shooting attempts per game and only 19th in the league in team rebounds per game, which will be a great opportunity for the Knicks to capitalize. As Barrett is projected for 5.9 rebounds via the OddsShopper NBA player props, lock in over 5.5 rebounds for Barrett in this Friday night matchup.
