The NBA Playoffs are in full swing, and momentum is everything. Teams are adjusting, players are stepping up, and betting opportunities are everywhere — if you know where to look. This time of year, smart prop betting isn’t about hype, it’s about spotting trends and taking advantage of favorable matchups.
Yesterday wasn’t our best showing — we went 1 for 3 on our picks. Bam Adebayo delivered, hitting over 2.5 assists with ease, finishing with 4. However, Max Strus struggled, managing only 1 three-pointer when we needed over 2.5. Davion Mitchell also came up short, scoring just 8 points when we needed 12+. Tough day, but that’s the grind — and we’re bouncing back today.
Today’s Top Picks:
-
Gary Trent Jr. Over 12.5 Points @ Indiana Pacers
Trent has gone over this number in 2 of his last 5 games and is averaging 11.1 points per game this season. With Damian Lillard out due to a torn Achilles, look for Trent to get more shots and opportunities to score. -
Tyrese Haliburton Over 5.5 Rebounds vs Milwaukee Bucks
Haliburton has gone over this mark in 4 of his last 5 games. While his season average is just 3.5 rebounds, the matchup and game flow favor an uptick in his rebounding numbers today. -
Josh Hart Over 5.5 Assists vs Detroit Pistons
Hart has cleared this line in 2 of his last 3 games and is averaging 5.9 assists per game this season. Against a weak Pistons defense, look for him to continue distributing effectively.
