After witnessing Nikola Jokic make history with a 30-20-20 triple-double last night, today’s NBA slate offers more exciting opportunities for standout moments. With 8 games on the schedule, including a marquee matchup between the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers, here are some top player prop picks for Saturday’s action.
Stephen Curry (GSW) Over 10.5 Assists & Rebounds (+110)
Stephen Curry continues to lead the Golden State Warriors, who’ve won 8 of their last 10 games. Beyond his iconic scoring, Curry has also been active in contributing with assists and rebounds. He’s hit the over on this line in 3 of his last 4 games and is averaging a combined 13.8 for these categories in March. Facing the Detroit Pistons again, Curry recorded 9 rebounds and 6 assists in their first meeting this season. With Jalen Duren holding a size advantage, Curry will likely need to step in and contribute on the boards while continuing to orchestrate the offense. His playmaking in wins is even more impressive, averaging 6.7 assists per game—almost a full assist more than in losses.
Tari Eason (HOU) Over 1.5 Made Threes (+120)
Tari Eason of the Houston Rockets has quietly been a strong contributor, especially from beyond the arc. Over his last six games, he’s hit 2 or more threes in five of them, shooting an impressive 48.3% from deep. Against the New Orleans Pelicans, he knocked down 4 of 8 threes during his 20-point performance. The Pelicans give up the most three-point attempts and rank 28th in three-point field goal percentage allowed, making this a great opportunity for Eason to continue his success from long range.
Zaccharie Risacher (ATL) Over 1.5 Made Threes (-120)
Rookie Zaccharie Risacher, the No. 1 overall pick, is finding his rhythm in the NBA, particularly from beyond the three-point line. After shooting 44% in February and 56.3% in March, he’s hit the over on 1.5 threes in 7 of his last 9 games. In his previous two matchups with the Indiana Pacers this season, he made 3 threes in each game. With the attention on Trae Young, Risacher should have ample chances to knock down more threes and continue his strong shooting form.
