NBA Player Props: Dec. 21, 2025

Top player props for Dec. 21, 2025

Trae Young — Under 17.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Trae just returned from injury and was eased back into action, recording limited minutes and finishing with eight points in his first game back. With his role still managed and minutes likely capped, this looks like a sensible under pick.

Jalen Brunson — Over 27.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Brunson’s scoring dipped recently amid a busy schedule, but he’s had time to reset and should be ready to shoulder a bigger offensive load at home. Expect him to bounce back and clear this number.

Michael Porter Jr. — Over 24.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Porter has taken on a larger scoring responsibility lately and is in good rhythm, getting plenty of looks each game. Given his volume and form, he’s a strong candidate to exceed this line.

Brandon Ingram — Over 23.5 points (Odds: 1.91). Ingram has been hitting his shots consistently and has surpassed this mark in several recent outings. If he keeps up his efficiency and shot volume, he should continue that trend.

Victor Wembanyama — Over 18.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Wembanyama appears to be settling in and producing at a high level again after an injury layoff, putting up a 26-point game recently. This line is modest for him when he’s on form.
