After a stat-stuffing day by multiple stars last night, I expect much of the same for this 7-game slate. Let’s dive into our top NBA player prop bets for games on Thursday, December 14.

Dereck Lively II, C, DAL Under 17.5 points + rebounds (-128)
Line available at FanDuel Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Dereck Lively II has been a crucial piece for this Dallas Mavericks team. In his first 21 games of his career, Lively is averaging 9 points, 8 rebounds per game, and is atop the league in field goal percentage. The only thing stopping him is a dominant defensive frontcourt. Well, that’s what he has in front of him tonight against Rudy Gobert and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
