Best NBA Player Props Picks for Tuesday, April 26th 2022

Three great NBA playoff games are on the docket this Tuesday. Let’s take a look at some player props!

Best NBA Sportsbooks

Karl-Anthony Towns Over 23.5 Points

Timberwolves vs. Grizzlies Picks

Karl-Anthony Towns is coming off his best playoff game of his career, as he dropped 33 points on 8-of-17 shooting from the field and 14-of-17 from the free-throw line.

Towns was very aggressive in this one, as he didn’t let the physicality of the Grizzlies faze him. Instead, he came into the game with a whole different mindset.

“A bunch of rage,” Towns said. “Trying to find ways to dominate regardless of what they throw [at me] — double, triple, quadruple, coach comes on the court and guards me, as well — and find ways to put the ball in the bucket.”

Expect that to carry into this one and him hitting the over.

NBA ATS Odds

Trae Young Over 25.5 Points

Hawks vs. Heat Picks

Trae Young had a forgettable game his last time out, as he finished with just nine points on 3-of-11 shooting.

Young has the ability to torch opposing defenses night in and night out, but the Heat also have the defensive personnel to shut them down on any given night.

Don’t forget that Young has the ability to pull up from anywhere and also take his defenders off the dribble to the rim if defenders relax on him.

With the Hawks facing elimination, expect Young to come out motivated and on a mission to do everything he can to keep his team alive.

Ja Morant Over 26.5 Points

Ja Morant had a forgettable performance his last time out, managing just 11 points on 4-of-13 shooting.

Morant, however, has fared a lot better at home this series, as he put up 32 and 23 points in his first two games, respectively.

Morant relies a lot on driving to the rim and playing above it, and with the passionate Memphis crowd behind him, expect him to be motivated to attack early and hit the over in this one.

NBA ATS Predictions

Brandon Ingram Over 27.5 Points

Pelicans vs. Suns Picks

These playoffs have been a coming out party for Brandon Ingram, as he is coming off a 30 point performance his last time out.

Ingram is a huge reason why the Pelicans have been able to hang with the Suns this season, as he is getting to his spots with ease and channeling his inner Kevin Durant.

With the Pelicans very much a threat to take this series against a team nearly 30 games ahead of them in the standings, expect Ingram to go off.

Jimmy Butler Over 25.5 Points

Jimmy Butler has been on fire this postseason, as he’s averaging 30.5 points per game on over 53 percent shooting.

He is coming off a 36 point performance his last time out to give the Heat a 3-1 series lead.

With the Heat having a chance to advance to the next round in front of their home fans, expect Butler to go off to seal the deal.
