There’s been some sad news in the NBA. Jason Collins, known for being the first openly gay player in the NBA, passed away from brain cancer. He was 47 years old.

Brandon Clarke, of the Grizzlies, was also found dead on Monday in the San Fernando Valley. He was 29.

Today, we have more props to look at. Before we do, let’s see how yesterday’s picks did.

Last Night’s Featured bets delivered with 2 hits and 1 miss.

Rudy Gobert scored only 4 points in twenty three minutes of playtime. At 25%, his shooting was never strong enough to accomplish what we needed.

We did hit on Ayo Dosunmu, who scored 16 points on the strength of 50% shooting.

And Julius Randle helped us to our first winning record in three days. We needed 17 points from the forward, and that is exactly what he gave us.

Single-prop angles where our model shows higher probability than the odds reflect.

The nice thing about these lines is that they are all achievable by basically anyone in the NBA. That doesn’t make for any sort of assurances, of course, but it is a comforting thought.

Jaylon Tyson has been averaging 4 rebounds per game in the post-season. He’s cleared this particular line in four of his last five outings.

Dean Wade, meanwhile, is sitting on 5 points per game during the playoffs. He’s shooting a respectable 45% from the field, and shouldn’t have any trouble putting up 4 points as long as he gets a few looks. It won’t even take all that many.

Finally, we’re needing 6 points out of Sam Merrill. He’s averaging 6 exactly this post-season. He was at closer to 13 during the regular season, but he’s been playing reduced minutes in the playoffs.

Even with that, he’s managed to clear 6 points in three of his last five games.

Today’s Parlays

Multiple edges combined into one value-driven parlay.

Bear with us. We’ve got a chaotic, eight legged parlay that basically asks something of everyone on court. It’s at +31413.

Yep.

Let’s look:

Dennis Schroder has been at exactly 7 points per game on average this post-season. He gets there with 43% shooting. He’d be a surer bet for this line if he was getting a little more playtime—his minutes dipped in the playoffs. Still, he can do it.

Max Strus is at 9.6 points on average in the playoffs. That average would be higher, but his shooting dipped a little in the last few games, dragging down his average.

James Harden is at 20 points in the playoffs. As you probably know, the vet has no trouble threatening 30 pretty routinely, making this line quite plausible.

We’ve already made our case for Jaylon Tyson and Dean Wade in the Featured Bets section.

Tobias Harris has been over 19 pretty consistently in the playoffs. That said, he’s been kept pretty consistently under 15 by Cleveland this season. He’s also been averaging 5 rebounds per game.

Finally, Evan Mobley. Mobley has been averaging 16 points for playoffs, shooting 56% from the field.

Obviously, anytime this many people are involved in a parlay, the odds aren’t favorable. That said, it’s at least easy to imagine each outcome on the individual level.
