Prop #1: Kevin Durant Over 23.5 points
Kevin Durant is having an impressive first season with the Houston Rockets, who look like a team that could make some noise in the playoffs. They’ll face a good test this afternoon as Houston travels to Oklahoma City to face the Thunder.
While KD hasn’t faced the defending champs yet this season, this is always a special game for him, as he spent the early years of his career with OKC. Durant is also averaging 27.3 points per game on the road, and he’s cashed the Over in three of his previous four road appearances.

Prop #2: Tyrese Maxey Over 3.5 threes
Tyrese Maxey has been the main man for the Philadelphia 76ers this season, and he’s a big reason they could be a dark horse in the playoffs. The guard is averaging 28.8 ppg on 38.4% shooting from downtown, averaging 3.4 makes on 8.8 attempts.
The Kentucky product has cashed the Over in converted triples in three of his last five games, and he’s averaging 3.6 makes on the road at a 41% clip.

Prop #3: Matas Buzelis Under 6.5 rebounds
Matas Buzelis isn’t exactly known for his rebounding, but he’s no pushover on the glass, either. The youngster averages 5.3 boards per game, and his size allows him to make an impact at times down low.

However, Buzelis has hit the Under on rebounds in three consecutive outings, grabbing six on Thursday, and he had just five boards combined in the two games before that.
