Look of the Day for Thursday, Feb. 1: Good price on some treys

Tim Hardaway Jr. was the main offensive option for the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night, but he made just two of his 10 three-point attempts and got pulled early in the blowout to go under his point total. We're looking for a bounce-back winner on Thursday night with another injury-related player prop.

Look of the Day: Kelly Oubre Jr. over 1.5 threes (-110 DraftKings)

Thursday, Feb. 1, 10 p.m. ET (TNT)

The Philadelphia 76ers will be without Joel Embiid again on Thursday night, and Tyrese Maxey is questionable to play. Whether or not Maxey plays, the Sixers will need someone to step up on the offensive end against a vulnerable Utah Jazz defense.

Kelly Oubre Jr. has been ice-cold from three of late. Over his last six games, the lefty forward is just 2-20 from beyond the arc. That recent cold streak has caused his three-point prop to dip to a reasonable price, so it's time to pounce.

The Jazz have been terrible at defending the three-ball all season. Utah surrenders the third-most threes per game to opposing teams, and it allows opponents to make threes at the sixth-highest clip in the NBA. The Jazz also give up the fifth-most threes to opposing small forwards. 

If Maxey does play, Oubre will have multiple open catch-and-shoot opportunities from his off-ball role. And if Maxey doesn't suit up, Oubre will attempt a ton of shots as the second scoring option on the Sixers.
