  • Thursday brings another four NBA games
  • I have asked our A.I. to provide its best NBA player prop to bet in each game
  • See today’s A.I. NBA picks

Just four games are on the NBA schedule on Thursday, October 30th, starting with Magic vs Hornets at 7:00 pm ET and ending with Heat vs Spurs at 8:30 pm ET. The docket also includes Warriors vs Bucks and Wizards vs Thunder, both at 8:00 pm ET.

I have asked our internal A.I. to generate its top player-prop pick from each of today’s NBA games. The table below sets out today’s A.I. NBA picks, plus the book currently offering the best price.

For the fourth straight day, the A.I. has picked exclusively overs. It’s largely sticking to the stars on Thursday, betting overs on LaMelo Ball, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Victor Wembanyama, plus 2024 #2 pick Alex Sarr

Magic vs Hornets Player Prop Pick: Ball Over 3.5 Threes

A.I. rationale: “Ball has been operating at an MVP level, currently averaging an impressive 4.2 made three-pointers per game on high volume (10.8 attempts) while shooting an efficient 39.5% from deep. The matchup context makes this a premier play against Orlando’s road vulnerability. The Magic’s perimeter defense has been completely dismantled away from home. In road games this season, Orlando is allowing opponents to shoot a staggering 41.5% from beyond the arc. This defensive weakness aligns perfectly with Ball’s strengths and Charlotte’s league-best 41.0% three-point shooting. Given Ball’s volume and efficiency, combined with Orlando’s specific struggles defending the three on the road, he’s positioned for a barrage from deep.”

Warriors vs Bucks Player Prop Pick: Giannis Over 31.5 Points

A.I. rationale: “The statistical foundation for targeting Giannis Antetokounmpo’s scoring prop is overwhelming. He enters this contest averaging 36.2 points per game on an absurd 69.5% field goal percentage, with his home performance even more dominant at 37.0 points on 24.0 field goal attempts per game.

The matchup dynamics strongly favor the Greek Freak’s scoring explosion. Golden State has surrendered 124.0 points per game on the road while committing 16.4 turnovers that directly feed Milwaukee’s transition attack. Antetokounmpo generates 31.0 points in the paint per game at home, and the Warriors’ defensive vulnerabilities in the half-court create additional scoring lanes.”

Wizards vs Thunder Player Prop Pick: Sarr Over 13.5 Points

A.I. rationale: “Chet Holmgren’s absence fundamentally changes the Thunder’s interior presence, creating prime scoring conditions for Sarr’s developing offensive game. The rookie has shown a dramatic home-court advantage, with his usage rate jumping from 27.5% overall to 32.6% at Capital One Arena. His scoring follows suit, climbing from a season average of 19.5 points to 27.0 points per game at home.

Sarr averages 19.0 field goal attempts in home contests, and without Holmgren’s shot-blocking presence (1.2 blocks per game), he should find cleaner looks around the rim. The Thunder’s compromised interior defense removes their primary deterrent against aggressive big men.”

Heat vs Spurs Player Prop Pick: Wembanyama Over 27.5 Points

A.I. rationale: “The statistical mismatch favoring Wembanyama centers on Miami’s inability to protect the rim. The Heat’s 2.8 blocks per game represents a 43% deficit compared to league average, creating an open runway for a player averaging 16.0 points in the paint per game.

Wembanyama’s 32.4% usage rate becomes even more pronounced with Fox and Sochan sidelined, making him the primary offensive focal point. His 60.3% field-goal percentage reflects elite efficiency that should translate against Miami’s interior vulnerability.”
