There are 10 games on Friday night in the NBA with many appealing player props with injuries presenting more opportunities closer to game time. Four games have a line of 5.5 points or fewer and 6 games have a total of at least 232 points with the Suns-Kings game the highest at 239.5 points. Here are my picks for tonight.
Deni Avdija over 13.5 points (-125)
Avdija is in a good spot with Bradley Beal and Kyle Kuzma out due to injuries. The duo missed the last game for Washington and Avdija started and scored 16 points in 32 minutes. The prior game with Beal active and Kuzma out, Avdija came off the bench and scored 16 points in 34 minutes. Avdija will get the start tonight and has one of the best matchups. The Spurs rank last in defensive efficiency and allow 122.2 points per game, which ranks last in the NBA. In 8 of the last 11 games Avdija has played 30 minutes, he has gone over this total.
