NBA DFS Prop Picks for PrizePicks: Wednesday, December 20

The 2023-2024 NBA season is here, and our friends over at PrizePicks still have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power or flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.

Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the industry's best and easiest-to-win NBA DFS games. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.

PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For the NBA, Single Stat consists of points, rebounds, assists, three-pointers made, and free throws made, in which you determine if the player in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Today, we will look at some single-stat scores for tonight, December 20.

Single Stat NBA Totals - DFS Prop Picks

Editor's Note: Prize Picks prop totals are not always available first thing in the morning, so check back during the day, as other props may be added during the day.

Tyrese Maxey OVER 1.5 Turnovers - Wednesday's game between the Philadelphia 76ers and Minnesota Timberwolves might allude to the NBA Finals. Tyrese Maxey's flirtation with All-NBA status will come into play for Philadephia's chances to play in June for the first time since 2001. However, before we get too ahead of ourselves, Maxey must get past the NBA's No.1 defense, the Timberwolves.

Maxey eclipsed 1.5 turnovers twice in the last five games, and none of those teams ranked in the top 10 defensively. Wednesday's matchup will pressure Maxey into compromising scenarios, especially considering the Sixers' on-the-fly approach to play-making. Press the over on 1.5 turnovers for Maxey.

Luka Doncic UNDER 10.5 Assists - From a statistical standpoint, Luka Doncic owns the Los Angeles Clippers. In 17 regular season games, the four-time All-NBA earner averaged 32.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 7.3 assists. The Clippers, far from the shaky play of  James Harden's inception into the team, are winners of eight consecutive games. Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks don't have Kyrie Irving (leg injury), Josh Green (elbow), and Dereck Lively II for Wednesday's matchup.

Although it's highly possible Doncic fights through the surging Clippers for a triple-double, I find it doubtful he'll squeeze out more than 10.5 assists from such a barren roster. Slam the under on 10.5 assists for Doncic.

Anthony Edwards OVER 26.5 Points - Anthony Edwards is on quite the roll, scoring 69 points in the Timberwolves' last two games. Fans should anticipate a fun game with Edwards matched against the Sixers on Wednesday night. However, looking at the Sixers' depth chart, I don't see anyone who truly bothers Edwards on a defensive assignment. It's likely Edwards calms down from his scoring surge, at least in the sense of scoring over 30 points, but I think he flirts with dropping another 30-bomb against Philadelphia's wingless defensive attack. Gently tap the over on 26.5 points for Edwards.

Karl-Anthony Towns OVER 1.5 3-PT Made - For a player who deems himself the "greatest big-man shooter of all time," a 1.5 line for three-point shots made seems relatively low. Only two games removed from a season-high 40-point performance over the Indiana Pacers, I think there is still some steam left on the iron for another good shooting night. While Towns surpassed such a line twice in his past five outings, it's interesting that the projection hasn't increased. Ultimately, due to such a low line and the confidence in Towns' three-point shooting, I'm slamming the over on 1.5 three-point shots made for Towns.

Overall recommendation for this play: POWER
