In sports picking, a "prop" or a proposition pick (short for proposition) refers to a wager placed on a specific aspect or event within a game that may not necessarily affect the overall outcome. Proposition picks can involve various elements within a game, such as which team scores first, the number of goals or points scored by a specific player, the duration of the national anthem at a sporting event, or even specific player statistics like passing yards in football or three-pointers made in basketball. Props provide a wide range of sports picking opportunities beyond the game's final result, allowing pickers to wager on specific occurrences or details within a match or event.
