There aren’t many player props to choose from tonight. We’ve got one game on the NBA slate. It’ll start at 8:30 between the Indiana Pacers and Los Angeles Lakers in the Finals of the NBA In-Season Tournament.
The winning team will earn $500K and the first NBA Cup.
Therefore, I’ve got some PrizePicks selections for the massive matchup tonight.
Like every PrizePicks article, we’ll give our four-player props that you can use for a four-leg entry Power Play. A tw0-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -137 for each prop. A three-leg Entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -141.A four-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -128 for each bet.
Getting -128 on the same prop is better than getting -137 or -141. So, moving forward, we’ll stick to four-leg entries.
Remember that a Flex play can still win if one pick misses, but you’d get lower payouts.

Myles Turner erupted for 26 points in the semifinal of the NBA In-Season Tournament. He dominated that game. However, he’s only added 18 or more points in 40% of games this season. Turner has hit this line in only two of his last ten games and once in his previous five games.
Turner shoots the three, but he’s not efficient from long range. Still, half of his shots are sometimes from deep instead of around the rim. The Lakers aren’t the best at defending centers. But Turner isn’t your typical center that only plays around the rim. If they force Turner to shoot, the Lakers likely defend Turner well in this matchup.
Buddy Hield Under 13.5 Points
Buddy Hield is typically good for shooting three-pointers. However, he’s only hit about 39% from downtown this season and has drained just 1.7 threes per game in his last three. Hield just shot 0-for-6 from downtown against the Bucks and added only eight points.
That was the second of three games where Hield scored no more than eight points. He’s hit nine or fewer points in three of his last five games.
The Pacers can’t rely on Hield to win this ball game.
Anthony Davis Under 27 Points
The Lakers destroyed the Pelicans on Thursday, 133-89. Anthony Davis only took ten shots. Instead, he added 15 rebounds and five assists, with two blocks, two steals and 16 points.
When Davis is filling up the box score, that’s when the Lakers are at their best.
In 31 minutes, Davis only took ten shots. And two of those shots were from downtown. There will be games when Davis shoots with high volume. But you’re asking for a lot with 27 points.
Davis took 26 shots and eight foul shots in 39 minutes against the Suns and still only scored 27 points. Typically, Davis doesn’t attempt more than 20 in games. I’ll take the Under.
Rui Hachimura Over 9.5 Points
Hachimura will be the wild card for the Lakers. He was in last year’s playoff run and should be that guy again tonight.
He played 21 minutes against the Pelicans and scored 12 points on 5-of-9 from the field. He’s hit at least 10 points in 50% of games and has hit this line in three of his last five games.
You can expect Hachimura to attempt around ten baskets, with many of those from three-point last. A couple of threes and a couple of layups would do the trick.
