Best Bucks-Bulls NBA Player Prop | Grayson Allen 

Grayson Allen Prop O/U 10.5 Points 

The Milwaukee Bucks won’t have Khris Middleton on the floor tonight. Middleton’s absence should open up more usage for shooting guard Grayson Allen, especially from the perimeter. Allen has averaged only 9.7 points per game since Middleton’s return to Milwaukee’s bench in late January but is averaging 10.5 points per game on the season. Allen played the Bulls twice without Middleton and scored 13 points in each contest.

Chicago’s defensive vulnerabilities align with Allen’s strengths. The Bulls have allowed the third-most 3-pointers from above the break per game (9.7) and the fifth-most 3-pointers to shooting guards (3.4). Allen shot 2-for-4 from beyond the arc in their first meeting and 3-for-14 from beyond the arc in their second. Allen must only take a few extra shots to cash the over on his points prop.

The Bulls are playing on the wrong end of a back-to-back after falling to the Indiana Pacers last night. Ayo Dosunmu and Zach LaVine both played 40-plus minutes. The Bulls could start off sluggishly or fade down the stretch, allowing Allen to capitalize against a worn-out defense. Look for the Bulls to leave Allen open from the top of the key with some frequency as they try to limit Jrue Holiday and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The books have been somewhat quick to adjust their prices following the news about Khris Middleton, but some value remains on the Grayson Allen player prop markets. DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook have the over priced at -115, but BetMGM has the over priced at only -110. Readers yet to register at BetMGM can get first-bet insurance worth up to $1,000!
