If you are going to be betting on the NBA, then you need to be looking at NBA prop bets today, as that’s a great chance to find value and make some real money. There are a ton of NBA odds to look at when betting on this league, but you might find the most value in player props.
There are some great games on the schedule on Wednesday night and such a large slate that you won’t have any trouble finding some good bets to make. Here are three of the best NBA prop bets today that you should be targeting.
Buddy Hield Over 18.5 Points (-125)
Buddy Hield is a player that doesn’t always get a ton of attention or accolades, but he is having a great season for the Indiana Pacers. The NBA player stats for Hield show that he is scoring right around 18 points per game this year, but he will have to step that up in this one.
The Pacers are playing without Tyrese Haliburton, and that takes away the best offensive weapon from the team. Indiana is playing a Orlando Magic team that doesn’t always do a great job on defense, and that’s another reason to look closely at the total points for Hield.
Hield is going to get a ton of shot attempts in this game, and he has proven that he can score when given the opportunity. Don’t expect Hield to go way over this point total line, but he will score somewhere in the 20s.
Take Buddy Hield over 18.5 points against the Orlando Magic.
Kyrie Irving Under 29.5 Points (-120)
The Brooklyn Nets are in Philadelphia on Wednesday night for a big game in the Eastern Conference. Brooklyn is still without Kevin Durant, and that puts them at a big disadvantage against a team like the 76ers.
Kyrie Irving is still on the team for the Nets, and he has been forced to do a ton of scoring over the last few weeks. Irving is typically up to the challenge, but he is going to be facing a solid 76ers defensive team in this game.
The 76ers are going to make other players on the Nets step up in this game, and Irving isn’t going to be able to take over this one. You can still expect Irving to do his part and keep this game close, but taking the under 29.5 points is the way to go.
Brook Lopez Over 1.5 Three-Pointers Made (-115)
You don’t always have to look at just points when looking for the best NBA prop bets today to make, and there is an interesting option in Milwaukee. The Bucks are hosting the Denver Nuggets, and this is a pretty important game on the NBA schedule.
There are a ton of big-name players set to take the floor for this matchup as well, but you can’t forget about a player like Robin Lopez. The Denver Nuggets are going to have their hands full in trying to defend Giannis Antetokounmpo in this game, and that should allow Lopez to get some clean looks.
Looking to include a bet that could end in two possessions is always a good idea when putting together NBA picks and parlays. Bet the over 1.5 three-pointers made for Lopez, as he has a big night for his squad in this game.
Stephen Curry Over 27.5 Points (-115)
One of the most anticipated NBA matchups set to take place on Wednesday night will happen in the Western Conference as the Golden State Warriors will host the Memphis Grizzlies. These two teams simply do not like each other, and all of the biggest stars will be looking to make a statement in this game.
The NBA team stats for the Warriors have been improving as the season has moved on, but they are still not where they are expected to be. Injuries have definitely hurt them throughout the year, but Stephen Curry is now back, and he will be looking for a big night in this one.
Curry is always capable of taking over a game on offense, but that is especially true when he is motivated and wanting to make a statement. Look for Curry to score at least 30 points in this one, and taking the over is the way to bet.
