James Harden Points
Player Prop - 12/11/2023

LA Clippers vs Portland Trail Blazers

 
 
 
James Harden Points Prop is currently Over/Under 15.5 (-118/-104).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 15.5 @ -120 before it was bet up to 15.5 @ -118.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Out of all players in the NBA, James Harden measures in the 87th percentile for playing time, compiling a massive 33.2 minutes per game while playing at home this year.
  • The Clippers will likely see an increase in opportunities in this game from facing the 2nd-speediest pace-of-play home offense in the league over the last 13 games (the Trail Blazers).
  • The Clippers check in as the 9th-best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games when playing on the road (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore create new opportunities for scoring and assists).
  • The matchup vs. the Portland Trail Blazers is a strong one for getting to the foul line; the opposition's starting PGs have attempted a massive 4.7 foul shots per game this year (27th-most in the NBA).
  • James Harden will receive the benefit of the home court advantage in this contest. Playing with the home court advantage generally increases player performance in all facets of the game.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • Relative to last year's 20.9 clip, James Harden's points per game have diminished this year to 15.8.
  • James Harden has attempted just 5.9 shots from downtown per game this season, a significant dropoff from his 7.3 rate last season.
  • The Clippers check in as the 6th-lowest scoring offense in the league this year.
  • The matchup vs. Portland is a challenging one for shot attempts from the field; when the Portland Trail Blazers are the visiting team, the other team's starting PGs have tallied the 14th-least field goal attempts per game in the league since the start of last season (13.0).
  • The LA Clippers have played at the 6th-slowest pace in the NBA over the last 5 games.
