📡 SBR Edge: Brunson Goes Under as Spurs Bounce Back

My best Jalen Brunson player props for Game 2 of the NBA Finals tonight feature Brunson Under 6.5 assists (-145). He has recorded six or fewer assists in each of his last three games, as Josh Hart and Karl-Anthony Towns have taken on larger roles as distributors. My second NBA best bet is Brunson Under 26.5 points (-125), as he has scored 26 or fewer points in each of his last 11 outings after scoring 30 or more.

Brunson Under 6.5 assists (-145)

People were cutting in line to bet Brunson's Over on assists after he dished out 14 in Game 2 against Cleveland. What has happened since? He has recorded six or fewer assists in three straight games, averaging fewer helpers than both Hart and Towns during that span.

This isn't a recent trend, either, as he has gone Under 6.5 in seven of his nine games since New York eliminated Atlanta. Brunson Under 6.5 assists is available at -140 on some of the best sports betting sites, but I'll use BetMGM's -145 for my tracking because it's a widely available number.

Brunson Under 26.5 points (-125)

Brunson scored 13 points in the fourth quarter of Game 1, so we should bet the Over on his points tonight, right?

Wrong! Brunson is rarely aggressive on offense in back-to-back games and has scored 26 or fewer points in each of his last 11 outings after scoring 30 or more. The last time Brunson scored 30 points (Game 3 against Cleveland), he responded with a 15-point outing in Game 4. BetMGM's Brunson Under 26.5 points (-125) is the best line available, but this bet is still playable at Under 25.5 points (-121 or better) on the best NBA betting sites.

Dylan Harper	Spurs	Over 11.5 points	-115

It makes sense that Dylan Harper's Over on points is the most-bet player prop at BetMGM tonight. He has gone Over 11.5 points in three straight games, including a 16-point outing on an efficient 6-of-10 shooting performance in Game 1. His Over 11.5 points is no longer -115 at BetMGM, though; it's up to -125 now. The best line on Harper's points is Over 11.5 (-112) at Pinnacle.
