NBA Prop Picks: Best NBA Player Props for Thursday, November 6
Here are the top NBA prop bets for Thursday, November 6, with odds available on FanDuel Sportsbook.
Devin Booker’s Assist Prop
Devin Booker went under his assist prop in his first matchup against the Clippers this season, finishing with seven assists on 13 potential opportunities. The Suns were blown out by 27 points, which limited his playing time to 26 minutes.
Despite that, Booker still came close to the line. The Clippers have been a favorable matchup for point guard assist props this year, allowing the fourth-most assists to players at that position and ranking fifth overall in assists allowed.
Excluding Booker’s miss, five other point guards who faced the Clippers have all surpassed their assist lines. This aligns with the Clippers’ weaknesses defending spot-up and off-screen actions, both of which heavily depend on assisted plays.
Booker struggled to start the season, missing this prop in his first three games, but he has hit it in three of his last five, tallying 10, 9, and 13 assists. The projection for tonight points him to reach eight assists.
John Collins’ Opportunity
With James Harden and Kawhi Leonard sidelined, the Clippers will need other players to step up. John Collins appears to be the most likely candidate to take on a larger offensive role.
“This play carries some risk, as Collins has not hit this prop in any game this season—but the absence of two high-usage players creates a completely different environment.”
Given the situation, Collins’ increased usage could lead to his first successful outing for this prop line.
Summary
Devin Booker’s assist projection looks favorable against a weak Clippers defense, while John Collins may benefit from expanded opportunity in the absence of key stars.
Author’s summary: Booker’s passing success and the Clippers’ lineup gaps set up intriguing prop bets for Thursday’s NBA slate.
