How Player Props Work on Chalk

Player props let you bet on individual player stat lines — not the game outcome. Pick a player, choose a stat (points, rebounds, assists, or 3-pointers), set an over/under target, and put up your stake in CHALK tokens.

1
Draw up a prop

Pick a player, stat, and over/under target. Example: "LeBron over 27.5 points"

2
Someone takes the other side

Your prop goes on the board. Another user accepts and takes the opposite side.

3
Auto-graded from ESPN

When the game ends, results are pulled from ESPN box scores. Winner takes the pot.

Popular Player Prop Categories

  • Points — The most popular prop. Will the player score over or under the line?
  • Rebounds — Big men and versatile forwards. Centers and PFs tend to be the targets.
  • Assists — Point guards and playmakers. Great for targeting pass-first players.
  • 3-Pointers Made — Sharpshooters and volume shooters. High variance, high excitement.

Tips for Winning Player Prop Bets

  • Check injury reports — When a star is out, role players see more usage.
  • Look at matchups — Some teams give up more points to guards, others to bigs.
  • Recent form matters — A player on a hot streak is more likely to stay hot.
  • Pace of play — Fast-paced games mean more possessions and higher stats.
  • Home vs away — Some players perform significantly better at home.
