The 2021 NBA season is underway and that means our new friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best and easiest to win NBA DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.
PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For NBA, Single Stat consists of points, rebounds, assists, three-pointers made, and free throws made, in which you determine if the player in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Today, we will look at some single-stat scores for tonight, February 1st.

Single Stat NBA Totals
Editor's Note: Prize Picks prop totals are not always available first thing in the morning, so check back during the day as other props may be added during the day.
Mo Bamba OVER 9.5 Points - I'll start tonight's picks off with Mo Bamba's points prop. Bamba has scored at least ten points in four of his last five, and at a 60% clip on the season. The Bulls rank 20th in center efficiency but allow -0.19 points per game under the league average to centers. With that said though, I have Bamba projected for 11.1 points tonight, so we're getting really solid value on this prop.
Jrue Holiday OVER 4.5 Rebounds - Another really solid prop here, as Holiday has hit this number in four of five, nine of ten, and at a 59% clip on the year. The matchup is tough, as the Wizards rank 9th in point guard efficiency and allow -0.3 rebounds per game under the league average against point guards. However, my early projections have Holiday projected for 5.6 rebounds tonight, so you're getting solid value on this play as well.
DeMar DeRozan OVER 36.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists - The Bulls will be without guards Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso once again tonight. DeRozan has hit this number in six straight and has hit this number in eight of 11 games without Lonzo and Caruso active. Running the four-position proves to be beneficial for DeRozan here, as the Magic rank 23rd in power forward efficiency. My early projections have DeRozan at 39.9 PRA tonight, and this is probably my favorite play of the night.
Other Recommendations - Khris Middleton OVER 19.5 Points, Franz Wagner OVER 2.5 Assists, Mo Bamba OVER 6.5 Rebounds, Kyle Kuzma OVER 33.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
