The final NBA slate for 2025 is upon us as we have 9 games on New Year’s Eve to bring things to a close. Among the standout matchups are Warriors vs Hornets (1:00 pm ET), Suns vs Cavaliers (3:30 PM ET) and Knicks vs Spurs (7:00 pm ET), all of which will air live on NBA TV. I’ve picked out my best NBA player prop bets from that Knicks vs Spurs game, which is a rematch of the NBA Cup Final, and I’m targeting Karl-Anthony Towns. Let’s dive in, while you can also find out our expert NBA picks for tonight’s matchups and every game throughout the NBA season.
Best NBA player prop bet: Karl-Anthony Towns (NY) under 12.5 rebounds in Knicks vs Spurs (-120)
Odds available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Finishing the year with an under bet feels gross, but this is a good one. Karl-Anthony Towns is under in all 4 of his career games against Victor Wembanyama, and I’m expecting more of the same today. Wemby is a capable three-point shooter, which should pull KAT away from the basket at times. This number feels inflated due to his recent nice stretch at grabbing boards, but those have been in better matchups for him.
I expected this to open at 11.5 so I see some nice value here. The last 13 starting centers San Antonio have faced have not reached 13 rebounds. I believe the Spurs will shoot the ball well, leading to fewer rebound opportunities as they should be motivated going against the team that beat them in the NBA Cup final just a couple of weeks ago. All things considered, this number feels a tad high. Let’s roll and hopefully cash a winner on the final night of the year!
