I’m looking to continue our mini run with NBA player props. I’ve cashed 5 out of my last 6 prop bets and am turning to Joel Embiid tonight. On a small slate, Embiid will look to make it sweat-free for us.
Let’s dive into my best NBA player prop bet for games on Tuesday, January 16. Also make sure you also read our NBA predictions for today’s games.
Joel Embiid, C, PHI, Over 32.5 points (-120)
Line available at ESPNBet at time of publishing.
If you’re not following me on'X, do so now. I put out Joel Embiid Over 32.5 points at -110 early this morning. The line has since moved to 33.5 on most books except on ESPNBet and BetMGM. If your only option is 33.5, I also like it there, even though the hit rate drops from 57% to 54%. Nonetheless, I expect Embiid to dominate against Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets.
