It’s a light night on the hardcourt with just four games on the NBA schedule, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty of betting value to be found in the player prop markets.
I’ve found my three favorite for today, which include Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray continuing his epic comeback in a matchup with the Knicks.
That and more NBA picks for Tuesday, March 24, below.

Prop #1: Brandon Miller Over 3.5 threes made
The Charlotte Hornets' Brandon Miller has been letting it fly from downtown, and there’s no reason to think he’s going to stop in tonight’s matchup against the Sacramento Kings.
Miller is a big reason there’s been so much buzz around the Hornets. He’s shooting nearly 50% from three-point range on 7.8 attempts per game over his last 15 games. He has drained four or more threes in three straight games, and eight times over this 15-game stretch.
Now, he gets a matchup against a Kings team that allows the second-highest three-point shooting percentage in the NBA.

Prop #2: Dejounte Murray Over 16.5 Points
With everyone healthy, the New Orleans Pelicans aren’t your typical projected lottery team. In fact, they’ve won six of their last nine, going 8-1 ATS.
The return of Dejounte Murray has been a big part of that. Murray is putting up 18.7 points, 6.2 assists, and 5.1 rebounds in the 10 games since he’s been back, and I’m betting he keeps getting buckets tonight against the New York Knicks.
The Knicks allow the most points per game to opposing guards and rank 22nd in opponent made threes per game.
Murray’s point total is a modest 16.5, a number he’s topped in four of his last five games.

Prop #3: Collin Gillespie Over 4.5 assists
It has been the March of dimes for Collin Gillespie. The Phoenix Suns’ guard has been racking up the assists this month, and he’s going to keep that going in tonight’s matchup against the Denver Nuggets.
Gillespie has handed out 5.3 assists per game over 12 games this month, topping 4.5 eight times during that period.
The Nuggets' ability to prevent buckets has been suspect all season and enters this game ranked 21st in defensive rating. One way to really burn them is by making the extra pass. Denver also ranks 21st in opponent assists per possession.
