NBA Player Props & Picks: Bet Jarrett Allen and Killian Hayes on Friday (December 16)

NBA Player Props & Picks

Kings vs.

Pistons

Killian Hayes, Over 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists

With Cade Cunningham officially out for the season, Killian Hayes has slid into a lead guard role for the Pistons. The former seventh overall pick is averaging 21.7 PRA across his 17 starts thus far.

The combo guard is coming off his best game of the season, registering 40 PRA against the Hornets in an overtime win. He’ll get another plus matchup tonight against the Kings.

Sacramento is allowing the seventh-most PRA to opposing guards this season. Hayes likely will be matched up with De’Aaron Fox, which should bode well for the third-year guard offensively.

I like Hayes to build on his strong performance last game as I have him projected at 24 PRA.

Pick: Killian Hayes Over 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists | Play to Over 21.5 PRA

Pacers vs.

Cavaliers

Jarrett Allen, Over 25.5 Points + Rebounds

This line is a tick above Allen’s average of 24.5 combined points and rebounds. However, the Pacers are allowing the most points and second-most rebounds to opposing centers, making this a fantastic spot for him.

Pacers center Myles Turner frequently finds himself helping onto ball-handlers in the pick and roll. This should allow for Allen to find himself open on the roll or in position for easy offensive rebound opportunities. The Pacers allow 11.8 offensive rebounds per game – the fourth-most in the NBA.

Allen is only two for his last five on this line, but this is a great spot for him to produce. I have the All-Star projected at 28 combined points and rebounds.

Pick: Jarrett Allen Over 25.5 Points + Rebounds | Play to Over 26.5 P+R
