We cashed both player prop bets with ease last night to move our record to 30-22 on the season. With a surplus of injures and a measly slate, I’ve come up with just one player prop bet for the action on Sunday, February 4, but in addition to that make sure you read our NBA predictions for the biggest games on the docket.
Immanuel Quickley, PG, TOR, Under 27.5 Pts/Rebs/Asts (-110)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
I like Toronto’s moves at the deadline to acquire Immanuel Quickley and R.J. Barrett. It hasn’t resulted in wins, as the Raptors are 5-9 during that span, but it’s a move that should pay off in the future. Speaking of Quickley, he centers around our top player prop bet for the day against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Barrett’s status for Sunday is still in the air, as he’s missed the last three games. We’ll get solid CLV on this prop if Barrett can end up suiting up. Nonetheless, I like fading Quickley in this spot against the Oklahoma City Thunder’s elite defense that ranks in the top 5 in basketball.
Quickley may get the Cason Wallace treatment, as he’ll be inserted in the starting lineup for Jalen Williams. Wallace is capable of making life extremely difficult for Quickley, who is playing his second game since returning from injury. Apart from injury, the Raptors come in as 8.5-point underdogs, with this being the first leg of a back-to-back, having to travel to New Orleans to take on the Pelicans tomorrow night. I’m trusting the Thunder defense to hold Quickley from scoring at will and going bizerk from a passing standpoint.
