Eric Moody breaks down his top betting picks for Saturday's playoff slate.
Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks face off against the Philadelphia 76ers as 3.5-point favorites at ESPN BET. Former manager at a Fortune 100 financial services company, now living my dream creating fantasy and sports betting content about the NFL, NBA, and WNBA for ESPN.
The first round of the 2024 NBA playoffs begins on Saturday and perhaps the most interesting game of the slate features theaveraged a career high 28.7 points and 6.7 assists per game this season which helped the Knicks earn the No. 2 seed, closing out the season with a 13-5 record. Basketball fans should keep their eyes on this game and this prop bet that immediately caught my attention. Let's get into it.
Brunson continues to be the engine that drives the Knicks with a 32.4% usage rate this season. Brunson has cleared this line in four of his past five games and averaged 13.8 potential assists and 8.4 rebound chances per game over that time frame. Even though the Knicks rank last in pace, this is still a great spot for him.
Game 1 of the Magic-Cavaliers series has the makings of a defensive-minded game since the total is only 207.5 points at ESPN BET. Both teams rank near the top of the league in fewest points allowed per 100 possessions. Strus has cleared this line in four of his past five games and in three of his past four against the Magic. He has a ton of playoff experience and should be very comfortable against the Magic.This line is a bit low for Nurkic. He has eclipsed 22.
