Check out the best NBA player prop bets for Thursday, November 6th, available with bonuses on FanDuel Sportsbook.
Devin Booker went under his assist prop during his first game against the Clippers this season, recording 7 assists on a potential 13. The Suns lost by 27 points in that game, which limited Booker's playing time to 26 minutes. Despite this, he nearly reached the prop number despite the tough circumstances.
"The Clippers have been a great matchup for point guard assist props this year, allowing the fourth-most assists to point guards specifically and the fifth-most assists overall."
Excluding Booker's missed prop, all five other point guards who faced the Clippers have surpassed their assist props. This is logical given the Clippers' bottom-nine defense against spot-ups and off-screen plays, both of which tend to result in assists.
Booker missed this prop in his first three games, but has exceeded it in three of his last five games, posting 10, 9, and 13 assists. Tonight, he aims for at least 8 assists.
With James Harden and Kawhi Leonard out, someone must step up for the Clippers. The likely candidate is John Collins.
While Collins has not yet hit this prop in any game this season, the absence of two key Clippers players creates a different dynamic tonight, presenting an opportunity for him.
"This play is not without risks, as Collins has yet to hit this prop in any game this season, but it is an entirely different situation without two of the Clippers highest usage players not playing tonight."Would you prefer a more detailed breakdown by player or team in the HTML?
