ZT details his best player prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for tonight’s game between the Trail Blazers and the Thunder.

The NBA has eight games on tap for Sunday throughout the afternoon and evening. In one of the Western Conference matchups, the Oklahoma City Thunder put their undefeated home record on the line as they host the Portland Trail Blazers at 7:00 p.m. ET. Along with the main betting lines, DraftKings Sportsbook has plenty of player props to consider on both sides of this matchup. Let’s dive in and take a look at a few player prop bets that stand out as my favorites.

In the bigger picture, on DraftKings Sportsbook, the Thunder are heavy 15.5-point home favorites with the game total set at O/U 233.5 points.

The Thunder are 16-1 in their title defense after dispatching the Jazz on Friday. Their only loss this season came on the road against Portland on November 5, and they’ll be out to avenge that loss on Sunday night at home. The Trail Blazers have battled plenty of adversity this season but are hanging on at 7-9 after beating the Warriors on Friday in an NBA Cup matchup. Can the Trail Blazers pull of another huge upset and beat the Thunder for the second time this season when no one else has done it even once? As we find out the answers to those questions, let’s take a look at some player prop bets that are in good places to pay off.

Trail Blazers vs. Thunder Best Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Jerami Grant 20+ Points (+100)

Grant struggled on Friday against the Warriors, going 0-for-8 for the field and finishing with only five points. He was just returning from an illness and seemed to be at much less than 100%, but Caleb Love stepped up and carried the load.

Before his disappointing Friday, Grant had been on a nice roll before that with 26 points against the Mavericks and 33 points against the Bulls in his two previous games.

He is averaging 18.4 points per game this season, and 19 points in the two games he has played without Jrue Holiday (calf) and Shaedon Sharpe (calf), who will remain sidelined Sunday. Grant will have to step in as the primary scorer for the Trail Blazers again on Sunday, and hopefully, he’ll be able to produce more than he did on Friday.

Grant had 20 points against the Thunder in the last matchup between these teams, and he’ll have another chance to get to at least that level with a lot more work coming his way in this rematch.

Cason Wallace over 1.5 3PM (+114)

Wallace has been a contributor to the Thunder’s starting lineup all year, starting all 16 of his games and playing 28.7 minutes per game. He’s averaging only 8.8 points per game with only a 13.8% usage rate, but he is still a solid pick to get multiple three-pointers.

Wallace has shown the ability to go off for bigger totals in some specific matchups in the past, and he has hit multiple three-pointers in three of his last four games. It’s hard to know exactly how to back the Thunder starters since they can sometimes get fewer minutes in blowout wins. Usually, I stick to lower totals in this situation case, so since Wallace only has to make two three-pointers to go over this total, I love getting it at plus money.

Ajay Mitchell 22+ Points + Rebounds + Assists (-112)

One of the most impressive parts of the Thunder’s scalding start is that they have done the whole thing without Jalen Williams, who has their second scorer last year on their way to the title. Mitchell has stepped into a much larger role without Williams and is averaging 23.5 PFA (points, rebounds, and assists) in his 17 games after averaging only 9.8 PRA in his 36 games last season. His playing time has jumped from 16.6 minutes per game last year to 27.9 minutes per game game this year.

Mitchell got a few starts early in November but has spent most of the year leading the second unit. He had over this prop line of PRA on Wednesday against the Kings and in six of his last nine games. He only had 20 PRA on Friday in his most recent game, though.

In the first matchup between these teams, Mitchell had 21 points, four rebounds, and three assists while getting a spot start. He should have a good chance to produce whether this game is close or turns into a blowout since the Blazers are so short-handed in the backcourt.
