Freedman’s Favorite Fantasy Point Prop Bet for Tuesday, Jan. 15: Hassan Whiteside Over/Under 35.5 Points
The Pick: Under (-120)
This is a bonus prop for today, in addition to John Collins over/under 18.5 points.
Whiteside offers great value in the Bucks-Heat game (8:00 p.m. ET). This line is massively off. In the FantasyLabs NBA Models, we have Whiteside projected for 28.3 fantasy points (FanDuel scoring).
In his past 10 games, he's exceeded 35.5 points just twice.
At 35.5, I’d bet it to -160. At -120, I’d bet it to 32.5.
