2023-24 NBA Player Props, Breakdown, Odds, and Picks (Dec 12)

By · Updated 1 year ago
  • We’ve got two interesting NBA player props for you for Tuesday, December 12.
  • Can Anthony Davis and the Lakers stop Luka Doncic from scoring 35 or more points?
  • Will Steph Curry continue his three-pointer brilliance tonight?  

There are some big NBA games on the program today, most notably, the two that are televised by TNT – Los Angeles Lakers vs. Dallas Mavericks and Golden State Warriors vs. Phoenix Suns.

In the first of those, we’re going to see a battle between one of the best defensive players in the league (Anthony Davis) and one of the most prolific scorers (Luka Doncic).

In the other one, the NBA’s three-pointer leader (Steph Curry) seems ready to run riot on the Suns who are without the league’s third top scorer (Kevin Durant) in tonight’s game.

Game Preview

Last evening, Luka Doncic scored 35 points for the Mavericks, which was his seventh straight game in which he went over 30. However, in most of those games, he played against teams that aren’t as great defensively as his team’s next opponent.

In fact, only one of those had a better defense than the Lakers – the Houston Rockets – and he scored 41 points against them.

Doncic also did very well against the Lakers a couple of weeks ago, scoring 30 points. We think he might get there, but the points margin is set at 34.5 at BetUS, which we don’t think he’s going to cover.

Luka Doncic Under 34.5 Points

Game Preview

Kevin Durant is out with an ankle injury, which could mean trouble for the Suns. Not only is he their best player, but he’s also third in the league when it comes to points average.

This can be a huge problem for his teammates given that they’re taking on the Warriors whose Steph Curry is the league’s best player in terms of three-point field goals. This guy is averaging over five three-pointers a game and we think he’s going to keep doing it.

NBA Player PropOdds
Steph Curry 4+ three-point field goals
