De'Aaron Fox, Victor Oladipo, the Sixers and the Warriors star in Fats Baller's Saturday NBA prop bets

Nuggets at KINGS 5:05 pm EST, Nets at SIXERS 8:05 pm, Spurs at ROCKETS 8:05 pm, Warriors at MAVERICKS 8:35 pm

Fats Baller

Pulled my Kevin Durant bet when he didn't start. Should have pulled the Raptors Under 117.5 also. Oh well. 1-2. LaMelo Ball's career high made for an easy win. Cody Zeller's disappearance led to a defeat.

Saturday picks

I'd love to have bet the Trail Blazers at the Knicks but it violates a new Fats rule. Never bet a 1 pm game.

The Nuggets backcourt is banged up and De'Aaron Fox is coming off two double-doubles. Let's go for three.

No Kyrie or KD for the Nets. Sucker bet? Maybe. When the Blazers played the Sixers without Dame or CJ, they crushed them.

For the Rockets, Christian Wood is out, John Wall is questionable. It's Oladipo time.

The Mavericks are struggling and the Warriors have been getting a fair amount out of not much. If someone besides Steph Curry can shoot, they make this number.

All wagers and returns based on $10. Please check game time lineups before wagering.

Nuggets at KINGS 5:05 pm EST, Nets at SIXERS 8:05 pm, Spurs at ROCKETS 8:05 pm, Warriors at MAVERICKS 8:35 pm

3-pointers: De'Aaron Fox (Kings) double-double +260 (returns $36.00)

2-pointers: Sixers -4.5 Over Nets and Under 236.5 points +250 (returns $35.00)

Free throws: Victor Oladipo (Rockets) Over 21.5 points -103 (returns $19.80)

Steals: Warriors Over 114.5 points -114 (returns $18.60)

Friday Results

Winners:

2-pointers: LaMelo Ball (Hornets) Over 26.5 points, rebounds assists -104 (returns $19.60) LaMelo had a career high and went 34-4-8 for a 46 PRA.


Losers:

3-pointers: Cody Zeller (Hornets) double-double +150 (returns $25.00) Zeller was humming along with 6 points and 7 boards in 22 minutes and then he never got back in the game.

Steals: Raptors Under 117.5 points -113 (returns $18.90) I need to create a program to figure out how many points to add a to a team for playing the Nets. The Raptors put up 67 in the first half en route to a 123-117 win.


Canceled:

Free throws: Kevin Durant (Nets) Over 27.5 points -110 (returns $19.10) Durant didn't start due to Covid protocols so I pulled the bet. Then he came in. Then he left and didn't come back. What a mess.

$30 wagered (1-2), $19.60 returned.

Day 41: -$10.40

Total: -$154.85 (82-105 off 187 $10 wagers)
