  • We’ve got two interesting NBA player props for you for Monday, January 29, 2024.
  • Who will score more tonight, Nikola Jokic or Giannis Antetokounmpo?
  • Are we going to see Paul Reed pick up where he left off?

Twelve games of the 2023-24 NBA are on the program on Monday, January 29, 2024. They’re all great from a bettor’s perspective, but two really stand out for NBA player props. We’re now going to present you with those games, explaining along the way which props we’re planning to bet on and why.


Bucks vs. Nuggets

How to Watch

  • When: Monday, January 29, 2024, at 9:00 p.m. ET
  • Where: Ball Arena, Denver, Colorado      
  • Channel: NBA League Pass

Prop Pick

The Milwaukee Bucks are the NBA’s highest-scoring team, with Giannis Antetokounmpo rocking a PPG of 31.0. Over in Denver, Nikola Jokic is the Nuggets’ points leader with a PPG of 26.3. However, this guy has been great in big matches.

In the previous duel with the Bucks, for example, he scored 31 points. That’s the same number of points as Antetokounmpo. Will it be different this time?

One of the main advantages of Nikola Jokic is that tonight’s game is played in front of his crowd in Denver. He’s also in decent form, scoring 30+ in four of his last five games. But the same is the case with the Greek Freak.

The main reason why we think Jokic will score more than Antetokounmpo, however, is that Milwaukee’s superstar is reportedly struggling with a back injury. It’s nothing scary and he’ll play in Denver. However, we suspect that the injury is going to have a negative impact on his performance.

Prop Pick

Philadelphia’s center Joel Embiid is the NBA’s points leader, but he’s out with an injury. In his absence, some of his teammates will have to step up to help the 76ers beat the Trail Blazers. So, who will it be?

Our pick is Paul Reed, the man who scored 30 points in Philly’s last game while playing in Embiid’s position. The performance has certainly given him a huge confidence boost, which is why we expect another big performance from the guy.

Sure, he may not score 30 again, but we can see him going over
