Tuesday Player Prop Best Bets
Below you’ll find my official plays on the player prop market for Tuesday. These are the ones that make the VSiN Pro Picks page and count towards my season-long record.
Ryan Rollins Over 27.5 Points + Assists (-118) vs. 76ers
Bucks at 76ers – 8:00 pm ET
With Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Porter Jr. out tonight, I’m going back to the situation that was highly profitable to start the year. In the six games that Rollins has played without that duo, the talented guard is averaging 24.8 points and 7.8 assists per game. He also went Over a total of 27.5 points and assists in five of those contests. The Sixers are also very weak defending at the rim, where Rollins scores 31% of his points. On top of that, they have been miserable defending pick-and-roll ball handlers, ranking 26th in the league at stopping them from scoring. Well, Rollins scores 5.7 points per game in PnR situations, and his role should call for a lot of them tonight. I like him to do good work as a scorer, while also doing some dishing.
Grayson Allen Over 3.5 Assists (-125) vs. Nets
Nets at Suns – 9:00 pm ET
Over the last five games, Grayson Allen is averaging 4.6 assists per game. He’s also averaging 7.3 potential assists and 5.8 adjusted assists per game in that span. With that in mind, Allen is doing a decent job of setting teammates up, and that should continue without Devin Booker out there. I know it might seem like a better idea to go Over on his points or 3s, as he is a very reliable shooter. However, I think his ability to attack the basket and make good reads is a little underrated. And Allen actually just had eight dimes against this Nets defense on January 19. He might not reach that mark again, but I think he can flirt with 5-6 assists.
