NBA Player Props: Jan. 15, 2026
Top player props for Jan. 15, 2026
Here are the player prop picks to keep an eye on for Jan. 15, 2026. I’ve focused on point totals and kept the reasoning short and straightforward — injuries, matchups and recent form are the main factors behind each call.
Franz Wagner — Over 15.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Wagner will be playing a game with extra motivation, and even if he’s managing minutes as he comes back from injury, this matchup looks like one where he can find scoring chances. Expect him to get looks in and around the paint and from the perimeter, making the over reasonable.
Devin Booker — Under 25.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Booker is talented but facing a tough defensive assignment and a potentially rugged road environment. With a minor ankle issue limiting him and opposing defenders likely game-planning to slow him down, he’s a reasonable fade at this number.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — Under 30.5 points (Odds: 2.00). The matchup against a defense that has quality perimeter defenders makes this line challenging for Shai. Expect team defensive schemes to force ball movement and limit isolation scoring, so the under is the safer play here.
Giannis Antetokounmpo — Under 28.5 points (Odds: 1.87). This looks like a game where interior rim protection and size could make it tougher for Giannis to dominate scoring. If opponents clog the paint and force the Bucks to diversify offense, Giannis may not reach this total.
Daniel Gafford — Under 10.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Gafford’s offensive role has been limited lately, with few shot attempts and stretches of inactivity. Given that trend and the matchup, it’s unlikely he breaks this line.
Quick notes
Odds and lines can change as tip-off approaches, especially with late injury news or lineup updates. Treat this as commentary and not financial advice — adjust your plays based on the latest information and your own research.
If you track multiple props, keep an eye on game pace and projected minutes; those two factors tend to move player totals more than anything else on a given night.
