Best NBA Player Props Today: Sunday, November 30

Every day during the NBA regular season and playoffs, we run through our favorite picks of the night.

Cason Wallace < 14.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists

There’s been a lot of talk recently about how baseball needs a salary cap because the Dodgers are ruining the competitive balance of the league. That said, a salary cap doesn’t guarantee balance. Case in point – the Oklahoma City Thunder. They dominated the league en route to an NBA title last season, and they look even more dominant in 2025-26. They’re currently sitting at 19-1, and their +15.7 Net Rating is on pace to set a new NBA record.

The most alarming part? The Thunder have played all but one game without Jalen Williams this season, who is arguably their second-best player.

Williams returned to the lineup on Friday, and the team now has an embarrassment of riches in the backcourt. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the reigning MVP, and Williams is an All-NBA-level performer when healthy. Alex Caruso is a ferocious on-ball defender, and he was instrumental in the team’s championship last season. Ajay Mitchell is a blossoming star – as if the Thunder needed another one of those – while Lu Dort fits their defense scheme perfectly.

It leaves Wallace with a bit of an uncertain role moving forward. He still managed to play 32 minutes in the team’s last game, but Mitchll exited early with an injury, while Williams played less than 30 minutes in his return. Mitchell is not listed on the injury report for Sunday’s contest, and Williams should earn more minutes moving forward.

Wallace has averaged just 14.4 points + rebounds + assists across 28.9 minutes per game so far this season. If that number goes down even slightly, there should be some value in him tallying less than 14.5 vs. the Blazers.

Pick: Cason Wallace Lower Than 14.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists

Miles McBride > 11.5 Points

The Knicks are starting to get rolling. They’ve won three straight games and 10 of their past 13, and they’re now No. 1 in the Eastern Conference in terms of Net Rating. They’ve been doing it primarily with their elite offense, with only the Nuggets and Rockets averaging more points per 100 possessions.

The Knicks have been playing without OG Anunoby and Landry Shamet of late, and both players will be sidelined once again on Sunday. That should keep McBride’s role in the rotation very secure. He’s started three straight games for the Knicks, and he’s averaged 34.0 minutes and 15.7 points per game in those outings. He’s shot the ball extremely well of late – he’s 10-12 from 3-point range over his past two contests – but he’s had 19 points in both of those outings. Even with a bit of regression, he could still potentially get to 12 points vs. the Raptors.

Toronto has been better than expected to start the year, and they’ve been an excellent defensive squad. They’re currently ranked fifth in defensive efficiency, and they’re allowing the fourth-fewest points per game. However, the Knicks are still implied for a very healthy 119.0 points in this contest, so they should be able to put the ball in the basket. This line is simply too low for McBride in his current role.

Pick: Miles McBride Higher Than 11.5 Points

Must be 18+ (19+ in AL, NE; 19+ in CO for some games; 21+ in AZ, MA, and VA) and present in a state where Underdog Fantasy operates. Terms apply.

Complete NBA Prop Bet Guide

The National Basketball Association (NBA) has become one of the biggest betting markets in the thriving US sports betting industry. There are several great ways to bet on the NBA, but NBA prop betting is one of the latest trends that is starting to become more popular.

NBA prop betting has now taken on a life of its own in some respects, and you will see more of these betting options available every season. If you have not yet made an NBA prop bet, then this upcoming season is the perfect time to start.

This NBA prop betting guide will help explain what this type of betting is, and it will also give you some tips on how to become a better bettor when it comes to this form of sports wagering.

What Is A Prop Bet?

A prop bet is unlike any other form of betting that is offered in the US sports betting industry. Most typical options focus on the outcome of a sporting event, but that isn’t the case with a prop bet. 

This form of betting focuses on events that occur during a game, and that is what makes this betting style unique. NBA prop betting started with only a handful of options, but that is no longer the case. There is currently a vast market for this type of wager, and new NBA prop betting options continue to emerge.

NBA Prop Betting Options

It’s hard to predict what NBA prop betting options will be offered individual sports options arens that are pretty standard. This list has continued to grow over the last few years, and that should be a common theme in the future. 

Here are some of the top NBA prop betting markets you will see in the sportsbook, but there could always be more added on a case-by-case basis.

NBA Draft Props

Before the NBA season even starts each year, the NBA Draft takes place. This has turned into one of the biggest nights on the NBA calendar, and it is also a great time to make an NBA prop betting wager. 

There are several different ways to bet on the NBA Draft, and all of the different options would be considered a prop bet. Here are some of the common NBA Draft options that you might see: 

  • Who will be the first player to be drafted overall?
  • Will the first player be from the United States or an international prospect?
  • Which conference will have the most first-round draft picks?

NBA Player Props

The most common NBA prop betting option that you will see, and also the most popular to make, is what is known as an individual prop bet. This is also called an NBA player prop bet, and it is a wager placed on a certain statistic for an NBA player.

Sportsbooks are going to have long lists for this type of wager as they are trying to get as much action as possible. Usually, only the top players in each game will be featured, but you can also find options for reserves as well. 

It’s hard to come up with potential options for this type of bet because there will be such a long list that is out there.

Team Prop Bet

A team prop bet is extremely similar to an individual prop bet, but it focuses on one team as opposed to just one individual. This has become a popular NBA prop betting option as some bettors tend to prefer wagering on a team rather than just looking at one player. 

There are times that sportsbooks will put each team in an NBA game against one another to come up with this type of prop betting option. Here are a few NBA team prop betting options that you might see:

  • Will the Los Angeles Lakers lead wire-to-wire?
  • Who will have more dunks in the game: Chicago Bulls or Detroit Pistons?
  • Will there be over/under 2.5 technical fouls for the Cleveland Cavaliers?

Full Season Prop Bets

One of the newest forms of prop betting that you will find is what is known as a full-season prop bet. This closely resembles a futures bet in traditional sports betting, and that has become a popular number of bettors to wager on the NBA.

With a full-season prop bet, most of the bets lock when the regular season begins. The final result of a full-season NBA prop bet isn’t revealed until the end of the season, so some patience is required for this type of bet. 

Here are some potential full-season NBA prop bets that you might see:

  • Will a center win the NBA MVP Award?
  • Will any NBA team win at least 70 games during the regular season?
  • Over/Under 2.5 sub-.500 teams that make the NBA Playoffs.

NBA All-Star Game Weekend

The NBA All-Star Game has transformed into a full weekend of festivities, and the sportsbooks in the United States have taken note. The All-Star Game itself is a big draw, but so are the Slam Dunk Contest and the Three-Point Shootout.

If you are someone who is looking to wager on the NBA outside of an actual game, then the All-Star Game weekend might be the perfect time for you. You will find a long list of NBA prop betting options during this time, and here are some that you might see:

  • Which participant will win the Slam Dunk Contest?
  • Over/Under 28.5 points was the highest score in the three-point shootout.
  • Who will win the NBA All-Star Game MVP Award?

Are You Looking For Fun Or Skill Options?

Now that you know some of the top NBA prop betting options that are out there, you also have to ask yourself another question: are you looking for fun prop bets, or do you want to use your NBA knowledge?

Pro actually got its start as a fun way to bet on the Super Bowl, but you can now wager on prop bets that require some knowledge and skill. Before you click the “submit” button on an NBA prop betting wager, it is important to know what type of bet you are making.

Fun Prop Bets

A fun prop bet is a way to get non-sports fans interested in making a wager on an NBA betting market. This type of prop bet doesn’t usually require any basketball knowledge to place the wager, and it focuses on events that take place off of the court. 

Here are some examples of potential fun NBA prop bets:

  • Will the NBA Championship coach have Gatorade poured on his head?
  • Will there be a Budweiser commercial during the first quarter?
  • Will a certain celebrity be sitting courtside for this NBA game?

NBA Player Prop Betting Tips

Now that you have read about some of the top NBA prop betting options that are out there, you are probably excited to get in on the action. Before you start making some NBA prop betting wagers, it is important to look at some tips or strategies that will help you be more successful with this type of betting.

Beware Of Load Management

The term “load management” is typically only used when it comes to the NBA, and it is a term that can have a huge impact on NBA prop betting. Load management refers to teams resting some of their strong efforts to keep them healthy and fresh for the postseason.

When top players are sitting out of games, it can have a big impact on NBA prop betting, especially when it comes to team betting options. This information isn’t always easy to find as you must search long and hard to find out what players might be missing.

Focus On Key Players

If you are planning on making an NBA prop bet on an individual player, then it is wise to only wager on the biggest stars for each team. Those are the players that will have the most information available, and that will allow you to do plenty of research.

It might seem tempting to bet on a reserve player to go over a certain number of points or assists, but you need to be certain that you have researched recent trends and analyzed that particular matchup.

Show Some Restraint

Finally, if you are planning on getting involved in NBA prop bets, you must show some restraint when it comes to betting. You are going to be overwhelmed with NBA prop betting options, but that doesn’t mean that you have to wager on each market.

It is important to use a smaller betting unit when you are making an NBA prop betting wager as this isn’t usually an easy bet to win. If you don’t like any of the NBA prop betting options that are listed, then it is best to take the night off and try again on another date.
