NBA props for Monday 3/25: Getting the max out of Maxey

By Matt Wiesenfeld | Last updated 3/25/24

Hopefully, your bankroll survived the first weekend of March Madness. Although, perhaps it was not so mad given how well the favorites performed. We were 2-2 and posted a profit to close the week here on Friday if you can remember back that far.

As you manage the lull before Thursday afternoon, which also "kicks off" MLB proper by the way, here are some plays from the 11 games in the Association tonight.

NBA Props for Monday, March 25

Tyrese Maxey, Over 3.5 Rebounds (+105)
Sixers vs. Kings, 10 p.m. ET, NBA TV

Maxey is getting maxed out with Joel Embiid sidelined. He is playing 37mpg and is setting new career highs in all categories this season, including rebounding. This is right at his seasonal average and I like the fact that the 76ers are in Sacramento, where the pace of the game should be electric thanks to Maxey and fellow point guard De'Aaron Fox.

Keon Ellis, Over 3.5 Rebounds (+114)
Sixers vs. Kings, 10 p.m. ET

Ellis just posted a season-high 19 points in his last game. He also played 36 minutes and I do not expect much of a dip because he will have a lot of responsibility for guarding Maxey above. He had five rebounds too and when he has played more than 30 minutes this season he has bested this rebound total every time.

Tobias Harris Over 1.5 Three Pointers (+114)
Sixers vs. Kings, 10 p.m. ET

I wasn't planning on pulling three plays from just this one 76ers-Kings game, but the values are there. Harris is a pretty decent shooter from the outside and in this game, there will be even more possessions from which he can bomb away. He has made two three-pointers in two of the last three games and took at least four shots from deep in each game.

Ochai Agbaji Over 1.5 Three Pointers (+165)
Nets vs. Raptors, 7:30 p.m. ET

The Raptors' season is only about development now. Agbaji is getting regular playing time and the deep shot is a part of his game they want to see. He has at least four attempts in the last three games and this payoff is more than worth it to see if this is a game where he can drop an extra shot from deep. He has at least 29 minutes of playing team in five straight games. He is going to be on the floor.
