NBA Player Props for Thursday, February 20
- Evan Mobley Over 9.5 Rebounds (-120)
- Russell Westbrook Over 4.5 Rebounds (-130)
- Bradley Beal Over 20.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-120)
Evan Mobley Over 9.5 Rebounds (-120)
Cavaliers vs Nets, 7:30 p.m. ET
Evan Mobley has been playing great basketball recently and has been a beast on the boards since the beginning of the year.
He's averaging close to 10 boards per game since the beginning of January and has hit the over at this number in 11 out of 17 games in that span.
The blowout is a bit of a worry with a 13-point spread, but Brooklyn is bottom-5 in rebounding rate this season, so I'm still rolling with the over here.
Pick: Evan Mobley Over 9.5 Rebounds (-120)
Russell Westbrook Over 4.5 Rebounds (-130)
Hornets vs Nuggets, 9:00 p.m. ET
Russell Westbrook hasn't played a game this month, but he should be a full go and get around 30 minutes in this spot.
Westbrook averaged 6.2 boards per game in January playing 30 minutes a game and the Hornets are a below average rebounding team.
The Nuggets have a big total in this spot and Westbrook is far too involved to have a line this low.
I don't hate the alternate lines in this spot either all the way up to 10.
Pick: Russell Westbrook Over 4.5 Rebounds (-130)
Bradley Beal Over 20.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-120)
Suns vs Spurs, 9:30 p.m. ET
Bradley Beal has obviously struggled this season, but since coming off the bench he's been playing some good basketball and was playing good basketball prior to missing some games before the All Star break.
He's hit the over at this number in points alone in 3 of the last 4 games, and has hit the over at this number in 5 of the last 7 games.
He gets a great matchup vs. the Spurs tonight, in what should be a fast high scoring game with a 238 total and a 2-point spread.
I have Beal projected for 2.5 PRA over this number making this a great EV bet.
Pick: Bradley Beal Over 20.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-120)
