Free NBA Props Friday March 18, 2022

Mavericks vs. 76ers, 7:00PM ET

Some doubt lingers over the status of Joel Embiid heading into Philly's tilt against the Mavs tonight, but one thing isn't in doubt: Luka Doncic has found his touch. It's been a long year for the huge talent, but he's now stringing together consistent performances, having scored 30+ points in six of his last eight outings. The Sixers have been lacking on defense recently, going from a top-10 defensive unit to now giving up more than 6 points more than the average NBA team does to their opponents. Doncic has the opportunity to pounce.

BET: Luka Doncic 30+ points (-136)

Wizards vs. Knicks, 7:30PM ET

RJ Barrett's assist line has been a favorite play of ours at Dimers over the past week or so - with varying results - but for as long as we're getting plus money, we're playing the odds. Barrett has hit 4+ assists in seven of his last nine games and lands in a great spot against the Wizards who have been super relaxed on defense as of late, ranking 4th-worst in the league for opponent points scored over their last 10 matches.

BET: RJ Barrett OVER 3.5 assists (+120)

Pelicans vs. Spurs, 8:30PM ET

Keldon Johnson is emerging as one of the stars of the Spurs' exciting young core. Over his last two games he's hit point totals of 22 and 37, with a notable uptick in shot volume over his last six games (18 shots per game compared with a season tally of 13.1). Take advantage of this line because you're not likely to see it as low after a few more stellar performances.

BET: Keldon Johnson OVER 19.5 points (-104)

🔥 Betting Preview: Pelicans vs. Spurs
