Best Raptors-Kings Player Prop: Can Kevin Huerter Bounce Back?

The Toronto Raptors will head west to California for a matchup against the Sacramento Kings. The Kings are coming off a monster 133-point performance against the Memphis Grizzlies in which they shot a combined 12-for-13 from the perimeter in the first quarter. Bettors looking to score some value on one of Wednesday’s night games should tail this Raptors-Kings NBA player prop at Caesars — the book has left too much value on the Kevin Huerter player prop markets.

Best Raptors-Kings NBA Player Prop | Kevin Huerter

Kevin Huerter Prop O/U 2.5 3-Pointers

Although the Kings shot excellently from the perimeter against the Grizzlies on Monday, Kevin Huerter did not. He went an abysmal 1-for-3 in just 21 minutes of action as Trey Lyles, Harrison Barnes and Keegan Murray went a jaw-dropping 17-for-24 — accounting for 77% of Sacramento’s made 3s on just 60% of the attempts. Huerter has now failed to record at least three made 3s in his last three games.

But NBA betting is a game of averages, and Huerter is averaging 2.8 3-pointers per game this year. That number jumps up to 3 at home. He has gone over this number in 25 of his 43 appearances, good for a raw hit rate of 58.1%. Further, the Toronto Raptors have allowed the fifth-most 3-pointers to small forwards per game (3.1) and the ninth-most to shooting guards (3.3). They have also allowed the most corner 3s per game (4.3).

Huerter’s strengths align with Toronto’s defensive weaknesses. He spends 98% of his minutes at shooting guard or small forward, and although most of his shots come from above the break, he takes one corner 3 per game. Huerter lit up the Raptors last season, too. He averaged 3.8 made 3s per game across four meetings with Toronto in his final year with the Atlanta Hawks.

The odds for Huerter’s 3-point props vary wildly from sportsbook to sportsbook. Pinnacle, a sharp sportsbook, has the juice for the over set to -120. FanDuel Sportsbook lists it at -108. Oddly, Caesars Sportsbook has this line all the way up at +106. Bettors should head there for the best deal — and to take advantage of first-bet insurance of up to $1,250!
