NBA Prop of the Day

NBA is here, and that means we have tons of new stats, tools and information to dive into. This article will present you with five actionable stats in order to help you with the night’s NBA slate of games.
Let’s get into some actionable stats that will help you build your best lineups!
1. The 76ers rank 3rd in DEF this year.
They also play at the fourth-slowest pace in the NBA. That along with the low 216.5 game total might lead us to think this might not be the best matchup environment for the Nets, but it is important to remember that Joel Embiid is out as well.
2. In 210 minutes, Tobias Harris has a 31% usage rate with James Harden, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid off the floor since the Harden trade last year.
We can expect a ton of usage for Tobias Harris, who may be the primary scorer for the 76ers tonight.
3. The Kings rank 28th in DEF this season
They are also top 10 in pace, which could lead to a prime matchup for the Grizzlies tonight.
4. Ja Morant has a 39% usage rate with Desmond Bane off the floor this year.
A lot of that time is also with Jaren Jackson off the floor, who is expected to play tonight. But regardless if he plays, Ja Morant will have a ton of usage in a great matchup.
5. Bones Hyland has a 34% usage rate with Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray off the floor this season.
Bones Hyland has always been a strong fantasy producer, and now we may see a massive ceiling, as he should see more time and usage.He is also in a great matchup against the Pistons, who are without one of their best perimeter defenders in Saddiq Bey.
