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, January 25th.

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.
Kentavius Caldwell-Pope OVER 1.5 Three-Pointers Made - I'll start tonight off with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope's three-pointers prop. KCP has been hitting this number at a fantastic rate. While he's only hit this number in two of his last five, he's knocked down 2+ threes in seven of his last ten and at a 64% clip on the season. While the Clippers rank 7th in three-pointers allowed and 4th in 3PT% allowed, they do struggle against the SF position, allowing +0.14 three-pointers over the league average to the position. I see decent value on this prop, as I have KCP slated for 2.09 threes made tonight.
Reggie Jackson OVER 16.5 Points - On the other side of this game we have Reggie Jackson. We get solid value early on here as most sportsbooks have this line at 17.5 as I'm typing this. Jackson has hit this number in just five of his last ten but has cashed this number in four straight and at a 57% clip on the year. They do defend the point guard position well though, allowing -0.58 points under the league average to point guards this season. Despite this, I have Jackson slated for 17.64 points tonight. I would fade this at the Vegas number of 17.5 but have no problem taking this here with the extra point handicap.
Nikola Jokic OVER 44.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists - This is probably my favorite play of the night, as we're getting not one but two points handicapped compared to sportsbook lines as I'm typing this. Jokic has also hit this number in four straight, as well as seven of his last ten and at a 68% clip on the year. While we do have to worry about a blowout factor, I'm not too concerned as the Pistons rank 20th in center efficiency, and allow +0.34 points + rebounds + assists over the league average to the position. It's important to factor in that the Pistons rank 30th in rebound rate, and are bottom tier in points, rebounds, and assists allowed. I love this number and this is probably my favorite PrizePicks play tonight. Lock this in with the "Taco Tuesday" special, mix in the props above and below and work from there! Good luck!
Other Recommendations - Marcus Smart OVER 4.5 Assists, Aaron Gordon OVER 2.5 Assists, Dorian Finney-Smith OVER 4.5 Rebounds, Bradley Beal OVER 4.5 Rebounds
Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
