Best Thunder vs Pacers Player Prop Bet: Pascal Siakam over 3.5 free-throws made (-115)
Odds available at Fanatics Sportsbook at time of publishing.
I expected this to open at juiced odds at 3.5 or + odds at 4.5. Siakam has been very aggressive during the playoffs, seeing 5+ free throws attempted in 9 straight games. In this series against OKC, we have seen Pascal hit this prop in both games. In Game 2 we saw him make 8 out of 9 shots at the stripe. That would be more than double the made free throws we need for tonight. Indiana is a lovely basketball state and Pacers fans are some of the best around. I fully expect an energized crowd to help motivate Siakam to be ultra physical around the paint and see some looks from the line. This is simply a value play and the volume is there. Spicy P is a known respecter of our coin, so let’s hope he continues to come through for us when we need him most.
