Ingram missed out on a second straight All-Star appearance despite having a career-high 53.7% effective field-goal percentage because he plays in a Western Conference stacked with elite wings.
Another NBA Thursday is prime for the prop market, with a five-game slate in tow for this evening and some exciting matchups. Making our way over to OddsShopper, we’ll dive into the Player Props subcategories to seek out any weaknesses in the NBA betting odds while cross-referencing player stats and rotations alongside recent team trends to help solidify the best values available for our NBA.
Ingram’s 3-point shooting percentage has taken a dip from last season, but he should at least have the volume to clear 2.5 made 3-pointers Thursday.
The Heat are one of only two teams that allow more 3-point attempts per game than the Pelicans and Miami allows the second-most 3-point attempts to opposing small forwards on the third-highest 3-point percentage.
Furthermore, Ingram has taken eight 3-pointers in each of his last two games against the Heat and made 4 of eight attempts in their meeting earlier this season. Miami could be without NBA All-Defense SF Jimmy Butler for this game, as well.
BET INGRAM OVER 2.5 3-POINTERS (-130) for 1 unit.

Portland Trail Blazers C Enes Kanter OVER 13.5 rebounds (+105)
The Sacramento Kings travel to the Rose City to play the Blazers in what’s usually a fast-paced, high-scoring shootout and that leads to a lot of possession and inflated rebounding numbers.
Kanteris one of the best glass cleaners in the Association. He has gone Over 13.5 rebounds in four of his previous five games and is averaging 14.2 rebounds over that stretch.

Kanter didn’t start either of the first two Kings-Trail Blazers meetings this season and didn’t play 20 minutes in either game, but he grabbed 15 boards in the first meeting.
Kanter is averaging 30.0 minutes per game since being named a starter and in those games where he’s played at least 30 minutes, he is averaging 14.5 rebounds per game.
Since he didn’t play 25 minutes in either of his last two games, there should be enough in the tank for Kanter to play extended minutes against the Kings, whose C Richaun Holmes is one of their most important players.
Kanter is third in the league in rebounding percentage and second in offensive rebounding rate. The Kings have the lowest defensive rebounding rate and give up the fourth-most rebounds to opposing centers in the NBA.
BET KANTER OVER 13.5 REBOUNDS (+105) for 1 unit.

Wednesday’s NBA slate features two tantalizing point guard matchups as LaMelo Ball’s Charlotte Hornets face Ja Morant’s Memphis Grizzlies while Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks play the Dallas Mavericks and Luka Doncic for the second time this year.

Nba Player Props Tonight
Charlotte Hornets PG LaMelo Ball OVER 17.5 points (-115)
Nba Picks Against The Spread
This is Ball’s sixth game in the starting lineup and it has made a massive difference thus far in Charlotte’s offensive production.
Over the past five games, the Hornets are averaging 119.8 points per game to rank sixth in the NBA and Ball is putting up 22.6 points on 51.4% 3-point shooting, with 6.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game.
Not only is Ball in rhythm, but he vs. Morant is a fascinating point guard duel that showcases the future of the position and should be an entertaining one-on-one battle.
Memphis’ defense plummets in efficiency when Morant is on the floor (according to CleaningTheGlass.com) and all of the Grizzlies’ injuries have contributed to their 26th-ranked defensive rating over the last five games.
Keep in mind Ball has been on fire from deep lately and Memphis is 27th in 3-point defense.

New Orleans Pelicans PF Zion Williamson OVER 22.5 points (-120)
The Pelicans are in the Windy City Wednesday to play the Chicago Bulls and Williamson will be a bull in a china shop so to speak in this game.
Chicago is allowing the third-most points per game and free-throw attempts to opposing power forwards in the league while Williamson is averaging 23.5 points per game with the seventh-highest field-goal percentage and sixth-most free-throw attempts per game.
Injuries could play a big role in Chicago’s weak interior defense as the Bulls are missing both frontcourt starters. Either way, Zion has gone Over this number in 11 of 22 starts this season and has shot below 50% in only five games.

Nba Props For Tonight Games
Atlanta Hawks PF John Collins OVER 26.5 points & rebounds (-115)
The point guard matchup in Hawks-Mavericks might be the draw but I’m more interested in the battle of the bigs. Collins has tallied at least 37 combined points and rebounds in each of his four career starts against the Mavericks. He has scored 35 points in each of the last two games against the Mavs on better than 74.4% shooting.
One of those games was last week and there’s no reason Collins’ ownership of the interior can’t continue vs. a Dallas team 29th in opponent’s field goal percentage at the rim (according to CleaningTheGlass.com) and 27th in rebounding percentage.
