Sleeper.com NBA DFS Prop Picks - Over/Under Props for Friday, November 17

Sleeper NBA DFS prop picks for November 17, 2023. Use Jake's NBA over/under props recommendations to win money on Sleeper.

Welcome to our Sleeper NBA DFS prop picks for Friday, November 17. Friday kicks off a massive weekend with 11 tournament games and already, we see exposable matchups like Giannis Antetokounmpo versus the Hornets' frontcourt and New York versus Washington. The Knicks don’t convert at a high rate, but they are among the league leaders in field goal attempts. The Wizards' bad defense plays right into that weakness so it's time to load up on Knicks shooters. Outside of that, the Spurs will likely struggle to contain the Kings, and the Nuggets versus Pelicans has game-of-the-night potential.

Sleeper offers some of the best and easiest-to-win NBA DFS games in the industry. Sleeper DFS works just like regular player prop betting -- there are no large-field tournaments to get lost in. You're not playing against other people; you're just playing against the projections. Here are some of our favorite NBA prop picks for Friday’s 11-game slate.

Announcement: We have two awesome new Props Optimizers for the NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, and NCAA! The PrizePicks Optimizer and Prop Bets Optimizer are both available in our new Props Premium Package, which includes exclusive access to RotoBaller's VIP Discord chat rooms for props and betting.

NBA DFS Props - Over/Under Picks for Friday, November 17

Domantas Sabonis OVER 26.5 Points+Assists

Domantas Sabonis has been dominating the stat sheet every game with or without De'Aaron Fox. Although he’s more of a rebounder, Sabonis hit this over in the last four games, and playing alongside another capable scorer like Fox directly influences his assist potential. Since nearly everyone understands tournament rules now, there’s more motivation to score and the Spurs lack a defensive paint presence.

Sabonis hit 40 points + rebounds + assists in his last four games as well, so feel free to chase the extra 14 stats he needs to hit that over if you aren’t risking it on just points and assists. There won’t be a desperate need for rebounding against the Spurs, but with Sabonis just being Sabonis, he’s naturally going to chase a triple-double when the matchup is there.

Cade Cunningham OVER 3.5 Turnovers

The Pistons are reliant on Cade Cunningham’s offense and the Cavaliers personnel knows how to force turnovers. Even though Cunningham is likely to have a productive game, he’s turnover-prone through sheer usage. If he’s lucky, he’ll line up against Max Strus, but Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen fill defensive roles as two anchors that cover enough space to shrink already small passing lanes.

He’s turned the ball over three times or more in all but one game this season and the Pistons are on the verge of losing their 10th straight. As close as they’ve kept games, Detroit just doesn’t have enough scorers for Cunningham to sacrifice any of his touches just yet.

Jalen Brunson OVER 2.5 3PM

There will be a ton of shots coming from the Knicks as usual. The only difference will be how contested they are. Usually, New York struggles to convert most of their attempts, but playing the worst defense in the league has some clear and obvious benefits.

When your backcourt consists of whatever defense Tyus Jones and Jordan Poole throw at you, you’re going to be good for at least four or five wide-open attempts from three. Brunson hits two threes on a bad night and the chance he has an off-night in an ‘In-Season’ tournament game just as the Knicks are starting to find a groove is highly unlikely.
