NBA Props: Tuesday November 21

Yesterday was one of those frustrating days. We posted a 1-3 record so we gave some back to the bad guys, and the frustrating part was the two garbage time points from Jalen Brunson that cost us on Anthony Edwards being the leading scorer in the Timberwolves game prop. That is the business (and we slipped below 100 units for the season...which also hurts).

We have a lighter card tonight with just five games, though I guess that is actually a lot for a Tuesday. 

Results to Date: 26-35, +80.5 Units  (finally, the century mark) 

NBA Props for Tuesday, November 21

Scottie Barnes More Rebounds than Paulo Banchero +100

Banchero is the bigger player, but Barnes has proven to be a strong rebounder for his size. This season he is averaging two rebounds more per game than last year's Rookie of the Year, which is why the pricing for this one feels off to me. Banchero has four games against Toronto under his belt, with a high of 12 rebounds in one, plus totals of 6, 3 and 1. This feels like a pricing error to jump on. 

Darius Garland 25+ Points (+130) Alt line

Garland missed a couple of early games so he has had a slow start to the season. His last two games were his two highest scoring of the year to date with 26 and 28 points. In both top scorer Donovan Mitchell was out, as he is again tonight so the Cavaliers need his scoring that much more to be competitive against Philadelphia. 

Tyrese Haliburton Over 24.5 Points (+105)

This is just a smidge below his season average. I am looking for a very fast-paced game tonight against Atlanta and Haliburton will enjoy being guarded by Trae Young at times. I also like the way he bounces back from subpar performances. The last two times he was held under 20 points he responded with 43 points and 29 points respectively (he only scored 12 points in the Pacers' last game)

Dejounte Murray Over 4.5 Rebounds (+105)

Dipping back into Hawks vs. Pacers here where the pace of play is going to help push a lot of overs. This one caught my eye because again we are getting a nice payoff for a pretty average performance. Murray had just one rebound in his last game but five in each of the three games before that. The last time he had a one rebound game he had seven the next time out.
