NBA Wednesday props: Big night for three-pointers

Tuesday night's bets did not cover, but the volume was certainly there, so we continue with our three-pointer approach on what is a loaded Wednesday in the NBA.

I conceivably see eight games you could target for threes.

As of this writing, no props are available in the Orlando-Oklahoma City game, but that's one to monitor.

Dallas is in a good spot for threes against Houston, but I'm a bit hesitant to project shot volume with Luka Doncic out, so I'm staying away.

That leaves us with five prop targets for Wednesday night, let's get to it.

Jordan Poole

I mentioned Jordan Poole in the article Tuesday, but went with Klay Thompson. It was Poole who had a big night, and now he gets his chance to keep it rolling with Klay sidelined.

There have been four games this season that Poole has hit the court without both of Steph Curry and Klay, and in those games, Poole is averaging 10.5 three-point attempts per game.

The last such occurrence, on Mar. 7, saw Poole launch 12 threes and make eight of them.

With so much volume up for grabs and Poole already shooting so much, I expect a steady dose of shots Wednesday night.

The Warriors draw the Heat Wednesday, who are allowing the eighth-most threes per game this season.

Give me some Poole in this one.

Betting options:

• 5+ threes (+104 FanDuel)

Evan Fournier

I know, what a frustrating performance Tuesday night from Evan Fournier, who seemingly did not see the court in the fourth quarter.

Very strange usage, but listen, the guy still went 3-of-9 from deep.

I have to give this volume another go, Fournier is averaging 9.4 three-point attempts per game in his last five.

Wednesday, it's the Charlotte Hornets, who give up the second-most threes per game in the NBA. 

Fournier has cashed for us before and deserves a chance to bounce-back from Tuesday. I'm not going to ladder him Wednesday, fine to settle for the hit on four-plus. If you want to go for five, those odds are +220 on FanDuel.

Betting options:

• 4+ threes (-106 FD)

Saddiq Bey

I've already mentioned Saddiq Bey on Twitter, so go check out the page for more in-depth analysis.

I will just reiterate here that Bey is shooting 9.4 attempts per game in his last five from long-range, with two games exceeding 13 attempts from three.

Atlanta allows the ninth-most threes per game and has struggled slowing down forwards this season.

Betting options: 

• 3+ threes (-154 FD)
• 4+ threes (+180 FD)
• 5+ threes (+460 FD)

Devin Booker

Booker gets a Minnesota Timberwolves defense allowing the fifth-most threes per game this season, so he's worth your consideration Wednesday night.

One note on Booker is a recent blip in his threes attempted, shooting just eight times total in his past two games.

Considering how far we are into the season, I'm okay with viewing this as an aberration bound to regress back to his mean.

In the seven games prior to these last two, Booker was averaging 8.7 attempts from deep per game.

On the season, he's averaging over seven attempts per game from long-range, so he still feels like the best option on the Suns Wednesday.

Betting options:

• 4+ threes (+142 FD)

Keldon Johnson

We're going back to another familiar name who feels due for a massive uptick in threes made soon.

Johnson is averaging 8.6 three-point attempts per game in his last five games and has finished with eight-plus attempts six of the last eight games.

Despite the 17 attempts in the past two games, Johnson has made only four threes.

Wednesday feels like a great opportunity to get right, as the Spurs face off against the Blazers.

Portland allows the third-most threes per game and has let opponents shoot the highest percentage from deep this season, 36.9%.

Love the volume, this is a complete ladder spot for me.

Betting options:

• 3+ threes (-132 FD)
• 4+ threes (+205 FD)
• 5+ threes (+500 FD)

A reminder on how I approach these spots is probably necessary. I have been betting 0.5 units on everything I list above, even for the players I have just one betting option for.

Best of luck Wednesday night!
