It’s a busy night in the NBA Friday night with 14 games giving us plenty of player props to bet on. Of those matchups, 10 games have lines of 5 or fewer and 9 games have a total of 225 points or more. My season record is 8-7 (+0.98 units). Here are my picks for tonight.
Lock in our NBA picks on the side and total for each of tonight’s games
Anthony Davis over 37.5 points+rebounds (-110 on DraftKings)
Davis is on a tear over the last few games with LeBron James out due to injury. The Lakers center has gone over this total in the last 5 games with 38, 56, 54, 48 and 58. He has at least 30 points and 16 rebounds in 4 straight games and is averaging 33.2 points and 17.4 rebounds in the last 5 games. It’s the same matchup as last Sunday, when Davis had 30 points and 18 rebounds against the Spurs. The Lakers are 1st in pace and the Spurs are 8th, while the Spurs are last in defensive efficiency. Davis should have no problem going over this line.

Anfernee Simons over 32.5 points+rebounds+assists (-115 on DraftKings)
Simons gets increased usage with Damian Lillard out. Simons struggled in his last game in a tough matchup with the Cavaliers and had 20 points, 6 assists and 2 rebounds. The matchup is easier against the Knicks, who struggle to defend guards. The Knicks are 10th in pace and 20th in defensive efficiency. In 5 games without Lillard this season, Simons has gone over 4 times and taken 18 and 23 shots from the field in the last 2 games without Lillard.

He has scored at least 30 points in 10 of the last 13 games and has at least 6 assists in 6 straight games. The Thunder guard has gone over this total in 5 of the last 6 games and 7 of the last 9. The Thunder are 3rd in pace and the Bulls are 9th and the game total is 233.5 points.
