💵 Best Magic vs. Knicks player prop bets
- Tristan da Silva player prop: Over 1.5 made 3-pointers (+116 via FanDuel) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

- Desmond Bane player prop: Over 16.5 points (-125 via BetMGM) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
💰 Best Magic vs. Knicks player props
⬆️ Tristan da Silva player prop: Over 1.5 made 3-pointers (+116) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Da Silva missed all five of his 3-point attempts on Monday. However, he’s made at least two in three of his last four games, and in seven of the forward's 11 contests overall. He’s averaging 1.8 made threes per outing while knocking down 39.2% of his attempts.
The Knicks are allowing the fifth-fewest points leaguewide, but they’re giving up the second-most 3-pointers to opponents. Additionally, opponents are making 39.1% of their attempts from deep, which ranks the Knicks 26th.
FanDuel’s price of +116 implies da Silva is getting a 46.30% chance of hitting this Over. A $10 bet would profit $11.60.
Our Shane Jackson is also eyeing Paolo Banchero in his NBA player props today.
⬇️ Jalen Brunson player prop: Under 6.5 assists (-113) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Brunson has recorded seven-plus assists in four consecutive games, including 10 in two of his last three contests. However, he’s averaging 6.6 assists per contest while recording five or fewer in four of his 10 games this season.
The guard is hot right now, but he’s about to face a Magic team allowing the fifth-fewest assists leaguewide. Brunson has only faced three squads among the top 19. He tallied fewer than 6.5 assists in two of those three matchups and managed seven during the third.
I’d stay away if this total was set at 5.5. But at 6.5 for DraftKings’ price of -113, it's too good to pass up. The price implies a 53.05% that this Under hits. A $10 bet would profit $8.85.
⬆️ Desmond Bane player prop: Over 16.5 points (-125) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Bane has scored 22 points in two of his last three games, but he’s still only averaging 14.9 points per matchup. He’s scored in the single digits during four of his last six contests, and Bane now faces the league’s fifth-best scoring defense.
But the Knicks are still allowing opponents to make 47.8% of their field-goal attempts, which sits 23rd. Bane has averaged 14.8 points per game, despite shooting just 43.7% from the field. Look for Bane to shoot better than normal during a great matchup while topping his season average for the third time in four games.
The best sports betting sites are confident in Bane, as BetMGM’s price of -125 is the best available and implies a 55.56% chance he hits this Over. A $10 bet would profit $8.
