Best NBA player prop bet: Kawhi Leonard (LAC) Over 36.5 points+rebounds+assists (-110)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Game 4 featured the most field-goal attempts and usage Kawhi Leonard has seen throughout the series. He played nearly 40 minutes in the last game, which ended dramatically. So, we’re going to back the 2x NBA Finals MVP in the biggest game of the season for both teams. The Nuggets have resorted to guarding Leonard 1 on 1 with little help on defense. He’s getting to his spots but has failed to shoot 50% in the last 2 games of the series. Nonetheless, expect another high-usage game, with his rebounding numbers continuing to rise.

Best NBA player prop bet: Karl-Anthony Towns (NYK) Under 13.5 rebounds+assists (-110)
Odds available at BetMGM at time of publishing
Karl-Anthony Towns had his New York Knicks moment in the last game, knocking down continuous clutch shots in the final frame. But we’re not looking to fade his points in Game 4 at home. We’re pivoting to his rebounds+assists prop of 13.5 — a number he has failed to eclipse in the last 3 games of the series. His assist rate continues to plummet, along with his offensive rebounding numbers.

Best NBA player prop bet: Dennis Schroder (DET) Under 6.5 rebounds+assists (-135)
Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Dennis Schroder has been the Detroit Pistons’ X-factor in this series. He had massive scoring outings in Game 2 and Game 3 while primarily defending Jalen Brunson in his 25+ minutes of action. Nonetheless, this is the Cade Cunningham show for the Pistons, and the 2 will share the court together — meaning Schroder’s usage should plummet. For what it’s worth, FanDuel has this same prop priced at -166, so take advantage of this number on DraftKings.
