Shai Gilgeous-Alexander over 6.5 assists (+120)
SGA over 6.5 assists
Look for Gilgeous-Alexander to share the rock on Wednesday night in what should be another easy victory for the Oklahoma City Thunder as massive 17-point favourites over the Phoenix Suns in Game 2 of their Western Conference series.
SGA tallied seven assists despite playing just under 30 minutes in a Game 1 blowout for the Thunder, extending his streak to five consecutive games with seven or more dimes. In fact, SGA has beaten this player prop line in 48% of his games this season while averaging 6.6 per game, giving this prop good value at 45.5% implied odds.
Phoenix’s game plan will undoubtedly be to stop SGA from scoring, which is obviously easier said than done, but SGA should have no problem setting up his teammates to do the bulk of the damage as endless double teams flock his way.
Isaiah Joe over 1.5 three-pointers (+110)
Joe over 1.5 threes made
Joe should be the benefactor of a few of those SGA assists, as he looks to extend his streak of draining two or more three-pointers to seven straight games.
The guard, who is always one of the first players off the bench for the Thunder, should play plenty of minutes in this contest if the game script goes anywhere close to what online sportsbooks are anticipating with a Thunder blowout, giving him ample opportunities to beat this line at lucrative plus-money odds.
Joe has eclipsed two three-pointers in a whopping 71% of his games this season, including 15 of his last 20. With 47.6% implied odds at +110, we’re getting outstanding value on this player prop that should be offered at closer to -230 assuming he plays 20 minutes or more.
The only fear here is that the Suns keep this game close and Joe’s minutes get trimmed significantly as a result. But if you believe in an easy Oklahoma City win on Wednesday, back Joe over 1.5 threes made with confidence.
Anthony Black over 2.5 rebounds (-110)
Black over 2.5 rebounds
Black finds himself in a similar position to Joe, in that he’ll be one of the first bodies off the bench for the Orlando Magic in Game 2 of their series with the Detroit Pistons.
An oversized guard at six-foot-seven and 200 lbs, Black has averaged 3.9 rebounds per game this season and has beaten this line in six straight games. He boasts an outstanding 78% hit rate on this prop this season, giving this market at -110 incredible value at 52.4% implied odds.
Black has played 22 minutes or more across three playoff games (including two play-in games), which should give him enough time to haul in the low number of three rebounds against a hulking Detroit squad that ranked fifth in total rebounding during the regular season. That means Orlando’s guards will have to assist with rebounding duties in order for the Magic to stay competitive in this series.
