Taking an Under on the most important player on the court is some strategy, huh? Jalen Brunson is one win away from taking the Knicks to their 1st Eastern Conference appearance since the 99-00 season, but I see some “value” on an under. Yes, I’m using the most overused word in sports betting when it comes to fading Brunson’s rebounds+assists prop at 10.5.
For one, FanDuel is coming in at a price of -144 on this prop — that’s around what I believe this prop should be priced, so getting -125 looks great. Next, the Celtics continue to hunt Brunson on defense, which has resulted in him being pulled away from the basket. We’ll add on assists here, as I’d imagine the Knicks look for Karl-Anthony Towns to create in the post if the Celtics continue to defend him with Jrue Holiday.
