So a hot start to the season it's safe to say. I always like the early stages because the bookies' props are largely based on last season with only relatively slight adjustments for any team changes/potential major improvements to certain players, so it's a good time to take advantage. Just the one for today which I think is a good example of just that^.
Thunder @ Pacers - Chet Holmgren over 17.5 points
Holmgren is someone I expect to make a bit of a leap this year. He's averaged 15 or 16 ppg over his first couple of seasons in the league but he will ultimately end up well into the 20s, and I would not be surprised if he ends this season right around the 20-mark. Early in the season, it may be even higher given the absence of Jalen Williams, OKC's second most prolific scorer. With him gone, Holmgren is the clear number two at the offensive end of the floor and will be required to shoulder a bigger load until he returns, and that's only furthered tonight with a number of other rotational players set to miss. Adding to that is the fact that the Pacers are going to be short-handed in the front court this season after losing Myles Turner in the off-season, and Holmgren's length will likely cause them plenty of problems. If he shoots like he did on opening night when he had 28 points he'll fly past this, but even if his stroke isn't as pure he should still get enough looks nearer the rim to put up 20+.
