NBA Prop Picks for Thursday, November 6
Explore the top NBA prop bets for Thursday, November 6, available with bonuses on FanDuel Sportsbook.
Devin Booker's Assist Performance
Devin Booker fell short of his assist prop in his first game against the Clippers this season, recording 7 assists on 13 potential assists. The Suns suffered a 27-point loss, limiting Booker's playing time to 26 minutes. Despite that, he nearly hit the assist mark.
Clippers’ Matchup Impact on Point Guards
The Clippers have allowed the fourth-most assists to point guards and rank fifth overall in assists allowed this season. Excluding Booker's missed prop, the other five point guards facing the Clippers have all exceeded their assist expectations.
This trend aligns with the Clippers being a bottom-nine defense against spot-up and off-screen plays, which often lead to assisted baskets.
Booker’s Recent Assist Trends
After missing his assist prop in the first three games, Booker has surpassed it in three of his last five games, with assist totals of 10, 9, and 13. He aims to reach 8 assists in tonight’s game.
Key Clippers Player to Watch: John Collins
With James Harden and Kawhi Leonard out, someone needs to step up for the Clippers. The prediction favors John Collins to fill that role tonight.
Though Collins has yet to hit his prop this season, the absence of two top usage players creates a different dynamic for him.
“This play is not without risks, as Collins has yet to hit this prop in any game this season, but it is an entirely different situation without two of the Clippers highest usage players not playing tonight.”
Author's Summary: The Clippers' lineup changes and defensive weaknesses create promising prop bet opportunities, especially for Booker’s assists and Collins’ breakout potential.
