12 games on this NBA slate. I’m in heaven. Let’s dive into our top NBA player prop bets for the games on Saturday, December 2. Be sure to also read our NBA predictions for each of today’s matchups.

Paul George (LAC) Over 10.5 rebounds + assists (-108)

Line available at FanDuel at time of publishing.

If you have followed my picks over on X at JutPicks, this player prop has been a favorite of mine. But the books have adjusted. They have moved this prop to 10.5 — a number I’m still comfortable taking for a unit with the Clippers facing the Warriors to start off the slate.

Paul George’s rebounds + assists numbers with James Harden in the lineup have skyrocketed. George’s rebounds jump from 4.8 to 6.2, while his assist numbers surprisingly see a bump, as well. He has surpassed his line in 7 of 13 games with Harden, including Thursday night against the same Warriors squad. In that game George reeled in just one rebound on 9 chances but dished out 10 assists on 15 opportunities. The assignment of Stephen Curry is tough and will pull him away from the basket, but I’m trusting George to stuff the stat sheet again.

Brook Lopez (MIL) Over 1.5 3-pointers (-132)

Line available at FanDuel at time of publishing.

I love diving into home and away splits once we get the correct data and, of course, enough games played. Brook Lopez has done enough for me at home to make this a play. In 9 games this season he has made at least 2 triples 7 times while shooting 42%. On the road it is a different story. Thankfully for us, the Bucks are at home tonight against the Hawks.

Not only is Lopez coming off a game in which he forked up 10 3-point attempts, but he also made a season-high 6. Now Lopez will get the Clint Capela treatment for which he lives. In the last 5 games against Capela, Lopez has made multiple threes in 3 — including earlier this season. In a game with a total of 252.5 points, give me all the 3-point props!
