How PRA props work
The book posts a line, for example 34.5 PRA, with a price on each side (often near -115). You bet the over if you think the player clears 34.5 combined points, rebounds and assists, or the under if you think they fall short. At the buzzer the three stats are added and the bet is graded against the line.
A worked example
A guard is listed at 34.5 PRA. He finishes with 24 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists. That is 37 combined, so the over cashes. Had he posted 20 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists, that is 33, and the under cashes. Foul trouble, blowouts and pace all move PRA more than any single-stat prop, which is why matchup and minutes matter so much.
Reading a PRA line
PRA combines three correlated stats, so it is less volatile than a single points prop but very sensitive to minutes. A star who might rest in the fourth quarter of a blowout is a live under risk. Public money tends to pile on stars' overs, so the value often sits on the under or on role players in expanded roles.
Frequently asked questions
What does PRA stand for?
Points, rebounds and assists. Books add all three into one total and set an over/under line on it.
Is PRA only for basketball?
The PRA combo is a basketball prop. Other sports have their own combined props, but PRA specifically means points plus rebounds plus assists.
