Today’s Top NBA Player Props | Jan. 9
Russell Westbrook Prop O/U 6.5 Rebounds
Stokastic’s NBA Bet Pro model is all over Russell Westbrook‘s props tonight. The model is especially keen on his rebounding production. Westbrook has averaged 6.4 rebounds per game this year. He has stayed under this number in five of his last nine appearances, including a five-rebound performance on Saturday.
NBA Bet Pro has Westbrook recording 5.9 assists against the Denver Nuggets tonight. That gives this bet an expected win percentage of 52%, which is better than Unibet’s implied odds of 47.2%. This bet is one of only NBA player props with EV of 8% or greater on tonight’s card. Want to know the other four? Sign up for a one-week free trial of NBA Bet Pro.

Delon Wright Prop O/U 1.5 Steals
The Washington Wizards haven’t had Delon Wright for long this season, but he has averaged 17.2 minutes per game since his return in late December. He has averaged a whopping 1.9 steals per game in a limited role and will now see his role increase with Bradley Beal sidelined. Wright has stolen the ball at least twice in four of his last seven games.
According to NBA Bet Pro, Wright should nab 1.7 steals tonight — a bit less than his season average, but a sufficient number to cash this prop. It helps that the Pelicans have allowed their opponents to rack up 7.5 steals per game. This bet has an expected win rate of 42%, much better than the 39.2% chance implied by the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook. Users yet to register there can even score $200 in bonus bets after the placement of a $5 moneyline wager!
Best NBA Player Prop: Delon Wright Over 1.5 Steals (+155) at DraftKings
Jamal Murray Prop O/U 1.5 3-Pointers
Jamal Murray will face the Los Angeles Lakers for the fourth time this season tonight. Murray has attempted a whopping 6.3 3-pointers per game when facing the Lakers, well above his season average of 5.4. Murray has averaged exactly 2 3-pointers per game on the year and against the Lakers as well.
NBA Bet Pro has Murray getting 2.4 3-pointers — that’s in line with the amount of perimeter shots he has attempted against the Lakers this year. However, books like FanDuel still have Murray’s prop total set to 1.5. This bet has an expected win rate of 61%, better than its implied odds of 58.7%. Users who are new to FanDuel can even get a no-sweat first bet up to $1,000 for any NBA game!
