Sunday’s Best NBA Player Prop Bets
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Alperen Sengun Over 32.5 Points + Rebounds (-105)
The Rockets have all of the momentum going into Game 7 at home. Many expected the Warriors to regroup and end this series in the Bay. That didn't happen, as Houston grabbed the win and forced Game 7.
Houston has been dominating the paint against Golden State's smaller lineup. Alperen Sengun has exploited this and is averaging 20.8 points and 11.5 rebounds per game in the series. This has been a trend for him coming into this series, and he's been excelling, going over this total in seven of his past 13 games. In a winner-take-all Game 7, Houston will continue to do what has gotten them to this point, and that's look for Sengun in the frontcourt.
Steph Curry Over 26.5 Points (-115)
After quiet performances in Game 4 and Game 5, Steph Curry came back in Game 6 with 29 points. He's been consistent in this recent stretch, scoring 27+ points in nine of his last 15 games and in six of the last 11 against the Rockets.
Game 7s are an opportunity for heroes to step up and make a name for themselves, and the Warriors have one in Curry. He's played in five Game 7s and scored over 26 points five times. Golden State will rely on its premier shooting, and Curry is one of the best in the league.
Donovan Mitchell Over 3.5 Three-Pointers Made (+124)
We have the start of a second-round matchup between the Pacers and Cavaliers. The Cavs made easy work of the Heat by getting the sweep, including two wins of over 50 points. This has been one of the best offenses in the league, as they led the league in points (121.9 per game) and offensive rating (121).
Donovan Mitchell had a fantastic first round, averaging 23.8 points per game, which came with a couple of games playing fewer than 35 minutes. That's because he was efficient from behind the arc, shooting 45%. He went over this line in two of the last three games.
Mitchell is going up against the Pacers. He went over this prop line in two of the last four games. Indiana struggled against the three during the Milwaukee series, allowing a 45.3% three-point rate and 14.4 three-pointers made per contest.
