There are just five games on the NBA’s schedule today, but still plenty of intriguing NBA player props to choose from.
My NBA picks target Donovan Clingan, Jayson Tatum, and Maxime Raynaud. Keep reading for the full breakdown.
Best NBA player props today
| Player | Pick |  |

 Donovan Clingan |
Record a double-double | -135 |
 Jayson Tatum |
Under 2.5 threes | +105 |
 Maxime Raynaud |
Under 10.5 rebounds | -130 |
Prop #1: Donovan Clingan to record a double-double
The Portland Trail Blazers are just barely clinging onto a play-in spot in the Western Conference, but Donovan Clingan is doing his best to bring his team to the promised land.
The sophomore center has logged 31 double-doubles this season — good for eighth-most in the NBA — and he enters Sunday with a double-double in each of his last six contests.
Clingan is averaging 15.5 points and 12.5 rebounds per game this month, so I don’t see him slowing down in a big game vs. the Denver Nuggets.

Prop #2: Jayson Tatum Under 2.5 threes
Jayson Tatum returned to the Boston Celtics lineup earlier this month following a 10-month rehab from an Achilles tendon rupture.
Unsurprisingly, the C’s star has not looked quite like himself since getting back on the court. He's shooting just 29.4% from 3-point range, well under his career average of 36.9%. He’s also made Under 2.5 threes in three of his last four games.
The Minnesota Timberwolves rank sixth in the league in threes allowed per game (12.5), so the treys won’t come easily for Tatum.

Prop #3: Maxime Raynaud Under 10.5 rebounds
In my second fade of the day, I’m targeting Sacramento Kings center Maxime Raynaud.
The rookie is averaging just 7.3 boards per game, so the line being set at 10.5 is a bit ambitious. Raynaud has also logged Under 10.5 rebounds in four of his last five contests.
The Brooklyn Nets are averaging just 84.6 field goal attempts per game — the third-fewest in the NBA.
