Expert NBA Player Props for Monday: Josh Hart, Knicks OVER 12.5 Points (+106)

Josh Hart has scored 13+ points in 5 of his last 6 games including 2 of 3 games in this series while falling short in his last game with 10 points due to a 3-9 (0-3 3PT) shooting performance.

Hart has thrived in the pick & roll with Jalen Brunson, and he’s consistently seen open looks. Hart has been guarded primarily by Al Horford or Kristaps Porzingis, and he’s acted as the primary screener for Brunson which has left him wide open when the Celtics double team.

We have seen Hart take 14 three-point attempts in this series, 11 of those have been graded as “wide open” looks and after an 0-3 effort he is due for positive regression.

Karl Anthony-Towns has consistently dealt with foul trouble and Jrue Holiday & Derrick White have been effective in blanketing Brunson, so the Knicks need Hart’s production.

Hart has played 45 & 43 minutes in the two Knicks victories and when he’s played 40+ minutes, he’s covered this line in 21 of 29 games for a 72% success rate.

Expert NBA Player Props for Monday: Jrue Holiday, Celtics OVER 3.5 Assists (+100)

Jrue Holiday has covered this line 2 of the first 3 games in this series while logging 6, 8 and 8 potential assists.

He even managed to log four assists in Game 3 despite playing only 25 minutes due to a 22-point blowout.

Holiday fell just short of this line in Game 1 against the Knicks with 3 assists on 6 potential assists across 39 minutes of action.

However, we have to keep in mind that the Boston Celtics missed an NBA record 45 three-pointers in that game.

Holiday has looked healthy in this series after missing the last three games of the prior series against the Orlando Magic and he logged 5 and 6 assists on 8 and 11 assists in the first two games of that brutal matchup.

When Holiday has played 33+ minutes, he’s covered this line 14 of 21 games (67%) this season and we should fully expect another 35+ minutes assuming we can avoid a complete blowout.
