We’re treated to more NBA Cup games tonight and tomorrow night, starting with a 5-game slate on Tuesday. I’m riding an 8-2 streak in my last 10 plays, with most of them being in NBA Cup games, so let’s see if I can improve that further today! Let’s dive into our best NBA player prop bets, while you can also find out our NBA picks for today and throughout the entire season.
Malcolm Brogdon (WSH) Over 8.5 rebounds+assists (-113)
Odds available at Caesars Sportsbook at time of publishing
It’s no secret that Malcolm Brogdon will be suiting up for a different team other than the Wizards by the deadline. A contender will want to get their hands on a veteran backup point guard come playoff time. In the meantime, the Wizards need to boost his trade value, which they’ve done a solid job of doing since he returned from injury. Brogdon has played in 4 games this season and has seen his minutes grow to upwards of 25 over his last 2 games played.
The question is how much usage he’ll have when sharing the court with Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma. It’s enough to make this a full unit play for me. He recorded 11 rebounds+assists in the last game he played with Kuzma and Poole. I’d expect enough opportunities to reach this number against a Bulls team that plays at a blazing speed and especially in a game with a total of 245.

Jimmy Butler (MIA) Over 9.5 rebounds+assists (-129)
Odds available at Caesars Sportsbook at time of publishing.
We’ll find out tonight how badly the Miami Heat want to advance in the NBA Cup. They’re playing their 3rd game in the group stage and face off against a Milwaukee Bucks squad that is 2-0. A win would go a long way in the standings. I’m turning my attention to Jimmy Butler, who has soared over this line this season.
If Miami gives Butler proper minutes then we could be looking at a stat-stuffing game. In 8 games this season where Butler has played at least 30 minutes, he’s over this line in 6 of them, with both losses registering 6 rebounds+assists in each. He looks to be fully healthy after back-to-back games of 33+ minutes. Look for him and Tyler Herro to dominate the ball for Miami tonight.
