Dictionary.com:

props

n : proper respect; "I have to give my props to the governor for the
way he handled the problem"

Off the top of my head, I'd have to say that it came from the fact
that a prop is a support.  And then slang made it the way it is.   In
the above example, if you switch props for support, it still works
fine.
