Spurs vs. 76ers
Victor Wembanyama King of the Court
Our "King of Value" for tonight is Victor Wembanyama.
The 76ers will be without Joel Embiid in tonight's matchup, which certainly bodes well for Wemby in this spot, with the Sixers not having much depth at the center position behind Andre Drummond.
Wembanyama is dealing with some personal off-the-court issues right now, so it's tough to say whether or not he's in the right headspace entering tonight's game.
However, this should be a relatively fast-paced matchup, and Wemby could go nuclear on any given night. So, all things equal, I'm expecting a big game from Wembanyama tonight.
Pick: Victor Wembanyama King of the Court
Thunder vs. Bulls
Josh Giddey King of the Court
By Kyle Murray
Our "King of Fun" for tonight is Josh Giddey, as we try to target one of the less popular names on the board.
Giddey recorded a triple-double in his latest outing, as he filled up the stat sheet with 20 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists against the Bucks a few days ago.
Clearly, Giddey can erupt for 45+ PRA in any given game, but figuring out when he's going to do it is the tricky part.
For those of you interested in a "narrative angle," Giddey will be facing his former team in the Thunder tonight, so his motivation level should be high.
The Thunder are also on cruise control at the moment.
We've been seeing the Thunder expand their rotation much deeper than usual over the last few weeks, consistently rolling in big waves of substitutions — which could also soften the matchup for Giddey in this spot.
Pick: Josh Giddey King of the Court
Pelicans vs. Lakers
Luka Doncic King of the Court
By Matt Moore
Once again, Luka Doncic will be our "King of Chalk" tonight.
We are late in the season, so everything is little bit messy.
However, Luka's Points + Rebounds + Assists prop line still tops the entire board board by a buffer of 7.5 PRA.
Doncic will likely be the most popular choice in the market. So, if he wins, the payout will be relatively small compared to rest of the choices on the board.
But, money is money. Value is value.
There's no shame in taking the obvious choice with Luka here.
Pick: Luka Doncic King of the Court
