Our Picks

K. Leonard Assists Over 5.5 (+115)

Kawhi Leonard is averaging just 4.6 assists per game, but he is coming off of a nine-assist game in a closeout Game 7 against the Dallas Mavericks. Leonard has carried the scoring load for the Clippers, but in Game 1 Leonard will surely be blitzed by the Utah defence – opening up his playmaking even more.

N. Batum Rebounds Under 5.5 (+110)

The veteran French international has been an impact player for the LA Clippers through this 2021 NBA Playoffs. Batum has been dependable on the defensive end while averaging 5.7 rebounds per game and 2.1 assists. Against the less defensively adept Mavericks, his rebounding numbers were solid. However, when matched up against the tenacity of the Jazz frontcourt he’s unlikely to be as effective.

B. Bogdanovic PTS+REBS Over 21.5 (-115)

A veteran in both the NBA and internationally, Bojan Bogdanovic has been one of the Jazz’s most reliable contributors this season. A capable shooter and defensive rebounder, clearing 21.5 shouldn’t be an issue for Bogdanovic. Considering Mitchell will be the focus of the Clippers’ defense, Bogdanovic will get more than enough opportunities.

Atlanta Hawks at Philadelphia 76ers (Game 2)

Despite being the lower seed, the Atlanta Hawks stole Game 1 from the Philadelphia 76ers and look to go up 2-0! Take a look at our predictions, picks and latest odds for Hawks vs 76ers.

Our Picks:

T. Young Points Over 27.5 (-115)

The Atlanta Hawks are cruising and it’s due to Trae Young’s fantastic scoring rate. He’s coming off of a 35-point performance and has averaged 30.2 points per game on 44.8% shooting through these playoffs. He has a high usage rate, gets to the free-throw line frequently, and is an expert at navigating defenses like the Sixers’. Young clearing 27.5 seems like a given.

T. Harris Rebounds Over 7.5 (-135)

Despite having prolific rebounders like Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons the Sixers’ leading rebounder through the 2021 NBA Playoffs has been Tobias Harris. The Sixers power forward has been averaging 10.0 rebounds over six matches. With all the focus on Philadelphia’s stars on the boards, Harris has regularly been taking advantage. That shouldn’t change in Game 2.

J. Embiid Rebounds Over 7.5 (-130)

It’s close when taking into consideration Embiid’s matchups this post-season. In Game 1 against the Hawks, Embiid collected nine rebounds despite averaging just 7.2 per game through the 2021 playoffs. Embiid will see a more traditional matchup against Clint Capela, which works more in his favor.
