Today’s Best NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets

(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)

New York Knicks vs. Miami Heat

The Miami Heat lead this series 3-1, and they could clinch the series tonight with a win. Miami has been one of the hottest teams since the Playoffs began. That is mainly due to Jimmy Butler dominating both sides of the court. The Knicks have struggled to stop Butler, and their only win came from the game that Butler sat out due to an injury. 

Butler has the betting value tonight. He is averaging 33.5 points per game during the Playoffs. That is five points over this betting line tonight at plus odds. Butler had two games over 30 points against the Knicks during the regular season. Bettors can take advantage of Butler playing great basketball during the Playoffs and against the Knicks. 

Jimmy Butler Over 28.5 Points (+100)

Golden State Warriors vs. Los Angeles Lakers

Los Angeles is surprisingly leading this series 3-1. The Golden State Warriors are familiar with LeBron James and how to beat him. They have done it in the Finals multiple times. That means anyone could win the game tonight, and this series could still go to seven games. 

The Lakers have held Steph Curry under 31.5 points in every game but one this season. That means that there is a low chance Curry scores over that tonight. The Lakers are too good defensively for Curry to score over 30 points consistently. The Warriors have too many players that can score. The bettors can use that and the Lakers’ defense to their advantage tonight. 

Stephen Curry Under 31.5 Points (-118)
