NBA Player Prop #1: Demar DeRozan Over 26.5 points (-122)
Chicago Bulls vs. Washington Wizards Match Details
Fixture: Bulls @ Wizards
Date and Time: Friday, October 21 (7:00pm EST)
Venue: Capital One Arena
Given the current health of the Chicago Bulls, DeRozan has to be a one-man show to keep them alive until they get some other big names back. We know he can do it based on his incredibly hot start to last season where he gathered MVP buzz. DeRozan scored 37 in the season opener and led the Bulls to a win, and we should expect that kind of performance again tonight. Shooting 63% from the field, he'll get all of the looks and shots he wants. Everything will run through DeRozan tonight, and 26.5 is too low to reflect that.

NBA Player Prop #2: Cade Cunningham Over 6.5 Assists (-112)
Detroit Pistons vs New York Knicks Match Details
Fixture: Pistions @ Knicks
Date and Time: Friday, October 21 (7:30pm EST)
Venue: Madison Square Garden
Cade Cunningham, in his rookie season, had to run the entire offensive scheme. The Pistons now have Bogdanovic who can certainly help carry that load and will allow Cade to be more versatile in different areas. Cade will still get his points on a nightly basis, but this opens up the assist game for him. He had 10 assists in their season opener and 6.5 looks a little bit too low for a game where they will have to fight harder than they did against the Magic.
Expect Julius Randle to hit over 20.5 points (-104). 20 points is too low for their main focus point, especially while opening up the Garden for the first time this season.
