Best Magic-Bulls NBA Player Prop | Patrick Williams

Patrick Williams Prop O/U 1.5 3-Pointers

The Chicago Bulls haven’t trusted wing Patrick Williams with a massive role. He ranks fourth among the team’s starters in usage rate (15.2%), ahead of whoever starts at point guard, be it Ayo Dosunmu (14.8%) or Alex Caruso (10.7%). However, tonight’s matchup with the Orlando Magic should see him get a bit more run. Williams has averaged a whopping 34.6 minutes per game across two starts against Orlando.

Tonight’s matchup with the Magic should go well for Williams. Orlando struggles to defend the corner, which is where the Bulls often deploy the young wing — Williams leads the team in corner 3’s made (0.7) and attempted (1.5) per game. He racked up a pair of triples in both of his prior meetings with the Magic in no small part due to the open looks he often got from the corner.

Although Williams has gone cold lately, the Bulls don’t really have much depth behind him. Javonte Green remains out, and their second-leading corner shooter, Caruso, is questionable with a foot injury. The Bulls didn’t try to acquire more depth at the deadline, either. Williams should also benefit from playing at home. He averages 1.6 3-pointers per game and converts 47.8% of his attempts in Chicago, so this is the perfect spot for him to get things turned around.

Bettors should head to FanDuel Sportsbook for a somewhat off-market price on the over. Pinnacle, a sharp sportsbook, has the over priced down at +104. DraftKings Sportsbook has it at +105. But FanDuel is taking action on the over all the way up at +122, so bettors can head there to score some decent value. New users can get a no-sweat first bet worth up to $1,000!
