Best NBA prop bets today for Jazz vs. Mavericks (Keyonte George can stay hot)
By Peter Dewey
The Utah Jazz are just 7-13 on the season, leading to them being set as major underdogs against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night.
With Lauri Markkanen, Kelly Olynyk and Jordan Clarkson out in this game for Utah, there are opportunities to take advantage of in the prop market.
I broke down my three favorite plays in this game, including a prop for a rising rookie, on Wednesday.

Jazz vs. Mavericks best NBA prop bets
- John Collins OVER 8.5 rebounds
- Keyonte George OVER 25.5 points, rebounds and assists
- Luka Doncic OVER 30.5 points
John Collins OVER 8.5 rebounds
With Lauri Markkanen ruled out for this game, I love taking this John Collins rebounds prop – as he’averaging 8.4 boards per game this season.
Dallas is one of the worst rebounding teams in the NBA (29th in rebounding percentage and opponent rebounds per game), so Collins should get his fair share of chances on the glass.
He’s cleared this prop in 13 of his 20 games in the 2023-24 season.
Keyonte George OVER 25.5 points, rebounds and assists
Rookie guard Keyonte George scored a career-high 21 points in his last game, and since moving to the starting lineup he is averaging 12.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game.
George has cleared 25.5 PRA in four of his last six games, and I think this is a favorable matchup for him against a Dallas team that is just 25th in the league in defensive rating.
Luka Doncic OVER 30.5 points
Luka Doncic should get plenty of chances to score on Wednesday, as Utah ranks 23rd in the NBA in defensive rating.
The Mavs like to play at a faster pace (No. 9 in the NBA), and Doncic is averaging 31.4 points per game this season.
He dropped 36 in his last game and has 12 games already this season with at least 30 or more points. I’d be surprised to see him struggle against Utah.
