NBA Friday featured plenty of drama — just in time with the playoffs around the corner. Saturday presents bettors with a 5-game slate, with the first tip at 1:00 pm ET in Charlotte. Let’s dive into our best NBA player prop bets for Saturday, February 28, while you can also find out our expert NBA picks for tonight’s matchups and every game throughout the season. 

Best NBA player prop bet: Reed Sheppard (HOU) Under 15.5 points (-120)

Odds available at BetMGM Sportsbook at time of publishing.

BetMGM continues to offer soft lines on NBA player props, which we will take full advantage of. Reed Sheppard was unconscious from 3-point range in their come-from-behind win in Orlando. He shot 5 of 7 from deep, finishing with 20 points. However, with a somewhat healthy starting lineup other than Jabari Smith Jr., Reed sees a significant decrease in his usage rate. Play this down to under 14.5 points over at DraftKings at -112, while FanDuel is priced at -122.

NBA player prop bet: John Konchar (UTAH) Under 8.5 points + assists (-115)

Odds available at Caesars Sportsbook at time of publishing.

The Utah Jazz are looking forward to the lottery balls potentially giving them a top-3 pick and hopefully bringing BYU prospect A.J. Dybantsa home. In the meantime, the Jazz are filling a starting lineup with John Konchar, Cody Williams and Kyle Filipowski — Konchar being our top fade of the 5-game slate. Ace Bailey and Isaiah Collier, if he gets the start from Keyonte George, are the most intriguing pieces for the Jazz tonight. Konchar doesn’t offer much upside.
