While most of the sports world is focused on college hoops, there is still plenty of money to be made in the NBA. Check out our player prop picks for Tuesday, March 12.
Look for star guards De’Aaron Fox and Anthony Edwards to come alive today in marquee Tuesday night matchups. Best of luck, folks!
G De’Aaron Fox (SAC) OVER 28.0 PTS
De’Aaron Fox has quietly been one of the best guards in the month of March, averaging nearly 29 PPG. With the Kings hosting Milwaukee tonight, this proves to be a tough matchup for the Bucks who have struggled to defend lead guards since the Doc Rivers tenure began.
DLO dropping 44 and Steph, Ant, and Harden’s near 30-point performances all came within the last couple weeks. After a poor outing against Houston where he dropped just 18 points, look for Fox to get back on track at home in a winnable game.
C Myles Turner (IND) OVER 7.5 REB
Myles Turner is a solid bet to hit his rebounding prop this game against a Thunder team that allows the most offensive boards per game this season. With Chet playing on the outside at times, there isn’t a body that can match Turner’s down low.
MT is currently quietly having one of his best seasons as a pro and against similar opponents with a stretch big or younger big, has dominated as of late. 33 & 8 vs DAL, 16 & 10 vs SAS, 16 & 10 vs CHA all came within the last month. Look for a similar stat line in his first matchup against OKC this season.
C Walker Kessler (UTA) UNDER 8.5 PTS
After returning from injury, Kessler dropped 6 points and 11 boards in 24 minutes of play in a loss to Denver. Looking ahead to Boston, a game in which Kessler played just 14 minutes earlier in the season, this is a bad matchup against a squad that defends well in all facets of the game.
Look for the Utah guards to carry the scoring load in this game, while Kessler returns value more as a rebounding big.
G Anthony Edwards (MIN) OVER 10.5 RA
While the Clippers will try to shut down ANT on the scoring end, his playmaking should take a boost today against the Clippers. In 3 matchups against LAC this season, the superstar guard is averaging 5.3 APG and in total, 12.3 RA.
He is hitting this marker against similar opponents that look to shut him down as a scorer such as Miami, Milwaukee, and New York where he averages over 10.5 RA over this season.
