NBA Player Props: Dec. 18, 2025
Top NBA player prop picks for Dec. 18, 2025
Here are our favorite player-prop calls for the night — short takes, clear reasons, and the odds we’re seeing at publish time.
Jalen Brunson — Over 29.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Brunson has been in terrific scoring form recently, producing 30-plus points multiple times in his last stretch. Facing a defense that’s had lapses this season, he’s the primary scoring option for his team and should have enough usage and opportunities to clear this mark.
Andrew Wiggins — Under 17.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Wiggins hasn’t been finding a consistent scoring role lately, his shot volume and efficiency are down, and he’s gone under his recent lines more often than not. Given his current usage and shooting struggles, he looks likely to finish below this total.
Trey Murphy — Over 18.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Murphy is enjoying the most consistent scoring stretch of his career right now, with strong shooting and good rhythm. He’s hit this number in several straight games, and the matchup projects as one where he’ll still see enough looks to push past 18.5.
Kawhi Leonard — Under 24.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Leonard is producing solid all-around value, but he hasn’t cleared this specific points line in recent games. Against a stingy defense and with the game possibly being decided early, his minutes and shot attempts could be limited, making the under the safer play.
Victor Wembanyama — Over 19.5 points (Odds: 1.87). Back from a short absence, Wembanyama’s minutes are trending up and he’s a matchup nightmare for most opponents. Expect him to be a focal point offensively as he regains rhythm, which should be enough to top this mark.
Quick notes
Odds can shift quickly, so these were accurate at the time of writing. Pay attention to final injury updates, projected minutes, and late rotations before locking anything in. Game tempo and player usage are as important as raw talent when it comes to player props.
Play smart and responsibly — these are opinions based on recent form and matchups, not guarantees. Good luck tonight.
