Philadelphia 76ers vs Brooklyn Nets: Best Prop Bets

Dorian Finney-Smith isn't what you'd call a traditional three-and-D player, but he's proven capable despite a rather pedestrian shooting percentage. At Unibet, Finney-Smith is a +108 to clear 1.5 threes when he faces the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 3. Finney-Smith has stepped up with his shooting as the Sixers key in on the likes of Bridges and Johnson on the defensive end.

On the season, Finney-Smith posted averages of 8.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 1.7 threes per game on 39.1% from the field and 33.7% from three-point land. He was solid in back-to-back games against the Sixers, most recently producing 8 points, 7 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 threes on 33.3% from the field and 30.0% from deep. His willingness to shoot the ball is apparent, and his uptick in minutes for Game 2 is promising for this wager.

Finney-Smith has hit two or more threes in 33 of his 66 regular season games. Over his last two games, he's hit exactly two threes per match. Finney-Smith will find plenty of opportunities from deep as the Sixers' defense locks in on Brooklyn's stars. He's a selective shooter, but his recent trend bodes well for this prop to hit.

Sacramento Kings vs Golden State Warriors: Best Prop Bets

Malik Monk Assists Over 3.5 (+120) @ bet365

Malik Monk has been one of the league's best players off the bench, and he's helped lead his Sacramento Kings to a 2-0 lead over the reigning NBA Champions. A proper combo guard, Monk's scoring and playmaking ability has opened up opportunities for the Kings' star players. At bet365, Monk is a +120 to clear 3.5 assists when he faces the Golden State Warriors in Game 3.

With a lingering injury to Sabonis for Game 3, Monk will have to be more of a facilitator than usual. In 77 regular season appearances, Monk averaged 13.5 points, 3.9 assists, and 2.6 rebounds on 44.8% shooting from the field and 35.9% from three-point range. He followed up his 32 points Game 1 outburst with 18 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists on 40.0% shooting from the field and 42.9% from three-point range.

Monk's production off the bench is crucial to the Kings' success and has put him in the running for Sixth Man of the Year. He is growing more inefficient in shooting the ball from Game 1 to Game 2. Count on Monk to bounce back in terms of his scoring and playmaking. His production is steady across wins and losses, so he must step up as the Warriors' defense focuses on Sacramento's leading men.

Phoenix Suns vs LA Clippers: Best Prop Bets

With the series level at 1-1, Chris Paul's playmaking will be vital in overcoming his opponents' intense defense. At FanDuel Sportsbook, Paul is a +114 to clear 9.5 assists when he faces the LA Clippers in Game 3. With the Clippers keying in on Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, Paul's passing ability will be vital to beating the Clippers' defensive pressure.

Through 59 regular season appearances, Paul posted averages of 13.9 points, 8.9 assists, and 4.3 rebounds on 44.0% from the field and 37.5% from the three-point range. In Game 2 against the LA Clippers, Paul posted 16 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds on 57.1% shooting from the field while failing to make a three-pointer. Paul has always been motivated against his former team, averaging 9.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 11.7 assists in three regular-season appearances against the Clippers this season.

The Phoenix Suns' offense was successful in their last outing due to Paul's playmaking. He contributed 8 of the team's 30 assists while helping them to a 58.8% mark from the field and 41.7% from the three-point range. Against a traditional lineup like the Clippers, Paul can thrive on offense.
