NBA Player Props Today - Best Donovan Mitchell Props | Pickswise

The Pickswise prop team is running hot with 5 straight W’s and a record of 6-2 to start April. Let’s dive into my best NBA player prop bet, while you can also check out our NBA picks for all 4 of today’s Games.

Donovan Mitchell, CLE, Over 21.5 points (-105)

Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.

Overnight lines can be extremely profitable in the NBA if sportsbooks do not limit you – especially if you find lines mispriced by particular books. At the time of publishing, DraftKings is offering the over of 21.5 points on Donovan Mitchell priced at -105. FanDuel opened their line at 22.5, priced at -125. That’s excellent value. 23.5 points is where I expect the rest of the sportsbooks to close this player prop.

It’s well known that Mitchell isn’t fully Healthy. He missed extended time with a knee injury last month and even sat out a Game already in April. But he played 38 minutes last Game and scored 24 points on 17 field goal attempts. The Cavaliers also play on Sunday again in Los Angeles, so we’ll see how they handle Mitchell on a back-to-back. Nonetheless, the Lakers are 4.5-point favorites against the Cavaliers. Ideally, we get 35 minutes from Mitchell and the same volume he’s seen with the Cavaliers starting five Healthy.

With just 5 Games left to play in the regular season, the Cavaliers have no time to take Games off. They sit just 1 Game back of the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference, while the Magic and Knicks are just 1 Game back of the Cavaliers.

I suggest playing this prop up to 22.5 points at -110. FanDuel looks well on its way to moving this prop to 23.5.
