Pick rationale
Analysis & key factors
- We’ve got some NBA player props for you for Wednesday, January 31, 2024!
- Can Rudy Gobert stop the high-scoring Dallas Mavericks tonight?
- Will NBA’s tallest teenager Victor Wembanyama record more than 10 rebounds this evening?
Ten games of the 2023-24 NBA are on the program this evening. Two of those caught our attention for being great for NBA player props.
One of those is the Mavericks vs. Timberwolves game in which the NBA’s best defense, led by Rudy Gobert, will try to stop Luka Doncic & Co.
The other one is the Magic vs. Spurs game, in which the 7’4 French teenager Victor Wembanyama will have a hard time against the visitors from Orlando.
Mavericks vs. Timberwolves
How to Watch
- When: Wednesday, January 31, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. ET
- Where: Target Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota
- Channel: NBA League Pass
Prop Pick
Allowing just 107.4 points per game, the Minnesota Timberwolves are the best defense in the 2023-24 NBA. These guys have been in phenomenal shape since the start of 2024, conceding 102.7 points on average in their last three games.
Further, they’re great when playing at Target Center, which is where they will welcome the Dallas Mavericks this evening. The boys from Texas are scoring a lot, but we think the Timberwolves can stop them.
This, of course, is only possible if Minnesota’s best defensive player Rudy Gobert shows up tonight. This guy is averaging 12.5 rebounds per game, and we think he can do even better tonight.
| NBA Player Prop | Odds |
|---|---|
| Rudy Gobert Over 13.5 Rebounds |
Magic vs. Spurs
How to Watch
- When: Wednesday, January 31, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. ET
- Where: Frost Bank Center, San Antonio, Texas
- Channel: NBA League Pass
Prop Pick
San Antonio’s teenager Victor Wembanyama is the tallest player in the NBA. Not only that, but he also jumps very high when needed, which is why it’s no surprise the French wunderkind is averaging 10.1 rebounds per game on average.

The trouble for him is that this evening, his team is locking horns with the NBA’s highest team. The Orlando Magic’s roster has an average height of over 6’7.
Players like Paolo Banchero, Goga Bitadze, and Franz Wagner are great in the air, and we think they will stop Wemby from making more than 10 rebounds tonight.
| NBA Player Prop | Odds |
|---|---|
| Victor Wembanyama under 10.5 Rebounds |
