TOR Scottie Barnes UNDER 20.5 Points vs. HOU
Scottie Barnes has put together a very strong season for the Toronto Raptors and was named as an NBA All-Star Game replacement. Despite having a good statistical season for the Raptors, Barnes has hit a bit of a wall to kick off February. Over his last five games, Barnes has only recorded 20 or more points in one contest. Barnes has his points prop set at 20.5 on Friday night.
CHA Brandon Miller UNDER 25.5 Points @ Bucks
Charlotte Hornets rookie Brandon Miller has had a strong first year in the league. Miller is averaging 16.4 points per game, and his points prop for tonight is set at 25.5. Miller has found his stride with LaMelo Ball off the court and is getting his shot off at a higher clip. Still, in a tough matchup against the Bucks, Miller will be hard-pressed to continue his surge. He's coming off a 20-point outing against the Toronto Raptors on February 7.
PHI Tyrese Maxey UNDER 28.5 Points vs. ATL
Tyrese Maxey has continued to develop into a star this season for the Philadelphia 76ers. The 76ers are set to take on the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night, with Maxey's points prop set at 28.5. With Joel Embiid out of the lineup, shots have been going up at a plentiful rate for Maxey. Still, over his last four games, Maxey has only scored 29 or more points once.
DEN Nikola Jokic UNDER 27.5 Points @ SAC
It's been another sensational season for Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets are coming off an impressive road victory last night against the Lakers and will look to continue rolling tonight in Sacramento. Jokic is the type of player who will take what the defense gives him, meaning one night he's more of a distributor and others a score. His points prop tonight is set at 27.5. Jokic has fallen under that number in four of the last five games.
SAC De'Aaron Fox UNDER 24.5 Points vs. DEN
De'Aaron Fox and the Sacramento Kings are set to host the reigning NBA champion Denver Nuggets on Friday evening. The 6'3" guard out of Kentucky has had another dominant campaign for the Kings and has hit points prop set at 24.5 tonight. The Nuggets are a strong defensive team, especially late in games, and Fox has gone under the number in three of his last five games.
