Expert NBA Player Props for Monday: Josh Hart, Knicks OVER 10.5 Points (-120)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Boston Celtics defense blankets spot-up and long-distance shooters which is beneficial to Josh Hart as he’s one of the strongest drivers on the New York Knicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hart will also be defended by one of the Celtics bigs which sets him up to utilize his speed when Jayson Tatum switches to Karl Anthony-Towns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has covered this line in 3 of the 4 head-to-head meetings with Boston with 12, 17, 20 & 10 points across 25, 38, 40 & 48 minutes (OT) of play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also logged 14+ field goal attempts in 3 of those 4 games with 6 in the game where he only played 25 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hart just cleared this number in 4 of his last 6 games in the series against the Detroit Pistons including each of the last three games where he scored 13, 14 and 15 points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m not trying to compare Josh Hart to Franz Wagner, but Wagner did just thrive from the small forward position against Boston with 23+ points in all five games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expert NBA Player Props for Monday: Russell Westbrook, Nuggets OVER 8.5 Rebounds + Assists (-115)\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You might question Russell Westbrooks shot selection, but you can’t question his heart and hustle, and he will be highly motivated in a series against a Thunder team that he spent the first 11 season of his career with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s a perfect player to target from a Rebound + Assist standpoint and he logged 10+ RA in 4\/4 head-to-head games against OKC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Thunder have elite defensive guards (Dort, SGA & Caruso) that will force Westbrook into more passing situations, and they allowed the 5th most rebounds to opposing point guards with 6.4 per game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Denver ran a tight rotation in Games 6 & 7 against the Clippers, but Westbrook was their must heavily utilized bench player with 16 & 10 RA across 35 & 27 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
