16 NBA teams are in action today, and there are many different player props to bet on. Below, we'll guide you through the best player props to target, courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook.

NBA Player Prop #1: Kelly Olynyk Over 18.5 Points, Rebounds, and Assists (-120)

Utah Jazz vs. Milwaukee Bucks Match Details

Fixture: Utah Jazz @ Milwaukee Bucks

Date & Time: Saturday, December 17, 8:00 p.m. EDT

Venue: Fiserv Forum, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Kelly Olynyk has been a great veteran presence for the Jazz this year, and besides his leadership, he's been an all-around contributor. He enters tonight's contest versus the Bucks averaging 13.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.3 assists. Utah was expected to be a rebuilding team this year, but so far, they're 17-14, and Olynyk has been a big part of that. The Gonzaga alum is averaging 21.8 combined points, rebounds, and assists over his past five games, so look for him to be productive again tonight in spite of Milwaukee's tough defense.

NBA Player Prop #2: Kawhi Leonard Over 30.5 Points, Rebounds, and Assists (-119)

Washington Wizards vs. Los Angeles Clippers Match Details

Fixture: Washington Wizards @ Los Angeles Clippers

Date & Time: Saturday, December 17, 4:00 p.m. EDT

Venue: Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, California

Kawhi Leonard has been hindered by injuries this year, but recently he's looked like his normal self. Against an elite Boston Celtics defense earlier this week, Leonard tallied 25 points, nine rebounds, and six assists, and tonight he'll take on a reeling Wizards squad. With star teammate Paul George listed as questionable tonight, Leonard could see an even higher usage rate than normal, but even if George plays, expect the Wizards' defense to have no answer for Leonard.

NBA Player Prop #3: Zion Williamson Over 36.5 Points and Rebounds (-106)

New Orleans Pelicans vs. Phoenix Suns Match Details

Fixture: New Orleans Pelicans @ Phoenix Suns

Date & Time: Saturday, December 17, 9:00 p.m. EDT

Venue: Footprint Center, Phoenix, Arizona

Zion Williamson is a superstar in the making, and recently the former #1 overall pick has been unstoppable. Zion is averaging an incredible 30.5 points and 9.1 rebounds over his last eight games, two of which came against the Suns. He'll face Phoenix again after scoring 35 on them in consecutive games last week, to go with 15 total rebounds over the two contests. Expect the Pelicans star to dominate once again versus the Suns, this time in Phoenix.
