NBA Tuesday’s 6-game slate is headlined by a double-header on NBC. The Knicks and Celtics will battle it out in Boston, with the Thunder and Warriors to follow at 11:00 pm ET.
Let’s dive into our best NBA player prop bets for Tuesday, December 2, while you can also find out our expert NBA picks for every game throughout the NBA season.
Best NBA player prop bet: Luke Kornet (SAS) Under 17.5 points + rebounds + assists (-122)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing.Â
Luke Kornet will battle it out against Zach Edey underneath, and Edey is coming off a career-best 32 points and 17 rebounds in his last outing. Kornet and Edey faced off in Edey’s second game of the season, with Edey winning the matchup. Kornet was held scoreless, reeled in 4 rebounds and dished out 3 assists in 25 minutes — the same minutes that Edey posted. Even with Victor Wembanyama still sidelined as well as Stephon Castle, it’s a spot I want to fade Kornet and his PRA line of 17.5.
Best NBA player prop bet: Neemias Queta (BOS) Over 19.5 points + rebounds + assists (-115)
Odds available at Bet365 at time of publishing.Â
Knicks vs Celtics looks to be the best game of the slate, as the Celtics are 1-point home favorites. For what it’s worth, Queta is listed as probable for tonight. He sat out Sunday’s game largely for load management, so he should be a full go and in the ballpark of 25 minutes. Queta is coming off a massive game of 19 points and 18 rebounds in his last outing, both career-highs. He is one of the few bright spots for a Boston squad that is 11-9 and looks to be a future part of a championship team for the next 5+ years when Jayson Tatum returns.
Bet365 and BetMGM are beating the rest of the market by 20+ cents. DraftKings will likely have this prop close at 20.5, while FanDuel has Queta’s points + rebounds line set at 19.5 — the same number we’re getting with the addition of assists.
