There are just 6 games on the NBA slate on Tuesday. However, with the playoffs just around the corner, there is a lot at stake for many of the teams. There are 2 back-to-back games on NBA TV for us to enjoy. First, the Brooklyn Nets will be hoping to hold onto an automatic playoff berth as they take on the Cleveland Cavaliers. That will be followed by the Sacramento Kings attempting to try and regain the 2nd seed against the Boston Celtics. Be sure to check out all of our NBA picks for today’s games. But for now, let’s dive into my favorite NBA player props below.

Paolo Banchero over 1.5 made threes (+186)
The Washington Wizards have plenty of length in the paint with Kristaps Porzingis and Daniel Gafford on the inside. Going up against them, do not be surprised to see Paolo Banchero step out to the perimeter and attack from there. He has faced off against the Wizards twice so far this year and has averaged 4.5 3-point attempts per game. While he has made multiple three-pointers in just 4 of 10 games this month, he did so in both where he had at least 5 attempts. The Wizards are 29th in opponent three-point percentage during that stretch which should allow for a great shooting night from the rookie.

Killian Hayes over 12.5 points (-128)
The last time the Detroit Pistons faced off against the Atlanta Hawks, Killian Hayes was able to drop 17 points. He will have a great opportunity of putting together another strong scoring performance tonight as he goes up against Trae Young. The Hawks star is a very poor on-ball defender and should have issues dealing with the length of Hayes. The Pistons’ point guard has been playing well of late too, managing 13 or more points in 3 of his last 5 games, while coming just a field goal short in the other 2. With the Hawks 29th in opponent points per game over the last 10 contests, do not expect a sudden dropoff in Hayes’ performance here.

De’Aaron Fox over 1.5 made threes (-125)
De’Aaron Fox was on fire from deep for the Sacramento Kings last night. He was able to knock down 6 of his 9 attempts and almost helped the Kings come back from 25 points down to the Utah Jazz. It marked the 5th time in 6 games in which he has been able to able to knock down multiple three-pointers. He should be able to keep that going against the Boston Celtics.
Tonight’s visitors have been forcing teams to attack from the perimeter. They are 23rd in opponent three-point attempts per game over the last 10 outings. The hosts could also still be without Kevin Huerter. He leads the team in three-point attempts per game and if he sits out, Fox will be tasked with picking up some of those shots. With him making 38.9% percent of his attempts this month, he shouldn’t need many.
