Pick rationale

Analysis & key factors

  • We’ve got two NBA player props for you for Tuesday, January 9, 2024.
  • Will Jalen Brunson continue his brilliant run?
  • Are we going to see Luka Doncic destroy the Grizzlies tonight?

Five NBA games are on the program today, two of which we think are ideal for player prop bets. One of those is the Portland Trail Blazers vs. New York Knicks, in which we think we’ll see another brilliant performance by Jalen Brunson.

The other game good for NBA player props is the Memphis Grizzlies vs. Dallas Mavericks, in which we expect another masterclass by Luka Doncic.

How to Watch

  • When: Tuesday, January 9, 2024, at 7:30 p.m. ET
  • Where: Madison Square Garden, New York City, New York            
  • Channel: NBA League Pass

Prop Pick

The New York Knicks are having a great start to 2024. They won all of their four games this year, scoring 110+ points each time. Further, they conceded fewer points than any other team in the NBA.

Jalen Brunson was brilliant in each of those games, recording a double-double two times. We think he might do the same again this evening. There’s no doubt that he will score 10+ points – he did it every game since early November.

We also think he might record 10+ assists, especially given that his teammates have also been in a point-scoring mood. What about rebounds? We could also see him get 10 of them, but we wouldn’t bet on it. After all, he’s never gotten a double-figure number of rebounds in the New York Knicks jersey.

Jalen Brunson Double-Double

Grizzlies vs. Mavericks

How to Watch

  • When: Tuesday, January 9, 2024, at 8:30 p.m. ET
  • Where: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas   
  • Channel: NBA TV

Prop Pick

Luka Doncic started the year slowly with 19 points against the Utah Jazz. Then, he destroyed the Trail Blazers with 41 points. Dallas’ superstar then missed the following game due to an ankle injury, but when he returned, he scored 34 points against the NBA’s best defense, the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Now, his team is taking on the Memphis Grizzlies, who are conceding almost 6 points more than the Timberwolves on average. That’s why we think he’s gonna do at least as well as in his previous game.

Luka Doncic 33+ Points
