A pick on Devin Booker headlines Sunday’s batch of NBA prop bets.
The pregame narrative: The shooting guard is poised for a big night in the absence of his superstar teammate. Evan Mobley and Myles Turner are my other top prop targets for today’s slate.
Check out the best NBA prop bets for April 6.
NBA prop bets
Best Bet: Booker over 27.5 points (-117)
Booker, unsurprisingly, has produced more without Kevin Durant in the lineup this season.
- With Durant: 25.1 PPG
- Without Durant: 27.9 PPG
That’s almost a three-point uptick. He’ll be without his star teammate on Sunday against the New York Knicks.
New York is a strong opponent, but not because of its defence. The Knicks rank near the middle of the pack with a 115.3 defensive rating.
The Phoenix Suns have been without Durant for the past two games. Booker took a total of 51 shot attempts in those matchups.
He scored 39 and 37 points, easily clearing today’s total both times.
Key stat: Booker has averaged 36.8 points in his last four games without KD.
Best NBA picks
Mobley over 18.5 points (-110): This is a great matchup for one of this season’s breakout scorers.
- 2024: 15.7 PPG
- 2025: 18.6 PPG
Mobley faces the Sacramento Kings, who struggle to contain power forwards. The Kings allow the second-most points to the position (24.53), per Fantasy Pros.
In a meeting with the Kings in March, Mobley had 31 points on 13-of-18 shooting.
He looks primed for a big performance against Sacramento, who lacks a formidable interior defender.
Turner over 23.5 points/rebounds (-114): This game has a very high projected total (241 points), so the offensive potential is high for any player.
Not only that, but a high-event game should create more rebounding opportunities as well.
That brings me to Turner, who’s been taking on a larger offensive role lately.
Since the all-star break, the 6-foot-11 centre is averaging 16.6 points and 6.7 rebounds while shooting 49.8% from the field (40.7% from 3-point range).
If this game finishes anywhere near its projected total, Turner should see enough volume in terms of scoring and rebounding to be within range of this prop.
