As we close in on the end of May, the NBA playoffs have been delivering high drama and big betting opportunities. Momentum is everything this time of year, and reading the trends is key. Whether you’re riding the wave of a hot team or fading a squad on the slide, now’s the time to stay sharp and smart with your wagers.
Yesterday was another clean sweep for Hot Streak Picks.
✅ The Indiana Pacers came through big at -2.5 against the Knicks. Tyrese Haliburton was absolutely electric—dropping 32 points, 15 assists, and 12 rebounds with zero turnovers. A historic triple-double and a commanding 130-121 win to give the Pacers a 3-1 series lead.
✅ We also hit the over 220.5 in that same game, thanks to the high-paced scoring on both ends.
Let’s get into today’s top picks:
We’re backing the Oklahoma City Thunder -8.5 against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Thunder are 4-1 straight up in their last five games and have been dominant at home. Minnesota, meanwhile, is 2-4 SU in its last six matchups with OKC. Expect the Thunder to ride that momentum and cover the spread.
We’re also rolling with the OVER 220.5 in this same game. History says it best—the total has gone over in 12 of the last 17 matchups when these two teams play in OKC. With both squads pushing the pace, we like the over to hit again.
