Thunder vs. Kings best NBA prop bets today
- Malik Monk OVER 2.5 3-pointers made
- Domantas Sabonis UNDER 13.5 rebounds
- Josh Giddey OVER 21.5 points, rebounds and assists
Malik Monk OVER 2.5 3-pointers made
I love this prop for Monk, as the Thunder rank 19th in the NBA this season in opponent 3-pointers made per game.
Since Nov. 24 (eight games), Monk has made at least two shots from deep in every game, and he’s shooting 49.1 percent from 3 over that stretch. He’s averaging 3.3 made 3s on 6.6 attempts per game in those eight matchups.
On the season, Monk is shooting a crazy 43.1 percent from deep. He’s been lights out, and I expect that to continue tonight.
Domantas Sabonis UNDER 13.5 rebounds
Yes, Domantas Sabonis is a beast on the glass.
But, this number is a little high for my liking.
Sabonis had exactly 13 boards in the first meeting between these teams, and he’s cleared 13.5 rebounds just eight times in 22 games. Since this prop is juiced so much to the OVER, I think it’s worth a play on the UNDER since that has hit more often.
Sabonis is averaging 12.2 rebounds per game this season.
Josh Giddey OVER 21.5 points, rebounds and assists
A buy-low spot for Josh Giddey?
The Thunder guard/wing is averaging 11.7 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game this season, but he’s found something as of late.
Giddey has 30 and 22 PRA in his last two games, clearing 21.5 PRA in four of his last eight games. This should be a fast-paced matchup between two teams that rank sixth and 11th in pace in the 2023-24 campaign.
I don’t mind taking the OVER for Giddey here.
