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, March 6.
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.
D'Angelo Russell OVER 23.5 PTS+AST - D'Angelo Russell is finally the guard they needed him to be in 2015. Over the Los Angeles Lakers guard's last 10 games, an average of 20.5 points and 6.4 assists blossomed from the team's recent 7-3 stretch. Lakers fans and bettors prone to pushing the over are salivating for tonight's matchup between the Lakers and Sacramento Kings.

The line for Russell's combined points and assists against the Kings is 23.5, which he's surpassed in four of the Lakers' previous five games. Of all the games to take the over, two teams that ranked in the bottom seven defensively spanning the past 10 contests take the cake.
James Harden OVER 18.5 Points - Depending on when the Los Angeles Clippers land in Texas for their contest against the Houston Rockets, as the 2018 MVP infamously achieved jersey-in-the-rafters treatment at a local gentlemen's club, I envision James Harden producing a noteworthy homecoming performance. On a serious note, Harden averaged 20.8 points over his last five games, recently scoring 29 in the Clippers' heart-breaking loss against the Milwaukee Bucks.

As the Clippers' big three cleared the injury report, Harden is the prime player to take over on Wednesday's reunion with his longest-tenured NBA home. Wednesday's line for Harden points sits at 18.5 points, which I envision he surpasses emphatically for the Houston crowd.
Ayo Dosunmu OVER 2.5 3-PT Made - For Wednesday's edition of "demon" prop bet (a prop bet multiplier), Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu plays the part. Success comes quite often, in my experience, trusting Dosunmu to cover the over. As the demon line sits at 2.5 three-point shots made for Dosunmu, playing the lottery-bound Utah Jazz encourages ample opportunity for the young guard to cover the over once again.
In Dosunmu's previous five outings, the product of a shelved Zach LaVine recorded two games in which he surpassed the 2.5 three-point shot line. Admittedly, as this bet is a little risky, I understand the trepidation in taking the bait, but the extra money on the other side makes the gamble worth it; have faith in Dosunmu to cover the over.
Jalen Green UNDER 3.5 Assists - When I think of Jalen Green, visions of passing the ball don't come to mind. However, for a rather conservative line of 3.5 assists, Green's production hovers around such a number. The Rockets face the Clippers on Wednesday evening in what feels like an easy win for the Clippers. However, if the little brother to the Lakers has taught us anything, making such preconceived judgments typically leaves you with an egg on the face.
In Green's past five outings, he averaged 3.2 assists. Regardless of the Rockets-Clippers matchup outcome, I envision Green succumbing to the "hero" ball, leaving the young guard to cover the under on 3.5 assists.
