Let’s gamble tonight, 10 NBA games on tap means lots of opportunity to bet on some glorious NBA player props. Tonight we have teams like the Lakers, Knicks, and the Celtics all with games, so let’s get after it.
Without further ado, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wyatt Wilburt and I will be your guide for all that is sports betting at Blitz. If you have followed any of my content on my Twitter or X , I’ve dabbled in posting plays here and there. Now, I will be bringing it to you in long-form as opposed to some screenshots from my phone. A win-win for everyone. Anyways, Friday is a loaded slate so we move.
Betting Picks for 2/28
Trey Murphy O 4.5 Assists (-122) on FanDuel
One of the most underrated players in the league gets a nice bounce-back game versus a slipping Phoenix Suns team. Funny enough, Trey Murphy and the Pelicans played Phoenix last night. Yes, the result was only one assist from Trey. However, this line still feels like a bargain as before last night, Murphy had hit this line in 7 out of his last 8 games. I’m willing to roll the dice on Murphy stepping up and dishing the ball better.
Ausar Thompson O 4.5 Rebounds (-110) on DraftKings
If you’ve been following hoops this season, the Pistons have gone from a perennial laughing stock to a legitimate playoff team. The Nuggets are on the second leg of a back-to-back after a tough game against the Bucks, the last thing they want to do is play a red-hot Detroit team. With this factored in, plus guys like Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart having to box out Jokic all night, I like the opportunity to snag a good chunk of boards for Ausar Thompson, who has been playing extremely well for Detroit since moving into the starting lineup this past month.
