Happy Tuesday to all of you sports fans out there! It’s another great day to be a fan, and we’re excited that March Madness is just around the corner. With NBA and NCAA action going down every night, we couldn’t be more thrilled to head over to Underdog and put our favorite player props together.
While we’ve been doing that all season, it means more during this time of year, as it feels more magical than the rest of the year. After going two for three last night, we’re excited to attack tonight’s nine-game NBA slate, hoping to sweep the board after missing on Klay Thompson’s three-point line yesterday. Without further fanfare, let’s get into it!
Live player props data coming soon for Damian Lillard.
Damian Lillard UNDER 26.5 Points
Maybe it’s just us, but this line feels far too high for Damian Lillard tonight. Lillard has been an inconsistent scorer all year, someone who’s been difficult to rely on from a betting perspective.
In one game he’ll have 28 like he did against the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday, or 38 or 43 points against the Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers, respectively, but in others, he’ll score less than 20.
Tonight’s matchup with the Atlanta Hawks could be a battle, but we expect Giannis Antetokounmpo to pick up the slack in the scoring department, leaving Lillard to score under 27 to cash this prop.

| Donovan Mitchell | Under 25.5 Points | |

Donovan Mitchell OVER 25.5 Points
27 points might be a high number for Lillard to achieve tonight, but we’re going full speed ahead with Donovan Mitchell against the Chicago Bulls, especially with Evan Mobley out due to rest. Mitchell should see a lot of work early in this game with Mobley out, against a team he’s historically done well against.
He had 36 points against them in their first meeting of the year, followed by a 37-point outing a few days later, giving us confidence in his ability to perform tonight. Some people might be out on this line considering that the Cavaliers could blow the Bulls out of the water, but we still think that he can hit 27+ points if he doesn’t play much in the fourth quarter.
| Player | Prop | Price |

| Julius Randle | Over 29.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists | |
| Julius Randle | Under 30.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists | |
Julius Randle UNDER 30.5 Points, Rebounds & Assists
Julius Randle thrived in his return to action for the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night, totaling 20 points, six rebounds, and three assists. While this performance might lead people to take the over on his PRA line tonight, we’re fading him until he puts a big game together.
Randle’s 20 points were ballooned by a 57.1% shooting night, which is far above his season average of 47.2%. He should come back down to earth in the shooting column, limiting his upside to hit the over on his PRA total.
