We did it, we made it to the end of the regular season. Tonight's the second last night of NBA regular season play and with all 30 teams in action, we've got tons to discuss.

Today's Best Bets

Check out our action and analysis for Friday's nine-game NBA slate, featuring top prop bets for Friday, January 30.

Dillon Brooks o19.5 Points (-110) | Lucky Rebel

Dillon Brooks takes on Lebron James tonight and if you're not familiar with their relationship; here's a reminder.

Brooks has played the Los Angeles Lakers three times this year, averaging 25.3 points per game and clearing this line in two of the three games. He scored 18 points in the solo under, mainly due to foul trouble and therefore limited playing time. The Suns won two of the three games, the most recent in blowout fashion.

Brooks has played 13 games without Devin Booker this year, one where he left in the first quarter due to injury. In the 12 games he played full minutes, Brooks' averaged 22.7 points and 19.1 shot attempts per game. He's also seeing a 30% usage rate in these games without Booker and tonight against the Lakers should be no different.

Jalen Green exited the Suns' last game early and also remains questionable for tonight's matchup.

Jaylen BRown

Jaylen Brown o37.5 PRA (-120) | Lucky Rebel

Normally I'd stay off this prop in a game that I think could get ugly, but Bleacher Report just dropped their annual list of the NBA's Most Overrated Players and you'll never believe who landed at No.10.

Jaylen Brown is currently having the single best season of his career. He's averaging 28.8 points, 7.0 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game. He's been incredibly efficient doing it, shooting 47.6% form the field and he's shooting 80% from the free throw line for the first time in his career.

Without Brown's high level of play this year, the Celtics likely miss the playoffs, Jayson Tatum doesn't return and Joe Mazzulla doesn't record his fourth straight season of 50+ wins. Jaylen Brown has the 4th highest winning percentage of all NBA players since 2020 and two of the guys above him are his teammates.

Brown's been amazing this year and lists like this only motivate the former Finals MVP. I'm expecting him to take a ton of shots tonight and show everyone why he deserves to be in the conversations for Most Valuable Player.

De'Aaron Fox o16.5 Points (-110) | Lucky Rebel

The San Antonio Spurs are locked into the No.2 seed heading into the postseason and tonight's game really means nothing. Victor Wembanyama's status is still up in the air, but if he sits, Fox should be in line for a ton of volume.

The 7'4 Frenchman suffered a left rib contusion in the first half of their game against the Philadelphia 76ers and missed the Spurs' following game against the Portland Trailblazers. Fox finished with 25 points in that, took 20 shot attempts and saw a usage rate of 30.9%.

In games 17 games without Wemby this year, Fox has cleared this line in 15 of the 17 games; averaging 24.7 points per game and seeing an average usage rate of 30%.

You may know me as ‘VSaaauce’. I’ve been a die hard hoops fan my entire life. I’ve been betting on the NBA/NCAAB/NFL/MLB for six years now, each year gaining more and more knowledge about being a profitable handicapper. I’m eager to learn, and eager to pass on everything I’ve gained over the last few years. I started my Twitter page four years ago, and this community makes me so thankful I did. Outside of sports and handicapping, I enjoy traveling, hoopin, a strong espresso and I’m currently studying to obtain my MD. I’m all about the vibes, good vibes only.
