NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets Picks & Predictions: Monday (4/17)
Just two games on the schedule tonight, as every series had its first game. One of the games featured was the most exciting game of this past weekend and could be again. We will look at players that could make an impact today.
Monday's Best NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets
Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook
Tyrese Maxey OVER 2.5 Threes (-102)
Game 1 was all 76ers as they rolled to a 121-101 win, and they held the win probably through the game. Joel Embiid led the team with 26 points, and James Harden played well against his former team scoring 23 points with 13 assists. The Nets were non-existent guarding the arc as Harden hit seven threes, and the Sixers hit 21 from deep.
Philly has the best three-point shooting efficiency in the league, and Brooklyn is 21st in three-point shooting efficiency allowed. Harden's prop total is low but isn't a great value. Maxey has the same number with a better value, and he's gone over this prop in two of the three games against the Nets this year and six of his last nine.
Domantas Sabonis OVER 13.5 Rebounds (-113)
The Kings and Warriors was the most exciting game on Saturday. Golden State led at halftime, but Sacramento surged in the second half, including De'Aaron Fox, who finished with 38 points in a 126-123 win.
We should expect another fast-paced, high-scoring matchup between the top two scoring offenses. Sabonis finished the season leading the league in rebounds at 12.3 per game. Those numbers were even better against the Warriors, and in four games, including Game 1, he's averaging 16.5 rebounds.
Draymond Green OVER 7.5 Assists (-128)
As a bonus pick, I like Green and his assist prop. He was tremendous at facilitating the ball in Game 1 and had his second 11-rebound rebound performance against Sacramento this season.
