Zach Thompson breaks down his best player prop bets for Saturday's NBA matchup between the Orlando Magic and the Miami Heat. The Heat are 4.5-point home favorites with a total of 237.5 points. Thompson highlights props for Magic guard Jalen Suggs, Heat forward Nikola Larsson, and Heat center Bam Adebayo.

Why it matters

This is an important Eastern Conference matchup between two teams jockeying for playoff position. The Magic have won six straight, while the Heat have won seven in a row, so both squads are playing well heading into this in-state rivalry game. Prop bets can provide value opportunities for bettors looking to capitalize on the action.

The details

Thompson recommends taking the over on Jalen Suggs' points prop, as the Magic guard has been playing well with key teammates out and should benefit from the Heat's up-tempo pace. He also likes the under on Nikola Larsson's points, rebounds and assists (PRA) prop, as Larsson's usage typically dips when the Heat's other key players are healthy. On the flip side, Thompson believes da Silva of the Magic can go over his PRA prop given his recent strong play. Finally, he suggests taking the under on Bam Adebayo's points, as the Magic defense should provide a tougher matchup than Adebayo's recent explosion against the Wizards.

What they’re saying

“Without Black and Wagner, Suggs has to carry more of the offense, and he has been doing that successfully for the last three games, averaging 18.2 points per game and going over this prop three times.”

“On the other side of the PRA over/under, I'll take da Silva to get at least 20 PRA, since he's been playing such a huge role for the Magic with Anthony Black on the sidelines.”

What’s next

The judge in the case will decide on Tuesday whether or not to allow Walker Reed Quinn out on bail.

The takeaway
