Let’s tip off the new week of NBA action with some slam dunk winners in the player prop markets.
My best NBA player props include Zion Williamson dominating the paint against the Mavericks, and Victor Wembanyama continuing his block party when he travels to L.A. to take on the Clippers.

Prop #1: Cam Spencer Over 11.5 Points
The tank is real for the Memphis Grizzlies. Ty Jerome has been the team’s last reliable scorer. But he hasn’t played back-to-back games since coming out of the All-Star break. And he played last time out.
So, who’s left? Give me Cam Spencer in this matchup against the Chicago Bulls. Spencer is averaging 13.3 points and shooting 47.3% from three.
The Bulls don’t play much defense, ranking 23rd in defensive rating and 21st in opponent effective field goal percentage.
Spencer has a point total of 11.5. A number he’s topped in four of his last five games.

Prop #2: Zion Williamson Over 21.5 Points
You’d think a team like the New Orleans Pelicans would be in full tank mode. But Dejounte Murray is back, and Zion Williamson is consistently playing.
So, the Pels don’t look like the teams at the bottom of the West, like tonight’s opponent, the Dallas Mavericks.
Injuries have hampered the Mavs, but it's their interior presence that has really been hurt, ranking last in opponent points in the paint per game.
Williamson has a point total of 21.5 and is averaging 22.7 points over his last 11 full games and has topped this number in both of his games against the Mavs.

Prop #3: Victor Wembanyama Over 3.5 Blocks
Victor Wembanayama has been the favorite to win the NBA Defensive Player of the Year for a while now, but he’s taken his effort at that end of the floor to the next level.
The San Antonio Spurs star has been having his own block party, averaging 4.3 blocks per game over 12 games since coming out of the All-Star break, blocking four or more shots 10 times over that stretch.
His block prop for tonight’s game against the Los Angeles Clippers is sitting at 3.5 with the Over at a tantalizing plus-money price.
