NBA Player Props Today: Picks for Anthony Edwards & More
Anthony Edwards Player Prop
Anthony Edwards just nabbed 10 rebounds and racked up nine assists in his Game 4 win. He is now averaging 8.8 rebounds and 8.3 assists per game this series (17.1). While playing the over 14.5 is buying high, I actually think the increase in his production is sustainable.
Edwards is averaging 6.9 rebounds and 6.5 assists in the postseason (13.4) after averaging 5.4 and 5.1 in the regular season (10.5). His rebound and assist prop is now trading at 14.5 for tonight’s action because of his recent spike, but one wonders if that’s enough of an increase.
The underlying volume has increased for Edwards. He averaged 9.1 rebounding chances per game in the regular season, a number that has grown to 11 in the postseason and 14.8 this series. Likewise, his potential assists have grown from 8 to 10.7 and 13.3, respectively.
Everything suggests Edwards should continue to get boards and dish out assists at a rate better than his regular season averages. With Dallas struggling to stop the pick-and-roll and Edwards spending more of his time on the ball, I’m breaking one of my rules of NBA playoff player prop betting by buying high on him here. This number should be higher.
