DP’S PLAYER PROP
2020/21 SEASON RECORD: 75-49
Expert NBA Player Props Analyst, Daniel Parisi, gives his best daily prop.
NEW YORK @ INDIANA
Julius walks into this season no different to the season just past, a genuine boom-or-bust type of guy.
In his two games last season against the Pacers, he combined for 6 of 23 – returning an average of 12.5 points.
In both games, he surpassed 30 minutes, in which were hotly contested – so a blowlout was not the cause for such a poor return.
The Pacers are a tight defensive unit, and I believe the new ‘Nate’ will carry over the simple principles they executed as a team on the defensive side of the ball.
Sabonis can cause another problems on the floor, in the paint, whilst Turner is going to make you work hard for every straight line drive. So this prop comes down to – how well can Julius shoot it beyond 15-feet, and can he create enough space off the dribble to give himself every chance to score?…. my guess no.
