DP’S NBA PLAYER PROP
SEASON RECORD: 35-22
Expert NBA Player Props Analyst, Daniel Parisi, gives his best daily prop, exclusive to subscribers.
UTAH @ DENVER
Donovan Mitchell has been great as the starting PG, with Conley returning back from injury as a bench player.
Mitchell just had 31 points against the Spurs, and has cleared the 23.5 points line in 6 of his last 8.
Denver do a decent job of defending the point with Jamal Murray in the line-up however with him out, Will Barton is expected to start, which should make it interesting with him both defensively and playing a high usage offensive role.
Mitchell has been consistent and I expect him to tally 25+ against a short-handed Nuggets team.

The Hornets have ended an 8-game losing streak and look to win back-to-back games for the first time in 3 1/2 weeks tonight. The Hornets scored a 97-92 home win over the Knicks on Tuesday to end a slide that included 5 double-digit losses.
The Wizards have lost 6 of 8 and the last two have been poor defensively, allowing 150+ points in each. Washington fell 152-133 to the Hawks on Sunday and then were smashed 151-131 by Milwaukee even with Antetokounmpo (shoulder) out for the Bucks.

The 76ers have won 6 of their last 7 and got Embiid back in the lineup in a win over the Warriors on Tuesday. The 76ers are not the same team on the road and Embiid will try to provide a spark as they begin a 4-game trip tonight.
The Hawks will struggle to stop the 76ers with a leaky defense that allowed at least 130 points in 3-straight games.

The Celtics became one of 3 visiting teams to win in Miami with a 109-101 win over the Heat on Tuesday and have won 4 of 5 despite injury issues. They will look to keep rolling with whatever lineups they can put out tonight against the league-worst Warriors.
The Warriors began their 5-game east coast trip with a 115-104 loss at Philadelphia on Tuesday – their 4th straight loss and 14th in their last 15 games.

These two share the 3rd-best record in the West and meet for the first of 4 times over the final 35 games of the season.
The Jazz were great winning 19 of 21 games but their defense has suddenly gone missing in back-to-back losses against the Rockets (126-117 on Monday) and Spurs (127-120 on Wednesday).
Denver won 8 of 11 before a 104-96 road loss against the Grizzlies on Tuesday and the setback ended a stretch of 24 games of scoring 100+ points.
