Los Angeles Dodgers to Win & Walker Buehler to Record 7+ Strikeouts – Boosted from +340 to +440 with FanDuel Sportsbook
This prop will need Walker Buehler to record at least 7 strikeouts and the Los Angeles Dodgers will need to beat the Chicago Cubs on Sunday Night baseball. Buehler is off to a great start this season, posting a record of 3-1 with an ERA of 2.12. He has 26 strikeouts this year over 29.2 innings. The Cubs are 15th in the MLB in strikeouts, averaging 8.84 strikeouts per game. Buehler has only had 1 game this season where he struck out more than 7 batters, but because the Cubs strikeout a decent amount, he could reach 7 tonight. Our experts also like the Dodgers on the run line, therefore backing this prop looks to be worth a small play.

James Harden to outscore Jimmy Butler and the Philadelphia 76ers to win – Boosted from +225 to +275 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need James Harden to outscore Jimmy Butler and the Philadelphia 76ers will need to win Game 4 tonight against the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Harden is averaging 17.7 in the series, while Butler is averaging 23.3 points. Harden has only outscored Butler in 1 game in the series (Game 1), but at some point we are going to need to see Harden play more like himself where he drops 30+. Our experts do like the 76ers to even up the series with a win, so this prop looks to be worth a small play.

Joel Embiid or Jimmy Butler to Score 30+ Points – Boosted from +125 to +175 with FanDuel Sportsbook
This prop will need either Joel Embiid or Jimmy Butler to score at least 30 points tonight in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Miami Heat. Embiid managed to play in Game 3, which was a must win situation for the 76ers. Philly ended up winning the game by 20 and Embiid scored 18 points. Even though he had just 18, his energy ignited the 76ers as a whole and helped them cruise to a win to get back into the series. He was likely less than 100% in that game as well, so with a couple more days of rest, we should expect a better performance from him tonight.
Butler scored 33 of the Heat’s 79 points in Game 3 and he will need to have a similar performance in Game 4 in the Heat are going to take control of this series. Given the importance of this game, one or both of these guys are going to need to take over this game. For that reason this prop looks to be worth a play.
