Six games of the 2023-24 NBA are on the program today, meaning that you have plenty of betting options before you. If you’re into NBA player props, however, we think you should focus on the following two games – Washington Wizards vs. Boston Celtics and Charlotte Hornets vs. Milwaukee Bucks.

In this post, we’ll explain why we think those games are ideal for NBA player props, sharing our picks and analyzing the odds along the way.

Wizards vs. Celtics

How to Watch

• When: Friday, February 9, 2024, at 7:30 p.m. ET
• Where: TD Garden, Boston, Massachusetts
• Channel: NBA League Pass

Prop Pick

The Washington Wizards are conceding 123.8 points per game, which is the second-worst number in the 2023-234 NBA. Until recently, they were the very worst defense in the league, which is where they might return after tonight’s game.

The reason is that this evening, the boys from the US capital are playing against the high-scoring Boston Celtics at TD Garden. These guys are scoring 120.4 points on average, which makes them the NBA’s fifth-best offense.

Their best scorer is Jayson Tatum with a PPG of 26.9 and this time, we think he’s gonna do better than usual. We think he’s gonna go over 27.5.

Hornets vs. Bucks

How to Watch

• When: Friday, February 9, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. ET
• Where: Fiserv Forum, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
• Channel: fubo

Prop Pick

Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo had a horrible game last night, scoring just 17 points and making only three rebounds and seven assists.

But he was struggling with a hip injury in that game. Plus, it happened against the NBA’s best defense, the Minnesota Timberwolves who are allowing just 107.1 points per game.

Now, Giannis & Co. are playing against the Charlotte Hornets who are conceding 120.4 points on average, which makes them the NBA’s sixth-worst defense. Will he do better this time? We think he will, possibly scoring 10+ of each – points, rebounds, and assists.
