Locks
NBA (0.5 Unit) Karl-Anthony Towns Over 33.5 Points+Rebounds (-110; Odds via DraftKings): 7:00 PM CT on TNT
First, let’s take a moment to recognize tonight as the last time we’ll see the NBA on TNT. Pour one out, it’s been real. This might also be the last time we see the Knicks as they’re on the brink of elimination, but I doubt KAT goes down without a fight. We know Tom Thibodeau won’t go down without playing his starters almost the entire game, so that will give KAT all the opportunities he needs to reach this prop total. The Pacers have started to adjust how they handle him since he’s always been a bad matchup for Myles Turner, but he’s still averaging 27.7 points and 11.7 rebounds per game against Indiana on the season, and should continue that tonight in a desperation spot.
WNBA (0.5 Unit) Golden State Valkyries @ NY Liberty -10 First Half (-110; Odds via Caesars): 6:00 PM CT on WWOR
The Liberty were an excellent first half team last season, and the talent disparity they have in this game should make it easy for them to roll early again. This is a doubleheader with a day off after these teams played on Tuesday, with the Liberty managing to cover the full-game spread at halftime. That’s not terribly uncommon for them, as they’ve led by margins of 9, 14, 19, and 21 at half of their games this season. The Valkyries should make some adjustments tonight and might not lose by 28 again, but they also have some injury issues to deal with and the Liberty’s talent is just too far ahead, so I expect another early runaway.
