Sleeper.com NBA DFS Prop Picks - Over/Under Props for Friday, December 22

Welcome to our Sleeper NBA DFS prop picks for Friday, December 22. Friday’s six game slate is projected to be high-scoring with the lowest point total of the night being 225 between the Mavericks and Rockets. Since one of the next three days will consist of zero basketball, it’s best to take advantage of every opportunity we can while we can. Six games doesn’t offer a ton of options like we’re used to, but tomorrow’s 13-game slate is sure to make up for whatever doesn’t happen tonight.

NBA DFS Props - Over/Under Picks for Friday, December 22

Clint Capela OVER 10.5 Rebounds + Assists

The Heat are notorious for mucking up prop bets, but you can’t just refuse to bet against a certain team over a bias. Miami’s front court is productive and they space the floor well, meaning Clint Capela will either be chasing undersized forwards around the perimeter or battling Bam Adebayo in the paint. Either way, his upside for rebounds remains high despite the minutes being fairly shaky.

The assists add a nice buffer since Capela is usually good for 10 rebounds a night anyway, but playing against the Heat does drive up the concern. It’s important to note that last game between the Timberwolves and Heat, Rudy Gobert finished with nine rebounds and Karl-Anthony Towns pulled down 13. That being said, Adebayo is playing in just his third game since returning from injury.

Devin Booker OVER 13.5 Points + Rebounds

Since rebounds are random and assists depend on teammates, it’s hard to feel set on this bet even if you feel safe betting on Devin Booker. He’s going to score against the Kings, but so is Kevin Durant, and neither is going to concede offense in a game where offense is the only thing that matters.

Booker’s assist potential is ever-increasing, but that means peripheral Suns players need to hit those shots. The Kings rarely offer enough resistance to put a hold on high-scoring games and there’s no way any under here between the four main superstars is safe. Even if we are stuck relying on the Suns' supporting cast and hoping the ball bounces Booker’s way, that’s a good bet when playing Sacramento's fast-paced dynamic.

Mikal Bridges UNDER 8.5 Rebounds + Assists

Being your team’s best player comes with expectations. In this case, playing the defending champions forces most teams into tough defensive situations. Since Mikal Bridges is currently holding the reigns as best two-way player on the Nets, there’s a good chance his stats are going to be the first sacrifice.

Despite how poorly some of the Nuggets players are playing right now, any relaxed effort gives Denver the space they need to rejuvenate and get right back on track. The only difference is the Nuggets still win even when they play poorly and Brooklyn is on a four-game skid heading into today. Another poor game from Brooklyn means Bridges is hitting his unders.
