NBA Prop Bets for Today: Best NBA Props

Ausar Thompson Over 7.5 Rebounds (+102)

Wizards at Pistons — 7:00 p.m. ET

With Jalen Duren sidelined by a hamstring injury, Ausar Thompson has an opportunity to contribute even more on the glass. Thompson is averaging 8.9 rebounds and 13.0 rebound chances per game across eight appearances, and he has reached at least eight boards in five of them. He also had 11 rebounds against the Lakers on Sunday.

The Detroit Pistons draw an inviting matchup against the Washington Wizards, who rank 27th in rebound percentage and 29th in rebounds allowed per game.

Duren’s absence could boost Thompson’s opportunities, although Detroit is on the second night of a back-to-back and enters as a sizable favorite.

Donovan Mitchell Over 2.5 Made Threes (-114)

Cavaliers at Hornets — 7:00 p.m. ET

The shot volume supports a look at Donovan Mitchell. He is attempting 7.5 three-pointers per game in 2026-27 and has taken at least nine attempts in four of his past six outings. Mitchell is shooting 38.7% from beyond the arc and has made four or more threes in three of his four November appearances.

His Cleveland Cavaliers face the Charlotte Hornets, who have allowed opponents to shoot 40.8% from three this season, the worst rate in the NBA. Mitchell has cleared 2.5 made threes in only four of his 10 games overall, so this is a matchup-and-volume recommendation rather than a season-long hit-rate play. Charlotte’s perimeter defense gives him a favorable chance to outperform that recent baseline.

Cedric Coward Over 6.5 Rebounds (-102)

Grizzlies at Raptors — 7:30 p.m. ET

Through eight appearances in 2026-27, Cedric Coward has collected 8.8 rebounds per game while averaging 28.5 minutes. He has grabbed at least seven boards in all eight games, including nine in each of his past three contests.

The Memphis Grizzlies visit the Toronto Raptors on Monday. Coward has already cleared this number in games with as few as 23 minutes played, an encouraging sign when assessing his path to seven rebounds.

The early-season sample is small, but Coward’s consistency and modest threshold make the over attractive.

NBA Player Prop Bets FAQ

What are NBA player prop bets?

NBA player prop bets are wagers on specific statistical outcomes for individual players during a game — independent of which team wins or loses. You might bet on how many points a star guard scores, whether a big man grabs 10 or more rebounds, or how many assists a point guard dishes out.

What types of NBA player props are available?

FanDuel offers an extensive menu of NBA props. The most common categories include:

• Points — over/under on a player's scoring total
• Rebounds — over/under on total boards (offensive + defensive)
• Assists — over/under on dimes dished
• Three-pointers made — over/under on made threes
• Points + rebounds + assists (PRA) — combined stat total for those three stats
• Double-double or triple-double — yes/no prop on achieving the milestone

How do NBA player prop odds work?

NBA props use the standard American (moneyline) odds format. A negative number indicates how much you must wager to profit $100, while a positive number shows the profit on a $100 bet.

• -115 odds — bet $115 to win $100
• +115 odds — bet $100 to win $115
• -200 odds — bet $200 to win $100

What is a points prop bet in the NBA?

A points prop is a bet on whether a specific player will score over or under a set total. For example, a line might read: LeBron James — Points — Over 24.5 (-110).

Key factors to research before betting points props include the player's recent scoring form, the opposing team's defensive rating and points allowed to their position, pace of play, and how many minutes the player is likely to play.

What is a PRA prop bet for NBA?

PRA stands for Points + Rebounds + Assists — a combined stat prop that totals all three categories into one number. For example, a Nikola Jokic PRA line might be set at 49.5.

PRA props are popular for versatile players because their contributions span multiple statistical categories. They're less volatile than single-stat props since a slow scoring night can be offset by a strong rebounding or passing game.
