Our NBA player props took a step back last night with a 1-2 performance. The Heat players were unkind to us, as both Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler let us down. Thankfully, OG Anunoby kept us from the golden sombrero by barely staying under his rebounding prop.
Tuesday's NBA card gives us 8 games to digest. As usual, TNT is offering up a doubleheader for our viewing pleasure. The Sixers will face the T'Wolves in the early tip, while the Lakers will welcome the Grizzlies in the late nightcap.
Unfortunately, we couldn't find any value in either of those primetime games. Nevertheless, we did find 3 PrizePicks NBA props for Tuesday, March 7. Good luck with all of your bets!

Cameron Johnson OVER 16.5 Points
Isn't it crazy how a change of scenery seems to be just what some players need? Johnson fits that bill to a T. He's only averaging 15.4 points per game this season, but he's been on fire of late.
The former UNC Tar Heel is averaging 22 points per game over his last 5 outings and has proven to be one of Brooklyn's best scoring threats. Johnson has had no trouble fitting in with the Nets since coming over in the blockbuster trade that sent Kevin Durant to Phoenix.
Johnson scored 19 points against Houston earlier this season and we think he may do even more damage that than tonight with his new team. The Rockets are terrible on the defensive end. They only rank 27th in points allowed and 26th in defensive efficiency. Take the Over!
Kevin Porter Jr. UNDER 4.5 Rebounds
Porter crashes the boards pretty well for a guard, as he's averaging 5.4 rebounds per game this season. However, the former USC star has come back down to earth in that department of late by only grabbing 4.8 rebounds per game over his last 5.
We'll admit that a lot of the stats actually point to an Over with this play. However, Porter just went through a long stretch of being injured. Houston has been playing him for about 10 minutes less per game since he came back from the inactive list.
A decrease in playing time should lead to a decrease in rebounding production. Maybe that's why BetRivers is juicing the Under at -143. That's a good sign that the Under is the more likely scenario.
Luka Doncic OVER 2.5 Made Three-Pointers
We like playing Luka Overs every chance we get! This play makes the most sense to us tonight because Doncic is averaging 2.8 made three-pointers per game this season. The 24-year-old can really knock them down from downtown if he gets in a groove.
The matchup is also pretty favorable for Doncic tonight. Utah ranks 23rd in points allowed and only 15th in 3-point defense. Doncic has also gone over this number of three-pointers in 4 of his last 5 games against the Jazz.
We have a fair amount of market support on our side with this play as well. FanDuel is juicing the Over at -142, while BetMGM isn't far behind at -140. We'll ride with Luka and the Over!
