4 Top Player Prop Bets for NBA, Friday, February 4th, 2022

The NBA season is churning right along and we are coming up on the All-Star break here soon. We have 9 great games on top for Friday, which makes for a lot of great player prop bets to place.

The goal is to aim for players who have been on hot streaks in certain statistics and have great matchups to take advantage of. If everything goes according to plan, we should be able to head into the weekend with a nice little boost to our wallets.

With that being said, let’s get right into our top player prop bets that you can for tonight.

Gary Trent has been on a nice little tear for the Raptors and is in a great position to continue that tonight. The Raptors will be hosting the Atlanta Hawks, who have not been able to stop scoring shooting guards so far this season.

The Hawks give up 23.79 points per game to shooting guards, which is second most in the NBA. The only other team who gives up more points than the Hawks to SGs is the Kings. The Kings are off tonight so we can go to our next best option here.

Trent has averaged 18.1 points per game this year for the Raptors, but lately he has been kicking it up a notch. He only scored 16 points against a tough Bulls team, but he scored 31+ points per game in the previous 5 games before that.

Gary Trent Jr. is really the youngest player to drop 30+ points and 5 threes in five straight games.

He should be able to bounce back tonight against a suspect Hawks’ defense against shooting guards. You can bump his point total a little lower if you want to play it safe at 17+ (-250) or 19+ (-114). Or you could take some extra risk and go even higher than 21+ points for some awesome profit.

The Cavs and the Hornets will be facing off tonight, which should mean a big game for the Cleveland bigs. Lauri Markkannen will be out for this game, which means Jarrett Allen, Evan Mobley, and Kevin Love should be in for solid production.

I like all of the Cleveland bigs tonight actually. I like Allen for his rebounding, Mobley for points and rebounds as well, and I think Love is in for a big night off the bench as well.

The Hornets have struggled against bigs so far this season.

Allen to get 16 rebounds again in this game has some insane odds as well. If he repeats his success, 16+ rebounds calls for +915 odds from BetOnline.

Allen has been averaging 16.0 points per game to go along with 10.7 rebounds, which means he should be in for a very nice double double tonight.

Since Allen nearly averages 11 rebounds per game in general, it would make a whole lot of sense if he was able to get that and some more against the league’s worst team in that category.

I think Kyrie Irving is in for a stellar night tonight. Irving is one of the best scorers in the league when he is at his best, and he certainly has been solid as of late. The Nets managed to walk themselves back on their talks of not having Kyrie as a part time player, but he has been huge for them since coming back.

Kevin Durant’s injury is a big reason why the Nets aren’t doing as well as they can. He was looking like the favorite for MVP, but his long term absence basically destroys that. Irving only playing away games isn’t a bad thing either, as he can keep his legs fresh in that way.

Irving is averaging 23.6 points per game this year and scored 26 on the Suns and 32 on the Warriors two and three games ago. He had an off night against the Kings last time out with just 14 points, but he should be able to bounce back here.

Irving played the Jazz just once in the past two years, but he went off the last time they played. Irving scored 29 points to go with 6 rebounds and 5 assists in a dominating 130-96 win last January.

Jokic is always capable of destroying the box score every night and tonight is no different. He is going up against a flimsy Pelicans defense, who gives up the 4th most assists to centers in the league.

You could also check out what the best NBA betting sites have to offer, because there could be some profitable triple double bets for Jokic tonight.

These 4 props are looking amazing for tonight and should all be very capable of hitting. These players all have great matchups and their recent play has been great. That should be the recipe for a perfect storm and a great way to head into the weekend.
