Tyrese Haliburton, Over 4.5 Rebounds

NBA Odds: -145 at FanDuel

When the Pacers' star point guard is aggressive going after rebounds, the team is better. In this series, Haliburton has rebound totals of 10 and 9 in the wins, 3 and 2 in the defeats. In the prior two series, the same thing (5.8 in eight wins, 2.0 in three losses). OKC ranked 28th in rebounds allowed to PGs this season, so the opportunity is there. 

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Under 6.5 Assists

NBA Odds: -125 at DraftKings

SGA willed the Thunder to a dramatic Game 4 victory, scoring 35 points. To go with those 35 points, the point guard added an impressive zero assists. The more he scores, the less he dishes. In the six games this postseason in which he’s scored at least 35, he’s had more than six assists just twice, and twice hasn’t had any. 

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Under 5.5 Rebounds 

NBA Odds: -120 at BetMGM

A similar trend exists on the glass for Shai. When he scores 35, he’s added at least six rebounds one time in six instances this postseason. His points O/U his risen to 34.5, so oddsmakers are expecting a prolific scoring game from the MVP. That typically means less in other areas.
