NBA Player Props: Can Mikal Bridges Keep Up His Insane Scoring? (April 2)

Sunday’s main slate is an all-day affair, with high-EV NBA Bet Pro plays spanning from 1 p.m. ET to the night slate. Today we will cover NBA player props from all across the schedule; let’s dive into the best plays on NBA Bet Pro for Sunday, April 2.

Today’s Top NBA Player Props | April 2

3. Patrick Beverley Under 4.5 Rebounds (-148, BetRivers)

The Bulls are dealing with some key injuries in Alex Caruso and Javonte Green, but both are listed as probable, so the extra rebound opportunities are not going to be there for Beverley. He is only averaging 3.7 rebounds per game this year (though he has 5.3 per game with the Bulls), and he grabbed just one rebound in his lone game against the Grizzlies this season. With Andre Drummond also back in the lineup for the Bulls, NBA Bet Pro projects Chicago’s boards to flow through the big man. That is leading Beverley to a projection of just 4.1 rebounds today.

2. Mikal Bridges Under 28.5 Points (-115, PointsBet)

For everything Bridges has brought to Brooklyn since joining at the trade deadline, he is still averaging 27.5 points per game as a Net, a point below this line. This is despite dropping 40-plus in two of the last three. All told, he has hit this over 10 times in 22 games with Brooklyn, so he is staying under 29 more often than not as the lead scoring option. The matchup with the Jazz is a pace up on paper, but Utah will be without at least two of its top scorers and possible No. 1 Lauri Markkanen, and it will have elite rim protector Walker Kessler. All told, NBA Bet Pro only projects Bridges for 26.0 points today.

1. Dejounte Murray Under 5.5 Rebounds (-134, BetRivers)

Though he is averaging close to this line on the season, Murray is only grabbing 4.3 rebounds per game over his last 15, and he has gone under 5.5 in 12 of those 15. Plus, the Mavericks play at a deliberate pace, especially when Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving play together, so the rebounding opportunities will likely be significantly less than a typical Hawks game. NBA Bet Pro is projecting Murray for only 5.2 rebounds today, and this bet has the highest expected win rate of the top NBA player props of the slate (61%).
