NBA DFS Prop Picks for 12/17/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

Happy Tuesday, RotoBallers. We had a great 4-for-5 night last night if you tailed my Monkey Knife Fight picks. Only Tim Hardaway Jr and his 0-for-5 night from three point land let us down. Let's do it again!

We have an almost as enticing slate tonight with six games, so let's find four or five values that we can try to take advantage of again. Best of luck to those taking the plunge on MKF. It's a great time!

You can follow me on Twitter @BellRoto. This is a great time for NBA content as Christmas time rolls around. If you have more questions about these prop bets or other NBA DFS situations, hit me up throughout the day on Twitter. Let’s do it!

Editor's Note: Here's a really nice special offer for all RotoBaller readers from our Monkey Knife Fight friends: New AND Existing Player Bonus - All players receive a 100% matched signup or reload bonus up to $50 with code 'RBNBA19'  Once you sign up and deposit, use our NBA prop picks below to get off on a winning foot! 

 

Domantas Sabonis (IND) OVER 11.5 Rebounds

The MKF algorithm likely decreased this rebound line for Sabonis due to his matchup with what has been a very stout Lakers squad. Even still, the Indian big man has at least 12 rebounds in 10 of his last 11 contests. He'll be needed more than usual against bodies like Anthony Davis, JaVale McGee, and Dwight Howard. I expect an underrated Pacers squad to hang tough for most of this game, and Sabonis' work down low and on the glass should be a big part of that.

Terry Rozier (CHA) UNDER 16.5 Points

With the immaculate rise of Devonte' Graham has come the surprising decline of Terry Rozier. With Graham taking over as the primary scorer for the Hornets' offense, Rozier has become less efficient and more of a distributor of late. He's scored 13 or less points in four out of his last five games, and with De'Aaron Fox rumored to be returning for Sacramento on Tuesday, this is not a matchup that would help change that trend.

Trae Young (ATL) OVER 26.5 Points

If I know Trae Young, a game in Madison Square Garden is definitely one he'll want to get up for. This is a pretty favorable line for a high-scoring, media sensation guard in a game that involves two fast teams lacking defense. Coming off a 30-point effort, I think we see a Young blow-up spot here at The Garden.

DeAndre Jordan (BKN) UNDER 10.5 Rebounds

This is the type of game that Jordan could find himself on the court a little less due to a lack of a true big man on New Orleans. That was the case last time these two teams played, as the big man played just around 15 minutes and collected just five boards. I'm gonnna go with that again here and say he ends up with 10 or less on Tuesday.

Rudy Gobert (UTA) OVER 13.5 Rebounds

Different than the aforementioned Jordan, Gobert seems to get his minutes no matter what. And he can feast when there's not an opposing big man who can hang with him inside. Vucevic is just coming back from injury, and he's more of an offensive threat than a player to stay away from with opposing bigs. For that reason, I'll stick with the trend of Gobert collecting 15 or more rebounds in each of his last three games. Let the big man eat!
