  • Tuesday's NBA slate features a number of playoff games, which means there's plenty of value on PrizePicks.
  • Munaf Manji sees value on De'Andre Hunter and Ja Morant in Hawks vs. Heat and Grizzlies vs. Timberwolves.

Player props have become among the most popular bets in the industry, but while the amount of states with legalized gambling is growing, some may feel left out.

Enter: PrizePicks.

With PrizePicks, you get the opportunity to essentially parlay game prop over/unders with cash payouts depending on how many you get correct on that day’s slate.

You can do a Flex Play or a Power Play. A Flex Play gives you lesser odds, but you can win money even if you don’t nail every pick. Meanwhile, a Power Play is similar to a parlay — it’s all or nothing.

Here’s how I would approach today’s slate in NBA Playoffs slate.


What is PrizePicks? A daily fantasy operator — meaning they’re available in more states (30) than sports betting is! — PrizePicks offers a unique opportunity for action on player props in which you parlay two or more plays together.

NBA PrizePicks Parlay

Ja Morant Over 9.5 Assists

The Minnesota Timberwolves have done a great job limiting the scoring abilities of Morant in this series so far. His scoring has declined in every game of this series, and he finished with just 11 points in Game 4. However, Morant has found other ways to get involved for his team on the offensive side of the basketball.

Morant has recorded double-digit assists in three straight games for the Grizzlies. He has done a great job finding open shooters as well as getting out on the fast break and finding his teammates for easy baskets. Morant and Chris Paul are the only players in the Playoffs averaging 10-plus assists and Morant is also second in potential assists (15.8), according to NBA Advanced Stats.

I think we'll continue to see Morant play the facilitator role in a very important Game 5.

De'Andre Hunter Over 14.5 Points

It is no secret that Trae Young is struggling to score in this series, in large part due to the smothering defense of the Miami Heat. De'Andre Hunter has stepped up in this series thus far for the Hawks.

Believe it or not, Hunter leads the Hawks in points per game in the postseason (17.8) and has eclipsed this line in three of four games this series. Not only is Hunter leading in scoring he has been efficient in doing shooting 57% from the field and 47%  on 3-pointers.

As long as the Heat continue to focus their entire offense on stopping Trae Young, there will be opportunities for other Hawks players to score and I expect Hunter to be a beneficiary.
