Happy Wednesday, RotoBallers! Welcome to our Underdog Fantasy NBA DFS prop picks for the games on Wednesday, January 31, 2024. Welcome to our brand new NBA DFS series covering Underdog Fantasy contests! We will continue to focus on the NBA DFS props offered on Underdog called Higher/Lower (Over/Under).
Higher/Lower is traditional over/under DFS prop picks -- whether you think a player will score Over or Under the set lines, and choosing your amount. You can parlay multiple picks together to vastly increase the juice (e.g., three picks = 6x your bet). Underdog Fantasy offers some of the industry's best and easiest-to-win NBA DFS games. At Underdog Fantasy, you're not playing against other people -- you're just playing against the projections.

Cade Cunningham, 20.5 Points (LOWER)
Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham has been dealing with lingering injuries, playing only one game in the past three weeks. The Pistons guard is listed as probable for Wednesday's contest, but he will face the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Cavaliers allow the third-fewest points per game to opposing teams, so Cunningham and the Pistons could be in for a tough night.
Bam Adebayo, 19.5 Rebounds (LOWER)
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo has been the team's pulse for much of the season as the team has dealt with multiple injuries to key members of the starting lineup. Now that the team is healthy again, Adebayo does not have to shoulder as much of the offensive load against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday. The Kings have allowed the fewest points per game to opposing centers this season.
Nicolas Claxton, 11.5 Rebounds (LOWER)
Brooklyn Nets center Nic Claxton is averaging 10.4 rebounds per game this season, which would be a new career-high if he sustains it. Claxton faces the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. The Suns allow the second-fewest rebounds per game to opposing centers this season. Claxton has been excellent on the glass and as an interior defender, but he may struggle to bring down 12 boards in this contest.
Nikola Vucevic, 17.5 Points (HIGHER)
Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic missed time with a groin injury a few weeks ago, but he seems to have fully recovered since then. Vucevic has averaged 17.3 points per game in the last 30 days. The Bulls center faces the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday. The Hornets allow the second-most points per game to opposing centers this season. Vucevic could be in for a big performance.
James Harden, 9.5 Assists (HIGHER)
Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden has been one of the best players on one of the best teams in the NBA this season. The results were rocky to begin Harden's Clippers tenure, but the group of stars hit their stride and sit at fourth in the Western Conference. Harden is fifth in the league in assists per game. The Washington Wizards allow the second-most assists per game to opposing point guards this season.
Wendell Carter Jr., 7.5 Rebounds (HIGHER)
Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. has demonstrated his ability to contribute on the scoreboard and the glass when healthy this season. The Magic face the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. The Spurs allow the third-most rebounds per game to opposing centers this season. Carter Jr. has also pulled down at least eight rebounds in five of his last six games.
