Scoot Henderson Points Prediction: Over 13.5 vs Pacers Tonight (March 18)
Scoot Henderson's points prop is a solid lean on tonight's NBA slate. The Portland Trail Blazers guard takes on the Indiana Pacers on March 18, and our model projects Henderson to clear his 13.5-point line with relative ease. Here's why we're backing the Over.
Scoot Henderson Stats & Recent Form
Henderson has been trending upward over his last five games, averaging 15.2 points per contest on solid shooting efficiency. The second-year guard has shown increased offensive aggression in Portland's lineup, particularly as the Blazers lean on him for perimeter scoring. In games where he sees 28+ minutes—which has been the case in four of his last five—Henderson has exceeded 14 points in three of those matchups. His current role in the offense suggests consistent opportunities to reach this number.
Matchup Analysis: Portland Trail Blazers vs Indiana Pacers
Indiana's defense ranks 18th in points allowed per game, giving up an average of 109.8 PPG. The Pacers' perimeter defense sits in the middle of the pack, and they've struggled to contain secondary ball handlers this season. With Portland expected to push pace tonight, Henderson should see clean looks and rhythm opportunities. The Blazers' backcourt will likely generate enough volume for Henderson to reach the mid-teens scoring-wise.
Our Henderson Points Prop Pick for March 18
OVER 13.5 Points (-136) — Henderson's recent scoring surge, combined with Indiana's average perimeter defense and Portland's tempo-friendly approach, makes the Over the sharper play tonight. We project him to land around 15-16 points. The -136 juice is reasonable for a prop with this much upside built in.
