We've got four games on the docket and the the first one's already tipped off. The NBA Playoffs continue tonight and I've got three props across three games so let's jump right into it.
Today's Best Bets
Jalen Green o19.5 Points (-105) | Lucky Rebel
The Phoenix Suns head back to the desert tonight, down 0-2 and desperate to turn this series around. The Oklahoma City Thunder have cruised to back to back wins, winning both games by double digits and holding the Suns to an average of 95.5 points per game in the first two games.
Jalen Green's averaging 19.0 points per game in this series but shooting just 35.9% from the field. He's taking an average of 19.5 shot attempts per game and coming off a 41-minute game in which he took 23 shot attempts.
The thing with Green is, he's just been much better in the desert. In the Suns' two play-in games, Green scored 35 and 36 points, shot over 50% from the field and just under 50% from three. Green's cleared this line in eight of his last 10 home games, averaging 23.1 points per game and shooting 51% from the field.
One of the two misses was due to a knee injury Green suffered in the first quarter. The Thunder will be without Jalen Williams while he recovers from a hamstring injury and with his exit comes an opportunity for the Suns. Williams is the Thunder's second leading scorer in the postseason and was the same during their championship run last year.
If the Suns want to make this a series, it starts tonight and Jalen Green's going to have to be the best Jalen in the building tonight.
Jonathan Kuminga o20.5 PRA (-105) | Lucky Rebel
I'm a little surprised we're getting this line again, but it might be because of the decline in minutes we saw in Game 3. Jonathan Kuminga has been great for the Atlanta Hawks and C.J. McCollum may have said it best in the post game press conference; he's a winner.
Kuminga's averaging 30.1 minutes per game for the Hawks in this series with the New York Knicks and he's been a matchup problem on both sides of the floor. The former Warrior and NBA Champion's averaging 16.0 points per game in this series and he's shooting the ball 57.6% from the field.
Kuminga's added 4.0 rebounds per game in the three games so far and has recorded 2+ stocks in back to back matchups. Head Coach Quinn Snyder's shown he's more than comfortable going to Kuminga in big moments and the kid continues to deliver.
Kuminga's had 19 and 21 points in Games' 2 and 3, he's shot the ball nearly 60% from the field and the team's been so much better with him on the floor. In the postseason, the Hawks have a 111.6 offensive rating with Kuminga on the floor, versus a 106.1 when he sits.
The same goes with their defense. In the 89 minutes he's played in this series, Atlanta's defensive rating drops to 107.8. Compare this to the 124.0 in the 50 minutes we've seen him off the floor and you can see the stark difference.
The Hawks have a net rating of +21.7 with Kuminga on the floor in this series and he's been the one guy New York has no answer for.
Ayo Dosunmu o18.5 PRA (-110) | Lucky Rebel
With all the hype surrounding guys like Jaden McDaniels, Anthony Edwards or even Rudy Gobert; the play of Ayo Dosunmu's gone a little under the radar. He's coming off his best game of the postseason, recording 25 points, 9 assists and 3 rebounds.
So far in this series, Ayo's averaging 16.0 points per game, 2.4 rebounds and 5.0 assists per contest. He's shooting 57.6% from the field in the first three games and the team's offensive rating jumps to +11.4 points with him on the floor.
Ayo was a big time addition at the trade deadline and it's been a common theme amongst a few of these winning teams. Kuminga was added at the deadline by Hawks, Ayo was brought to Minnesota and now both guys are thriving in new roles off the bench and their respective teams both have the opportunity at a first round upset.
