Wednesday’s NBA player prop bet predictions
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 4:15 p.m. ET.
Charlotte Hornets PG LaMelo Ball OVER 17.5 points (-115)
This is Ball’s sixth game in the starting lineup and it has made a massive difference thus far in Charlotte’s offensive production.
Over the past five games, the Hornets are averaging 119.8 points per game to rank sixth in the NBA and Ball is putting up 22.6 points on 51.4% 3-point shooting, with 6.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game.
Not only is Ball in rhythm, but he vs. Morant is a fascinating point guard duel that showcases the future of the position and should be an entertaining one-on-one battle.
Memphis’ defense plummets in efficiency when Morant is on the floor (according to CleaningTheGlass.com) and all of the Grizzlies’ injuries have contributed to their 26th-ranked defensive rating over the last five games.
Keep in mind Ball has been on fire from deep lately and Memphis is 27th in 3-point defense.

New Orleans Pelicans PF Zion Williamson OVER 22.5 points (-120)
The Pelicans are in the Windy City Wednesday to play the Chicago Bulls and Williamson will be a bull in a china shop so to speak in this game.
Chicago is allowing the third-most points per game and free-throw attempts to opposing power forwards in the league while Williamson is averaging 23.5 points per game with the seventh-highest field-goal percentage and sixth-most free-throw attempts per game.
Injuries could play a big role in Chicago’s weak interior defense as the Bulls are missing both frontcourt starters. Either way, Zion has gone Over this number in 11 of 22 starts this season and has shot below 50% in only five games.

Atlanta Hawks PF John Collins OVER 26.5 points & rebounds (-115)
The point guard matchup in Hawks-Mavericks might be the draw but I’m more interested in the battle of the bigs. Collins has tallied at least 37 combined points and rebounds in each of his four career starts against the Mavericks. He has scored 35 points in each of the last two games against the Mavs on better than 74.4% shooting.
One of those games was last week and there’s no reason Collins’ ownership of the interior can’t continue vs. a Dallas team 29th in opponent’s field goal percentage at the rim (according to CleaningTheGlass.com) and 27th in rebounding percentage.

NBA Picks
The NBA is considered by many to be the best league for sports betting. Yes, the NFL is king in terms of popularity and wagering volume per game but nothing beats NBA basketball over the course of a season. Why? There are many opportunities to make NBA picks every night. NBA lines move more often and are not as sharp as football lines which are under the microscope all week. NBA odds have a much shorter lifespan meaning there are greater opportunities to find value. That gives Doc's basketball handicappers exponentially more opportunities to offer daily free NBA picks and be even more selective when offering expert NBA picks.
Free NBA Picks and Expert Predictions
You can find Free NBA picks throughout the Doc's Sports network including this free NBA predictions page; on our Doc's NBA Experts page; and on the Youtube channels of our expert NBA handicappers. We now also have a very popular NBA video section that is updated daily with several videos during the NBA season. Check the video link on the top navigation.

Nba Player Prop Picks
Doc's offers expert NBA picks today and every day of the NBA season! Sure, there are the days when the NBA card consists of only tanking teams competing for the right to draft the next Zion Williamson. These teams are bad and their competition for an audience is Seinfeld reruns or maybe getting an extra hour of sleep. At Doc's we don't see this as trash basketball, we see this as a huge opportunity to make money...on trash basketball. Each day during the basketball season is an opportunity to make valuable and profitable predictions
NBA Picks Against the Spread
Nba Prop Bets Picks Nfl Week 11
Most NBA bettors are going to make NBA picks against the spread. This is also known as NBA picks ATS. Sportsbooks give each NBA team a handicap of X amount of points. That means if books think the Lakers are 4 points better than the Celtics they will offer a line of Lakers -4. If a Doc's handicapper has reason to believe the Lakers are much more than 4 points better, his pick against the spread would be to take the Lakers -4. This is how all bets on the spread work unless bookmakers consider both teams to be evenly matched, in which case the line is a pick, AKA pick'em. At Doc's the majority of our NBA selections are against the spread. However, there can be outstanding value on betting NBA totals.
NBA Over/Under Picks
The pace of the game, as well as which team dictates the pace, is a key factor when handicapping basketball games. When pace is an especially strong signal, it may dictate a pick on the over/under. An NBA over/under pick is another way of referring to a prediction on an NBA game point total. NBA total lines are usually well above 200 in today's NBA making them harder for the betting public to find value. For example, the 2004 Detroit Pistons team was very consistently within 5 points of the 90 they averaged. In today's NBA, greater scoring means greater variance. However, professional basketball handicappers can use this to their advantage as the sportsbooks also try to keep track of the higher scoring NBA totals. Doc's sports NBA total picks are some of the best in the business and our total prediction write-ups are insightful. Along with offering our NBA expert picks, we provide free selections that are intended to help bettors with their handicapping legwork.
NBA Parlay Picks
Parlay picks are sucker bets they say! Never bet and NBA parlay they say! Bettors that speak in these absolutes clearly haven't learned how to find value betting basketball. Sure, the payout on parlays at most sportsbooks have gone down to the point where putting two of your picks together for the sake of winning more is not a good investment. But what if your parlay picks could be made on the same game? That is called a correlated NBA parlay. Many sportsbooks offer the ability to make NBA bets against the spread and total in the same game. So if you have a great read on a game and expect one team to quit and fall behind, you may decide to make an NBA parlay prediction. At Doc's our experts will offer a free parlay pick in rare cases. It is not common because we need to find value for our customers on both lines before they move. If our parlay prediction is indeed on the same game, we need to confirm there is value regardless of the fact that you can't line shop the odds on a parlay. Both bets in a parlay must be made at the same sportsbook. If there is a free selection on the total over of -14 and under 200 it was offered knowing that those lines can be found at most Las Vegas sportsbooks and online.
NBA Playoff Predictions
Once the regular season is over the NBA tends to resemble the national football league in many ways. Bettors have much more time to make their NBA playoff picks as teams travel to each other's arenas and rest between series. Making successful NBA playoff predictions is as much about when you bet as it is who you bet on. A series might not start for days. That means an NBA spread may move quite a few points especially as the public bets closer to the action. If we see value in a playoff prediction it will rely heavily on getting the line we are quoting in said NBA pick. In the words of the great Tony George, 'We are betting numbers, not teams!' That may not be more relevant than when making picks on the NBA playoff games.
