Free NBA DFS Picks Cheat Sheet For 12/15

Our NBA betting cheat sheet today is ready to roll! Let’s get into some picks.

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. Offer not valid in MD, MI, NJ, NY, OH, and PA. Concerned with your play? Call 1-800-MY-RESET or 1-800-GAMBLER or visit www.ncpgambling.org; AZ: 1-800-NEXT-STEP (1-800-639-8783) or text NEXT-STEP to 53342; NY: Call the 24/7 HOPEline at 1-877-8-HOPENY or Text HOPENY (467369).

BEST POINTS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Jaden Ivey > 7.5 Points
NBA Player Prop: P.J. Washington > 14.5 Points

Check out these free picks, along with the reasons for the selections!

BEST REBOUNDS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Kevin Love > 5.5 Rebounds

Love could push for 20 minutes tonight without Jusuf Nurkic. On the other side, Anthony Davis and Daniel Gafford are both questionable, which could help clear the paint for Love.

BEST ASSISTS PROP

NBA Player Prop: Brandon Williams > 4.5 Assists

UPDATE: Williams has been downgraded to questionable.

There will be more playing time opportunities without D’Angelo Russell, who plays Williams’ position. The Mavericks also have a handful of other questionable bodies, which can only help the case for Williams. Jazz play at a very high pace and are terrible defensively.

UNDERDOG FANTASY POINTS

Kawhi Leonard > 42.95 Fantasy Points – Kawhi has quietly been logging heavy minutes and playing some of his best basketball in a while. He’s averaging 28.1 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per 36 minutes through 15 games this season (Basketball Reference). That points average would be his highest since the 2019/20 season.

If James Harden ends up sitting (currently Q), he’d have to carry even harder in a home matchup against the Grizzlies. LA is favored by 4.5.
