Lance Roberson presents his Fantasy Score NBA DFS prop picks on PrizePicks for Friday, February 23. Use his NBA prop picks recommendations to win money on PrizePicks.

The 2023-2024 NBA season is here, and our friends over at PrizePicks still have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power or flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.

Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the industry's best and easiest-to-win NBA DFS games. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.

PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For the NBA, Single Stat consists of points, rebounds, assists, three-pointers made, and free throws made, in which you determine if the player in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Today, we will look at some single-stat scores for tonight, February 23.

Single Stat NBA Totals - DFS Prop Picks

Editor's Note: Prize Picks prop totals are not always available first thing in the morning, so check back during the day, as other props may be added during the day.

Anthony Edwards OVER 26.5 Points - For all the bettors who watched Anthony Edwards shamelessly use his left hand for shooting during All-Star Weekend, you can rest easy knowing it's over. With the struggling Milwaukee Bucks coming into the Target Center to face the No.1 seed Minnesota Timberwolves, Edwards must not treat Giannis Antetokounmpo like a joke, similar to the All-Star Weekend.

As both teams come fully rested, I expect a high-scoring affair, with Edwards taking full advantage of the team ranked 17th in defensive rating. The line is set at 26.5 points for Edwards; mash the over.

Trae Young OVER 23.5 Points - On the heels of All-Star Weekend, with ample rest, Trae Young faces the Toronto Raptors on the second night of a back-to-back sequence. As both teams fall in the bottom fifth of the league defensively, I expect many fast-break opportunities and, more importantly, three-point bombs from Young. No one on the Raptors has an answer for the elusive game of the former Oklahoma Sooner. Consider the generously low line of 23.5 points a gift; I'd take the over before the powers that be kick it up a few notches.

Rudy Gobert OVER 1.5 Blocks - Despite the grief Rudy Gobert received over the past four years from media and fellow players, the French native continues to produce at an elite level defensively, currently anchoring the best defense in the Association. Lining up against the formidable frontcourt of Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez, Gobert has plenty of chances to absorb their shot attempts, especially as the latter isn't playing up to par this season. Averaging 2.1 blocks per contest, Gobert's probability of covering the over on 1.5 rejections bodes rather high for the Defensive Player of the Year lead candidate.

Nikola Jokic UNDER 9.5 Assists - Nikola Jokic made history after Thursday's match vs. the Washington Wizards, as he joined LeBron James and Russell Westbrook to record a triple-double vs. every team in the NBA. While betting the under on anything Jokic seems foolish, the Denver Nuggets face another lottery-bound team in the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday evening, which makes for an excellent opportunity for Jokic to ease up as he plays a second game in as many nights.

For the first time this season, I recommend taking the under on Jokic assists, with the line currently at 9.5.
