Monday’s Best NBA PrizePicks Player Predictions
PrizePicks record: 121-81-1
Nikola Jovic More Than 14.5 Points+Rebounds
No Jimmy Butler has forced Nikola Jovic into the starting five. He’s coming off a game where he played 34 minutes finishing with 15 points and eight rebounds. Jovic also put up 20 and 16 Points+Rebounds in Games 1 and 2 of the series as well. When he has played 20+ minutes without Butler around, Jovic has put up 14+ Points+Rebounds in 10-of-14 averaging 16.7 per game. If he is going to see 30+ minutes, he shouldn’t have any trouble getting over this line again.
Michael Porter Jr. More Than 27.5 Points+Rebounds
They have finally adjusted MPJ’s Points+Rebounds line, but it still might not be enough. He has 27+ Points+Rebounds in six consecutive games against the Lakers, averaging 32.7 per game. As the third or fourth option to worry about, he doesn’t draw nearly the attention that Jokic and Murray do, hence the better looks and rebounding opportunities that come his way.
Chet Holmgren More Than 1.5 3-Pt Made
New Orleans starting center, Jonas Valanciunas, simply can’t guard the perimeter. That presents Chet Holmgren with plenty of open looks from three as long as he is on the floor. In Games 1 and 2, Chet had six three-point attempts, converting on two and three of those shots, respectively. The Pelicans have allowed the second-most three-point attempts per game this season, and if Chet continues to see this sort of volume, he should find his way over this mark once again. When Holmgren takes 5+ threes, he is over this in 24-of-35 games this season.
