Saturday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets

Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.

Bam Adebayo OVER 28.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists (-122)

Miami was able to steal one game on the road and take away the home-court advantage for the Knicks. The Heat were not a good offense in the regular season, but they have turned it on in the playoffs, averaging 119 points per game and nearly 50-percent shooting from the floor.

Adebayo has been a big presence down low against some excellent competition in Brook Lopez and Mitchell Robinson. Adebayo has hit the over at this number in 64 percent of games this season, including the playoffs and four of his last five contests.

Anthony Davis UNDER 24.5 Points (-113)

Splash City created a tidal wave with 21 threes for the 127-100 win in Game 2 to tie this series. The champs must feel good about going to Los Angeles, especially since they have won their last two road games.

What made the Lakers so successful in the series against Memphis and in Game 1 against Golden State was Anthony Davis’ ability to find shots and establish ground in the paint. However, in Game 2, Draymond Green did a great job at hounding Davis inside. The L.A. big was left with 11 points and seven rebounds.

The Lakers will have to adjust for Game 3 and try to score more from the perimeter. They tried and weren’t successful in the last game. This could take away Davis as a scoring option in this matchup.
