By · Updated 1 year ago
  • We’ve got two NBA player props for you for Wednesday, January 17, 2024!
  • We predict Andrew Wiggins will (finally) improve his form.
  • Our player prop pick is that Mikal Bridges will score more than Jerami Grant tonight.

We went 2-for-3 with our NBA player props last night, but today, we’re confident we can have a 100% hit rate. Ten games are on the program on Wednesday, January 17, 2024, with two of those looking ideal for player-focused prop bets. We’re now going to dissect those games, sharing our top picks along the way.


Warriors vs. Jazz

How to Watch

  • When: Wednesday, January 17, 2024, at 9:00 p.m. ET
  • Where: Delta Center, Salt Lake City, Utah              
  • Channel: NBA League Pass

Prop Pick

The Golden State Warriors aren’t doing great, with seven losses in their last 10 games. The main reason for this is that these guys haven’t been scoring much. Steph Curry has only started improving his performance, while his teammates are still struggling.

Andrew Wiggins, for example, hasn’t scored more than 20 points since Christmas Day and has scored under 10 in four of his last six games. He just needs to do better if he wants his team to stand a chance against the in-form Utah Jazz.

Wiggins’s points margin is set at 12.5, and we think he just has to go over.

Andrew Wiggins Over 12.5 Points

Nets vs. Trail Blazers

How to Watch

  • When: Wednesday, January 17, 2024, at 10:00 p.m. ET
  • Where: Moda Center at the Rose Quarter, Portland, Oregon         
  • Channel: NBA League Pass

Prop Pick

The final game of the day brings us a duel between two struggling teams that are desperate to get back on the winning track. Neither team can be proud of its scoring performances, which is the reason why each team lost eight of its last 10 games.

The points leaders from each team need to up their game – Mikal Bridges (Nets) and Jerami Grant (Trail Blazers). We expect both players to do alright, but who’s gonna score more?

It’s got to be Bridges. Not only is his PPG superior to the one of Grant, but Portland’s power forward is reportedly struggling with an illness.
