Best Player Prop for Tonight’s Game
Given below are our top three picks from tonight’s games, as per odds on FanDuel.
Cade Cunningham to Score Over 25.5 Points: -118
Cade Cunningham is currently thriving as the Detroit Pistons’ offensive engine this season. He is averaging 27.1 points along with 6.0 rebounds, and 9.6 assists across 14 appearances so far. Cunningham has been shooting 44.4% from the field and 28.4% from the three-point range. He has been delivering solid performances on road as well, where he is averaging 26.9 points per game while shooting 49.0% from the field and 31.1% from beyond the arc.
Talking about the recent outings, the 2025 NBA All-Star has been dropping constant 20+ point performances in the last five games. In one recent gameplay, Cunningham came up with 46 points in 45 minutes of action. In fact, during the matchup against the Boston Celtics, Cunningham dropped 25 points while shooting 44.4% from the field and 40.0% from the deep.
Facing the Celtics with a 16th-ranked defense and a depleted roster, we can expect Cunningham to finish over 26 points.
LaMelo Ball Over 7.5 Assists: +100
LaMelo Ball has been dishing out 9.3 assists on an average through 10 games in the current season. In the last ten of the Hornets’ games, Ball has appeared in only four and averaged 8.5 assists, while has 9.0 assists per game at home. There have been three games thus far where he has recorded over 10 assists per game. Two of them include 13-assist games against the Orlando Magic and the Washington Wizards. Otherwise, in the recent five fixtures, he has been constantly recording seven or more assists in every contest.
This momentum and consistency scream for continuation against the New York Knicks.

Kel’el Ware to record O 11.5 Rebounds: +100
Kel’el Ware, the second-year Miami Heat center is recording 11.0 rebounds per game for the Miami Heat this season. In the last ten games, he has recorded 13.9 rebounds per game, while his record at home has been pretty solid too. On an average, Ware has grabbed 12.9 rebounds per game at Kaseya Center. In the last nine games, he has totally emerged as a rebounding force for the Miami Heat, who are currently on a five-game winning streak.
As a team, the Heat have the fourth best defensive rate in the league at 110.6, while they rank 25th in the league. The Bucks, on the other hand, have the 21st-best offensive rate at 114.3, as compared to their rivals’ 12th-best 116.0. Given these stats as well as Ware’s red-hot form, over 12 rebounds looks like a safe bet.
