We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which are from PointsBet Sportsbook today. We will discuss whether or not they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.

Trae Young to score 25+ points and the Atlanta Hawks to win – Boosted from +175 to +205 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Trae Young to score at least 25 points in Game 4 against the Miami Heat and for the Atlanta Hawks to win the game. Some late heroics from Young powered the Hawks to a Game 3 win and they are now back in this series. The Hawks played with much more confidence at home and we should expect a similar level of intensity for Game 4. Young scored 24 points in the Game 3 win, and now is averaging 19 points per game in the series. Our experts like the Heat to retake control of the series with a win and cover, so while Young could very well hit the amount of points we need, backing this prop should still likely be avoided because of the lack of faith in the Hawks to win the game.

Chris Paul to have 10+ assists and the Phoenix Suns to win – Boosted from -115 to +100 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop needs Chris Paul to record at least 10 assists and for the Phoenix Suns to beat the New Orleans Pelicans in Game 4 tonight. With Devin Booker having been out for Game 3, Paul stepped in a huge way, pouring in 28 points. He has 14 assists as well, and is now averaging 12.7 assists per game in the series. We should expect a similar output tonight as the Suns will look to take a commanding lead in the series against what has been a feisty Pelicans squad. Our experts like the Suns to win tonight, as well as covering the short spread. For that reason, expecting Paul to have a huge game plus a Suns’ win is worth a play.

Nikola Jokic to outscore Stephen Curry and the Denver Nuggets to win – Boosted from +250 to +320 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop needs Nikola Jokic to outscore Stephen Curry and the Denver Nuggets to beat the Golden State Warriors in Game 4 this afternoon. The Warriors have taken a commanding 3-0 lead in the series and can finish off the sweep in Denver on Sunday. Jokic is averaging 29.3 points per game in the series, while Curry is averaging 25.7. Jokic has actually outscored Curry is 2 of the first 3 games, and will likely need to do the same this afternoon if the Nuggets are going to have any chance of extending this series. Our experts love the Warriors to win and cover because their offense revolves around several players and not just Curry. For that reason, this prop may be best avoided.
