Khris Middleton of the Milwaukee Bucks

There are ten NBA games tonight, and plenty of player props are being offered on Caesars Sportsbook. Below, we'll take you through the best props to target this Friday, December 9.

NBA Player Prop #1: Joel Embiid Over 34.5 Points and Assists (-123)

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Philadelphia 76ers Match Details

Fixture: Los Angeles Lakers @ Philadelphia 76ers

Date & Time: Friday, December 9, 7:30 p.m. EDT

Venue: Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Joel Embiid is enjoying another great season, and recently, the big man has been scoring over 30 points with ease. Tonight, he and the Sixers will host a Lakers team that is four games under .500. Embiid scored 39 points and tallied three dimes in Monday's win, and he should be able to be around these numbers again. Embiid has finished with 35 combined points and assists in eight of his previous ten games, and even with James Harden back, expect Embiid's touches to remain just as high as they have been.

NBA Player Prop #2: Lonnie Walker Over 13.5 Points and Rebounds (-123)

Los Angeles Lakers vs. Philadelphia 76ers Match Details

Fixture: Los Angeles Lakers @ Philadelphia 76ers

Date & Time: Friday, December 9, 7:30 p.m. EDT

Venue: Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Lonnie Walker was signed by the Lakers this past offseason after spending his whole career in San Antonio. Walker has stepped into a big role with LA right away, especially because of their injury problems. Even when they're fully healthy, Walker slots into the starting shooting guard position, and all year he's been one of their go-to scorers. In his past ten games, he's finished with 14 or more combined points and rebounds in eight of them. Expect him to see big minutes and contribute in these two categories once again.

NBA Player Prop #3: Khris Middleton Over 19.5 Points and Assists (-119)

Milwaukee Bucks vs. Dallas Mavericks Match Details

Fixture: Milwaukee Bucks @ Dallas Mavericks

Date & Time: Friday, December 9, 10:00 p.m. EDT

Venue: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas

Khris Middleton missed the opening weeks of the season, but he's back now and has logged three appearances so far. Middleton is the Bucks' second-best scoring option when healthy, and he's coming off a game in which he had 14 points and six assists versus a solid Kings team. Tonight, Milwaukee travels to Dallas to take on a Mavs team that is carried by Luka Doncic. Middleton has recorded a combined 20 points and assists in two of his three games this year, so expect him to put his scoring and playmaking ability on full display tonight.
