NBC Sports Betting Best Bets

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) dabbles in the player prop market in this game: De’Aaron Fox Over 6.5 Assists (-110)
“De’aaron Fox has surpassed that number in four of the last five games. In that time, he has had 7.0 assists per game. match. In that span, he averaged 12.8 potential assists per game. The Grizzlies were the lone miss at the 3. The Grizzlies don’t give a ton of assists per game to point guards (17th). Now in a game totaling 237.5 and against a Nuggets team that allows the second most assists to PGs per game.”
