It’s a light night in the NBA, with just four games on the board, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty of value to be found in the player props market.
I’ve found my three favorite plays for the day, which include a Pacers player lighting up the scoreboard at Madison Square Garden, and De’Aaron Fox keeps dishing out the dimes against the Lakers in La La Land.
Find those and more NBA picks for Tuesday, February 10, below.

Prop #1: Aaron Nesmith Over 2.5 made threes
Last year’s Eastern Conference Finals, where the Indiana Pacers defeated the New York Knicks 4-2, feels like a different timeline.
Injuries and trades have made the Pacers roster mostly unrecognizable, while the Knicks look ready to return to the dance after winning nine of their last 10.
But the Knicks still have some flaws, including a perimeter defense that ranks 21st in opponent 3-point makes and 23rd in opponent 3-point attempts per game.
Aaron Nesmith has been hot shooting the 3-ball, shooting 51.4% from deep and draining three or more treys in five of his last seven.

Prop #2: Mark Williams Over 11.5 points
The Dallas Mavericks have lost seven in a row and now head to the desert to take on the Phoenix Suns.
One of the Mavericks' biggest issues this season is their lack of interior presence, which has been made even worse after trading Anthony Davis.
Dallas is dead last in the NBA in opponent points in the paint per game. That has me looking at Suns center Mark Williams.
The big man is averaging 13.4 points over his last eight, and this is a great matchup for him.

Prop #3: De'Aaron Fox Over 5.5 assists
De’Aaron Fox has been dishing out the dimes, and I’m betting he crushes another assists prop tonight when the San Antonio Spurs visit the Los Angeles Lakers.
Fox has averaged 7.7 assists per game over his last seven games, and he’s recorded at least seven in six of those. Now, he gets a great matchup against the Lakers.
L.A. is playing the second half of a back-to-back, and defense hasn’t been the Lakers' calling card. L.A. ranks 22nd in defensive rating and 25th in opponent assists per possession.
Fox shouldn’t have a problem topping 5.5 assists in this one.
