NBA Props for Monday Jan. 22: Hurry, back Murray

After an NFL playoff weekend, ending with that dramatic Buffalo loss (or Kansas City win, depending on how you bet it), it is hard to remember what happened on Friday. To recap, we went 2-2 but hit on our two better payoffs so it was some nice profit for the day overall. The key was that double-double that Jonas Valanciunas posted in a loss. That is a market to keep our eye on (there are 13 players averaging over 10 rebounds per game).

Today we have eight games on the NBA schedule but only one to really get excited about with Boston heading into Dallas to face Luka Doncic and the Mavs. Kristaps Porzingis might be up for this one against a former team.

NBA Props for Monday, Jan. 22

Immanuel Quickley Over 20.5 Points (+125) Alt Line

Quickley has been a little quiet of late. However, in just his second game with Toronto after the trade he ripped up Memphis for 26 points on the road. That was a game in which Ja Morant and Marcus Smart both played too. He will not have as tough a defensive responsibility this evening and that frees him up to concentrate even more on his offense. Plus the Grizzlies are not going to be defending him any better with those absences. 

Dereck Lively II Over 8.5 Rebounds (+115) Alt Line

Dallas is hosting Boston tonight and Lively is going to be critical to staying in the game. Since coming back from missing a few games due to injury he has been very strong on the boards with 11 and 12 rebounds respectively in the last couple of games. The rookie's production keeps going up each month too.
