Free NBA Picks Cheat Sheet For Today

Our NBA betting cheat sheet today is ready to roll!

Let’s break it down.

BEST POINTS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Peyton Watson > 18.5 Points

Watson has been forced into a bigger offensive role alongside Jamal Murray because of injuries to Nikola Jokic, Aaron Gordon, Cameron Johnson and Christian Braun. He’s averaging 36.2 minutes and 22.0 points per game in the month of January.

UPDATE: Jokic is now planning to play on Friday night.

BEST REBOUNDS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Donovan Clingan > 11.5 Rebounds

We originally had Domantas Sabonis in this spot, but he was just ruled out. We’ll pivot to Clingan, who’s averaging 14.7 rebounds per 36 minutes in 44 games this season. The second-year pro has averaged 30.0 minutes, 12.4 points and 13.0 rebounds in 14 January games.

BEST ASSISTS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Cade Cunningham > 8.5 Assists

Cunningham is dishing out 9.9 assists per 36 minutes heading into this road matchup against Steph Curry and the Warriors. He’s averaging the most potential assists per game of anyone in the NBA (18.1).

UNDERDOG FANTASY POINTS PICK

Pick: Keyonte George > 41.0 Fantasy Points

Lauri Markkanen and Jusuf Nurkic have been ruled out for tonight’s favorable game against the woeful Nets. George has become a bonafide star this season, putting up 25.2 points, 6.9 assists and 4.2 rebounds per 36 minutes.

Good luck!
