NBA player props for Friday, Nov. 6
Jayson Tatum Over 7.5 rebounds (+102)
Donovan Mitchell Over 24.5 points (-121)
Walker Kessler Over 23.5 points + rebounds (-109)
Jayson Tatum Over 7.5 rebounds vs. Hornets (+102)
There's a possibility the Celtics start pulling away fairly early in this game as the Hornets will be without Kon Knueppel. Charlotte is also without Grant Williams and Moussa Diabate is questionable. Tatum has always been a solid rebounder and although he has gotten off to a bit of a slow start on the glass, this is a favorable matchup. The SportsLine props model has him at 8.6 boards on Friday.
Donovan Mitchell Over 24.5 points vs. 76ers (-121)
Mitchell has gone Over this line just once in his last five contests, but that one instance came on Wednesday against the Thunder. The Cavaliers guard will be motivated to snap his team's two-game skid and the opponent is a high-profile one in the 76ers, who have won five in a row. The SportsLine props model projects Mitchell for 25.1 points in this game.
Walker Kessler Over 23.5 points + rebounds (-109)
