Two great NBA playoff games are on the docket this Tuesday. Let’s take a look at some player props!
Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 29.5 Points
Giannis Antetokounmpo didn’t have his best scoring performance in the Milwaukee Bucks’ opening win over the Boston Celtics, as he had 24 points on just 9-of-25 shooting.
However, he found other ways to contribute, adding 13 rebounds and 12 assists.
We all know Antetokounmpo is capable of dominating inside with his rare combination of size, strength, speed and lateral quickness.
With the Celtics defense having no answer for him though, expect Antetokounmpo to find the cracks in the Celtics’ defense and put up a better scoring performance on better efficiency, as the Bucks will need that if they hope to take a 2-0 series lead heading back to Milwaukee.
Jayson Tatum Over 28.5 Points
The Bucks did an excellent job limiting Jayson Tatum’s effectiveness in Game 1, as he finished with 21 points on just 6-of-18 shooting from the field.
Jrue Holiday and Wesley Matthews did a great job of locking him up, as they both guarded him for over 10 minutes of game action combined and allowed him to attempt just four shots during that time span.
With the Celtics desperately needing a win though, and the undersized nature of both Holiday and Matthews, expect Tatum to adjust his gameplan to use his unique skill set of creating his own shots to his advantage and hit the over on this one.

Ja Morant Over 26.5 Points
Warriors vs. Grizzlies Prediction
Ja Morant had a big time start to the Memphis Grizzlies’ series opener against the Golden State Warriors, as he had 34 points on 14-of-31 shooting from the field.
Morant got hot from three early but adjusted back to his tendency to attack the rim, as he took advantage of the fact that he faced little to no resistance there.
With the Grizzlies hoping to even up the series in front of their loud, passionate fans, expect Morant to hit the over on this line yet again.
Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 15.5 Points
This line is rather low considering that Jaren Jackson Jr. put up 33 points on 10-of-18 shooting from the field in Game 1, which included six 3-pointers.
The Grizzlies could very well give Jackson the green light to let it fly from three, as they’re going to need to get every three they could possibly get in order to keep up with the Warriors.
Expect Jackson to hit the over in this one.
Jrue Holiday Over 19.5 Points
Jrue Holiday proved every bit of his value in Game 1, as he put up 25 points on 8-of-20 shooting.
Holiday has the ability to finish at the rim as well as hitting the 3-pointer.
The need for Holiday’s shot creation is needed as Khris Middleton will be out for this game and the entire series, so expect Holiday to go out there with the same energy he had in Game 1.
