The Philadelphia 76ers (47-35) have momentum on their side for Sunday's Game 4 after beating the New York Knicks (50-32) in the third contest of this best-of-seven series. They'll look to make it two straight victories to even things back up.

Knicks vs. 76ers prop bet predictions for Sunday

Jalen Brunson Over 31.5 points ⭐⭐⭐⭐

There hasn't been a more Tom Thibodeau player than Jalen Brunson since Derrick Rose was in his prime in the Windy City. The former second-round pick is BrunsHIM, and he put it all on display with a 39-point performance against Philadelphia in Game 3 - that must have stung the Villanova fans in the building.

Averaging 28.3 points per game in the series, Brunson has looked like James Harden with the way he's getting to the free-throw line. He's taking advantage of a 76ers defense that put opponents on the charity stripe at the sixth-highest rate during the regular season (23.5 per game) while allowing the 16th-highest 2-point percentage (54.1%).

Brunson is getting to the rim on command and that's why the -102 odds are a great value with a $10 bet paying out $19.80. The -113 odds at our other best sportsbooks imply a 53.05% probability he hits the Over, according to our odds calculator.

Best odds: -102 via DraftKings

Joel Embiid Over 33.5 points ⭐⭐⭐

Watching Brunson and Embiid trade buckets is like watching Baker Mayfield vs. Patrick Mahomes in a Big 12 shootout from their college days. Whoever is stopped first loses, and that was Brunson in Game 3 with Embiid pouring in 50 points. The reigning MVP has been at his best since returning from injury on April 2.

In his last five games, including the three playoff games, Embiid has scored over 33.5 points three times and is averaging 37.6 PPG in the series against the Knicks. New York just doesn't have a defender capable of stopping him and he's been getting to the free throw line at will (15 attempts per game). 

With odds as short as -125 on this prop, there's a 55.56% implied probability Embiid hits the Over with our -118 odds paying out $18.47.

Best odds: -118 via DraftKings

Tyrese Maxey Over 6.5 assists ⭐⭐⭐

On the heels of winning the Most Improved Player Award, Tyrese Maxey turned in his third-straight spectacular game of this series against the Knicks. He's averaging 31 points and seven assists through three games and is more like the Superman to Embiid's Batman than the Robin at this point.

Much like Superman, his high-flying style has created issues for lesser-equipped defenders and Maxey is exploiting the Knicks defense with his ability to set up others. He's topped 6.5 assists in back-to-back games against a New York defense that allowed 7.87 dimes per game to point guards in the regular season.

The +105 odds on this prop pay out $20.50 on a winning $10 bet if Maxey hits the Over, and with Embiid scoring with ease down low, we like the chances. And so do our other sportsbooks, with this same prop as short as -105, implying a 51.22% probability he hits the Over.

Best odds: +105 via DraftKings
