As the NBA Playoffs heat up, momentum is everything—not just on the court, but in the betting markets too. With teams pushing toward the Finals and stars logging heavy minutes, prop bet opportunities are sharper than ever. This is the time of year when performance trends collide with playoff intensity, giving bettors prime value if they know where to look.
Yesterday wasn’t our day—we went 0 for 3. Aaron Nesmith fell short with just 7 points against OKC. Jalen Williams missed the assist mark, ending with just 3. And Shai Gilgeous-Alexander landed just under our target with 12 rebounds + assists when we needed 13. Tough beats happen, but we’re back at it today with picks based on reliable season averages and recent form.
Today’s Picks:
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander over 6.5 Assists vs Indiana Pacers – He’s cleared this line in 3 of his last 5 and is averaging 6.4 assists this season. With Indiana’s high pace of play, Shai should have plenty of chances to distribute.
Jalen Williams over 5 Assists vs Indiana Pacers – Williams averages 5.3 assists per game and has hit this number in one of the last two matchups. The Thunder’s offense thrives on ball movement, and Williams is a key piece of that puzzle.
Tyrese Haliburton over 8.5 Assists vs Oklahoma City Thunder – Haliburton has averaged 9.5 assists per game this season and has hit this number in 2 of his last 5. Expect him to step up as the Pacers look to stay alive in the series.

These NBA prop bets are backed by strong trends and favorable matchups, making them worth considering for your wagers.
