NBA PrizePicks Player Predictions: Saturday (4/8)

Itâ€™s genuinely getting difficult to manage who is playing and who isnâ€™t this weekend.

But there are still a few crucial games on todayâ€™s slate. Weâ€™ll bet on the players who will give us a full game played on todayâ€™s three-game slate.

Like every PrizePicks article, weâ€™ll give out our four-player props from PrizePicks that you can pair to have a 4-Leg Entry Power Play.

A 2-Leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -137 for each prop. A 3-leg Entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -141.

However, a 4-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -128 for each bet. Getting -128 on the same prop is better than getting -137 or -141. So weâ€™ll stick to 4-leg entries moving forward.

Remember that a Flex play can still win if one pick misses, but youâ€™d get lower payouts. This is a player prop parlay.

Saturdayâ€™s Best PrizePicks Player Predictions

Here are my favorite PrizePicks props for Saturday.

Rudy Gobert Over 13.5 Points

The Minnesota Timberwolves still have a chance at a top-six seed. Theyâ€™ll need many things to go their way, including winning todayâ€™s game.

Gobert has earned 13.6 points per game this season and would need 14 points to earn this prop. Heâ€™s only scored 12 and 10 over the last two games, but over his previous 20 games, heâ€™s hit this prop in 65% of games. Gobert is going up against the worst defense in the NBA and should be able to get enough points in a must-win game.

Mike Conley Over 4.5 Assists

Hopefully, itâ€™s Conley passing Gobert the ball. Heâ€™s earned 6.7 assists per game this season and has hit at least five assists in 71% of games this year. Conley has logged at least 32 minutes in his last four games played and should be the engine for the Timberwolves today.

Ivica Zubac Over 11.5 Points

The Clippers need to win out to maintain a playoff spot outside of the Play-In Tournament. Ivica Zubac has averaged just 10.7 points per game, but heâ€™s hit at least 12 points in seven of his last ten games. Heâ€™s super efficient around the rim and is a reliable foul shooter when he gets to the line.

He added 17 points and 13 rebounds against the Lakers in a huge game. Heâ€™ll do the same today.

Kawhi Leonard Over 6.5 Rebounds

Leonard likely wonâ€™t see 40+ minutes if this game is a blowout. But he has averaged 7,5 rebounds per game over his last two games. The Blazers are playing a G-League team at this point. Leonard should have plenty of bricks and misses to clean up on the glass.
