Five Player Prop Bets for Suns-Jazz

PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns are in search of their first three-game winning streak, and if betting experts have any indication of how tonight will play out, Kevin Durant will be a major factor against the Utah Jazz.

Five player prop bets for tonight, three of which belong to KD:

Devin Booker Over 40.5 points + rebounds + assists

Eric Rosales, Covers.com: "Utah can match scoring with the Suns — both are tied for ninth in the NBA with 115.2 points per game, but the Jazz D is a sour note. They surrender 120.5 points per game, which is the fifth worst mark in the NBA. That presents a serious opportunity for Book.

"With Bradley Beal’s back forcing him out of action again, Booker will do much of the heavy lifting with KD, and will do it at a high level.

"It hasn’t been a problem so far, as Booker has topped his points-rebounds-assists total set at 40.5 on Sunday in three of four games, missing the fourth by a single point, rebound or assist. Look for him to deliver another gem."

Kevin Durant Over 30.5 points

Chinmay Vaidya, DraftKings: "Durant has gone over this line in three of his last four games, averaging 33.8 points per contest while shooting 56.1% overall and a whopping 71.4% from deep. That efficiency is unlikely to end against the Jazz, who rank 25th in opponent field goal percentage and 26th in points allowed per game. Look for the Suns star to hit the over on his points prop once again."

Jordan Clarkson 25+ Points

Jim Turvey, Action Network: "The Jazz collect 4% less of the potential defensive rebounds, while teams shoot2% better at the rim with him off the court, per pbpstats.com.

"This is great news for the Suns, who managed to win on Friday despite Clarkson going for 37. While I don't see Clarkson going for 37 again, he has — despite the lack of positional overlap — seen his minutes (by four) and field goal attempts (by eight!) skyrocket since Kessler went down to injury.

"Clarkson is a streaky player, in terms of how well he scores and his usage and field goal attempts. When he's on a run, he gets up shots as fast as any player in the league. As such, I'll be looking toward his points and threes props."

Kevin Durant Over 4.5 Assists

Jason Radowitz, Oddschecker.com: "Kevin Durant took 22 shots against the Utah Jazz on Friday. He scored 38 points, with nine rebounds and nine assists in 33 minutes.

"While he's one of the best scorers in the NBA, Durant has been surprisingly consistent with his assists. He's earned at least five assists in 58% of games and in four of his last five games.

"Durant has even hit this line in seven of his last ten games and has had plenty of success against the Jazz, even dating back to the previous season regarding assists. Take his Over."

Kevin Durant First Basket Scorer

John Supowitz, BettingPros: "The Suns and Jazz played a thriller the other night, with Phoenix coming out on top 131-128. No doubt, with the lack of defense these two teams play, we will see another high-scoring affair.

"The Suns have done very well at grabbing the first basket this season with the fifth-highest percentage, while the Jazz have not done so well with the third-lowest. You would believe the Suns easily grabbed the first basket in their last matchup, and you’d be right because Kevin Durant hit a three in the game’s first possession. In fact, Durant leads the team with three first baskets, so this is a great play on the percentages because the Jazz have allowed the most first baskets to forwards this season."
