Thunder vs. Magic NBA Player Prop Picks & Odds Tonight
The Oklahoma City Thunder will look to rebound after losing to the Milwaukee Bucks during the NBA Cup Final. They face the Orlando Magic on Thursday, a team that's dropped consecutive games and three of its previous four.
We're leaning heavily on big men in our Thunder vs. Magic NBA player prop picks, and looking to Goga Bitadze and Mo Wagner to keep thriving.
We also believe Isaiah Hartenstein's combo prop line has been mispriced ahead of the Thunder and Magic tipping off at 7 p.m. ET from Kia Center in Orlando, Fla. (TNT).

Best Thunder vs. Magic prop predictions
Goga Bitadze Over 9.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: +105 via DraftKings | Implied probability: 48.78%
It’s time to Go Go Goga one more time with a delicious plus-money alt rebound line. Bitadze’s line is 8.5 for odds of -137 or shorter, but we can get it at even money or longer by simply tacking on one additional board.
Over his last three, Bitadze has averaged 13.3 rebounds and grabbed at least 10 in all of them. He’s started 20 games and corralled at least 10 rebounds in 10 of them.
We’re getting excellent value with +105 odds. Oklahoma City has allowed the most rebounds to opponents this season, and the Bucks' frontcourt duo of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez combined for 28 rebounds on Tuesday against them.
This is an easy Over for the big man who’s played the most minutes and been the most productive for the Magic since they lost Franz Wagner three games ago.
Isaiah Hartenstein Over 25.5 points + rebounds + assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -118 via Caesars | Implied probability: 54.13%

Robert Plant sang, “I can’t quit you baby,” and that’s exactly how we feel about Hartenstein. We took the Over when his PRAs line was set at 27.5 on Tuesday, so we’re certainly taking it again tonight when it’s dropped to 25.5.
Hartenstein has averaged 12.8 points, 12.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists this season, good for 29 PRAs. He’s hit the Over on this line in nine of 11 games, including each of the last three in the NBA Cup knockout rounds.
As Oklahoma City’s only healthy center, he’s been asked to play big minutes and handle a sizable workload. Orlando is a big team, and we can expect Hartenstein to see as much playing time as he can handle in this one. We’re hammering the Over.
Moritz Wagner Over 19.5 points + rebounds ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -113 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 53.05%
Wagner is hot off a career-best 32 points in his last game out. We’re not chasing that lofty point total, but we’re certainly banking on him building on that stellar performance against the Thunder.
Over his last seven, Wagner has averaged 15.6 points and 7.1 rebounds. He’s hit the Over on this line four times, including twice solely using points.
Oklahoma City’s defense has allowed 35.3 points + rebounds to opposing centers this season, and Wagner should have plenty of opportunities to score and rebound at a high level. He had a nearly 40% usage rate in his 32-point eruption, and he should continue to see an expanded usage rate with both his brother Franz and Paolo Banchero sidelined.
