Best Mikal Bridges Player Props Bets vs. the Portland Trail Blazers

As the Brooklyn Nets prepare to face the Portland Trail Blazers, all eyes are on Mikal Bridges, who has been a standout performer for the Nets this season. Despite the team’s struggles, Bridges has shown his ability to step up and fill the stat sheet, particularly in scoring and defensive metrics. His recent performances suggest he could be a key factor in this matchup, especially with the Nets aiming to snap their losing streak and climb back into playoff contention.

Mikal Bridges Over 5.5 Rebounds (-125)

Mikal Bridges has been a consistent presence on the boards for the Nets, and his rebounding average this season is close to the line set for the upcoming game against the Trail Blazers. With a season average of 5.36 rebounds per game and a hit percentage of 43.59%, Bridges has shown he can be relied upon to contribute in this area. Moreover, his last five games have seen an uptick in performance, with an average of 6.2 rebounds per game and a hit percentage of 60%, indicating a positive trend that supports the likelihood of him hitting the over on the rebounding prop. Additionally, considering the injuries on the Trail Blazers’ side, including key big men like Deandre Ayton and Robert Williams III, there could be more opportunities for Bridges to grab rebounds against a potentially weakened frontcourt.

Mikal Bridges Over 2.5 Three Pointers (+120)

Mikal Bridges’ proficiency from beyond the arc has been notable, and while his season average for three-pointers made stands at 2.03, it’s his recent surge in performance that makes the over on this prop an attractive pick. In the last five games, Bridges has averaged 2.2 made three-pointers, showing an improvement and a hit percentage of 40% for this period. This upward trend, coupled with the fact that he made 4 three-pointers in his last game against the Trail Blazers, suggests that he has the capability to exceed the line set for the upcoming game. The Trail Blazers’ defense has had its struggles, and if Bridges can exploit their perimeter defense as he did in their previous encounter, there’s a good chance he will hit the over on the three-pointers made prop.
