Hope you had a beautiful Thanksgiving, full of family and good food. It’s back to regular programming and we’ve got a slate full of NBA Cup Games. Let’s jump right into my favorite props tonight.
For additional information on picks, props, money lines and more on today’s slate, take a look at our NBA Picks Page or our NBA Odds Page, here.
Ryan Rollins o28.5 PRA (-110) | BetOnline
Ryan Rollins has been fantastic in his second full year with the Milwaukee Bucks. He’ averaging 18.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game; all career highs. Rollins is also starting for the first time in his career and playing a career high 32.1 minutes per game.
Rollins is shooting 48.9% from the field and 40.4% from the beyond the arc. Most of his biggest games have come without Gianni in the lineup but Rollins continues to carve out a big role on this Milwaukee team. He’s seeing a career high 25% usage and looks like he could fill the role of #2 scoring option for this Bucks offense.
The Knicks rank 20th in opponent effective field goal percentage this year and have been abysmal on the perimeter. The team ranks 26th in opponent 3-point percentage allowed and 28th in opponent 3s. Rollins is averaging just under 7 3-point attempts per game and has recorded 29 and 31 points/rebounds/assists in his L2 games against New York.
The Bucks are in need of a win tonight to stay alive in tournament play and I’m guessing we see that energy on the court. Look for Rollins to have a big impact in tonight’s NBA Cup Game.
Kawhi Leonard o21.5 Points (+100) | BetOnline
Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers come into tonight’s matchup off an ugly loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Clippers lost by 17 points and looked like the clear little brother in the City of Angels. Leonard had just 19 points, shot 43% from the field and played just 27.6 minutes.
Since his return, the Clippers have gone 0-2 and lost both games by 15 or more points. Leonard’s seen a 32.8% usage rate in the two games since his return and the Clippers are desperate for a win. The Grizzlies rank 24th in opponent effective field goal percentage and 18th in points allowed.
Kawhi and the Clippers are in need of a tune up game and tonight they enter this game as a 6.5-point favorite. The total’s set at 224 and the Clippers are still very much alive in this year’s tournament. Los Angeles not only needs a win tonight, but they’ll need to win by a significant margin.
Coby White o22.5 Points (+100) | BetOnline
Coby White is back in his home state of North Carolina, just a few short hours from his hometown of Goldsboro, North Carolina. White’s played here eight times as a starter, averaging 24.1 points per game and shooting 48,4% from the field and 37% from beyond the arc. Three of these games came without Zach Lavine in the lineup; he scored 37, 23 and 35 in those three games.
Charlotte ranks 29th in opponent effective field goal percentage and dead last in opponent 3-point percentage. They’re giving up 120.9 points per game and the Bulls are playing at top three pace in the NBA. White’s coming off his most minutes played this year, playing 35 minutes in a loss to the Pelicans. He scored 24 points, shot 47% and just barely covered this line.
White’s cleared this line in four of his five games so far this year and tonight he gets another chance to put on a show for his home state. He’s shooting just 43.5% from the field this year but that’s expected with him returning from injury. White’s now got his feet back underneath him and it looks like the minutes restrictions have been lifted.
I’m expecting fireworks from the former Tarheel in Charlotte tonight.
