Prop Pick

The Lakers won the first game of the Playoff series and now is the time for the Grizzlies to fight back. They’re going to take this duel very seriously, which is why you can expect to see some good performances by the hosts. We think several of Memphis’ players will do better than expected, including Desmond Bane.

Bookies have set his point margin to 23.5, but we think he’s gonna go way above that number. He put away 22 points in the first game of the Playoffs, but we think he’s going to do better this time. After all, he has to do it if he wants to help his team get to 1-1 in the series.

Prop Pick

The Heat defeated the Bucks 130-117 last night in Milwaukee. It was the third straight loss for the Bucks, which is surprising as they were the team to finish top of the Eastern Conference. So, what’s going on with them?

Well, their talisman Giannis Antetokounmpo has been struggling with a knee injury. After missing three straight games, he made his comeback last night but did not do much in the 10:50 minutes that he spent on the court. We don’t expect much from him this evening either, which means that his teammates will have to step up.

One of the Bucks’ players with the potential to destroy the Heat is Khris Middleton. He too has had some problems with injuries, but he did look well last evening. He scored 33 points against the Heat, and we think he might go near that number again.

Timberwolves vs Nuggets

Odds

• Where: Ball Arena, Denver, Colora
• Channel: TNT

Prop Pick

The Nuggets are 1-0 up against the Timberwolves, and it’s mostly thanks to their good defensive performance. Or should we say Minnesota’s poor offensive display? The Timberwolves scored just 80 points in the first game of the series, which is their lowest number in 2023.

They just have to do better in the offense tonight, and the man to help them achieve that goal is Anthony Edwards. This guy was averaging 24.6 PPG in the regular season, which is proof that he has it in him to put on a high-scoring performance this evening.
