Giannis Antetokounmpo NBA Props & Picks | Tuesday, Jan. 3
Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 33.5 Points
We’re not anxious to go higher than 33.5 points in spite of Antetokounmpo’s current form. Be sure to check the top NBA betting sites for the most updated odds and lines.
Betting on a 34-point outing isn’t too risky given his recent run of play, in which he’s averaging 38 points on 55.3 % shooting (last six games). Khris Middleton remains out, placing more of the load on Giannis’ shoulders. Over bettors may need every bucket and free throw, but the Bucks also need their talisman to halt their recent slide – five losses in six games.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 12.5 Rebounds
We’re remaining aggressive with another lofty figure. As of now, DraftKings Sportsbook is offering plus-money on the Over. Remember, though, odds fluctuate leading into the tip-off.
The Wizards shot 53.2% against the Bucks in Sunday’s meeting, a performance they’ll be hard-pressed to repeat. The Bucks are a top five defense based on points allowed and defensive efficiency, and Antetokounmpo has been keen to clean the glass with at least 20 boards in his last two games.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Under 5.5 Assists
Bettors who want to wager on Giannis’ assists props should poke around for the best numbers. The odds on Antetokounmpo staying Under 5.5 assists (FanDuel) are short (-150). That may be shorter than conservative bettors prefer. Other books, however, are setting the number at 4.5 dimes with the Over accompanied by similarly short odds.
Antetokounmpo is certainly capable of collecting six helpers, but we’re betting on him staying Under that number. He hit the mark in only two of his last 10 games, and it’s reasonable to consider that he may be tasked with more scoring with Middleton sidelined.
