We cashed a crazy +847 parlay in Saturday's props article to kickstart the year, thanks to a Demar DeRozan buzzer beater in Washington. We return on Sunday so see if we can make it 2 from 2 in 2022.

Heat vs. Kings, 6.00PM ET

Jimmy Butler has been back in the fold for the Heat for the last three games and he has not missed a beat. The veteran leader usually stuffs at least one stat column with something. In his return game on Dec 26 it was 17 points to go with 11 rebounds. On Dec 28 it was 25 points to go with 15 boards, and on Dec 31 it was 37 points. Butler is the perfect man for the PRA combo market because he is a threat to have a good night in at least 1-2 aspects, even if the complete game isn't there for him. Against a Kings team that is not very good, Jimmy should be able to flex some muscle.

BET: Jimmy Butler OVER 37.5 points+rebounds+assists (Best odds -111)

Pacers vs. Cavaliers, 6.00PM ET

Domantas Sabonis has been balling out in his last three games, proving that even if there is another rebound-dominant big man on the opposing team, it's not going to hurt his numbers when it comes to cleaning the glass. Sabonis' rebound total is set at plus money for tonight's tilt against the Pacers, with the line sitting at 13.5. He's hit this in each of his last 3 games, 2 of which coming against the Bulls and Nikola Vucevic - one of the toughest guys to battle with on the boards in the league. We like the trend to continue to roll.

BET Domantas Sabonis OVER 13.5 rebounds (Best odds +108)

Suns vs. Hornets, 7.00PM ET

Sometimes it just pays to keep things simple when betting props. The Hornets have the worst defense in the league, statistically speaking, allowing their opponents to score 116 points per game. The Suns, statistically speaking, have the 4th best offense in the league, scoring at around 111 points per game. Devin Booker is the Suns' best player - he will get at least 20-25 shots off and, if he is accurate, will blow by his points total by early in the fourth quarter.

BET: Devin Booker OVER 26.5 points (Best odds -110)
