Best NBA prop bets for Thunder vs. Clippers (Jalen Williams keeps on rolling)

The Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Clippers are both fighting for playoff position in the West on Tuesday night.

I like the Thunder to cover the spread in this game, but I’m also interested in the prop market, especially for Thunder rookie sensation Jalen Williams.

Here are three prop bet plays to make for this late-night Western Conference battle:

Thunder vs. Clippers best NBA prop bets

  • Jalen Williams OVER 14.5 Points
  • Josh Giddey OVER 0.5 3-Pointers Made
  • Marcus Morris Sr. UNDER 1.5 3-Pointers Made

Jalen Williams OVER 14.5 Points

Williams has been on fire as of late, pushing his season average for points per game to 13.5. He’s cleared 14.5 points in nine of his last 10 games, averaging 20.1 points per game in his last 11 contests.

This number for Williams has actually dropped after being set around 15.5, so I’m going to jump on the train against a Clippers team that has been susceptible to some high-scoring games, allowing at least 113 points in five of their eight games this month.

Williams has been too consistent to fade him after one down performance.

Josh Giddey OVER 0.5 3-Pointers Made

Josh Giddey doesn’t take a ton of 3s, but he’s making them at a high clip right now.

The second-year guard has made at least one shot from deep in nine of his last 10 games, and he’s shooting 42.9 percent from 3 on 2.8 attempts per game over that stretch.

I’d love to see Giddey hoisting over 3 shots from deep per game for this prop, but regardless I’m going to ride the hot hand against the Clippers.

Marcus Morris Sr. UNDER 1.5 3-Pointers Made

Marcus Morris Sr. is usually a reliable shooter for the Clippers, but he’s failed to hit multiple shots from deep in nine of his last 10 games.

Over that stretch, Morris is taking just 2.7 shots from 3 per game, so there is very little margin for error for him to go OVER this number.

On the season, Morris is shooting a respectable 37.4 percent from deep, but if the volume isn’t there, he’s a fade candidate in this game.

Game odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.
