Postseason Outlook

The Eastern Conference has been set, sort of. The Bucks are hanging onto the 6-seed with a 3.5-game lead on the Magic and Hawks, so it seems unlikely that we see either team leap frog Milwaukee. With just 2.5-games between 7th and 10th place, even the play-in matchups are still up in the air.

The Western Conference remains as tight as ever so let’s jump right into it.

Wild Wild West

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room, Mike Malone was just fired. Just 11 days after the Grizzlies parted with Taylor Jenkins and the Denver Nuggets gave Mike Malone his walking papers. The Nuggets snapped their 4-game losing skid in Sacremento last night, now just sitting 1-game back of the Lakers.

For the Lakers to secure the 3-seed, they just need to win 1 of their last two games. The Clippers (5th), Grizzlies (6th), Warriors (7th), and Timberwolves (8th) all currently sit within 1.5 games of each other; with the Timberwolves and Grizzlies set to face off today.

As the season comes to a close, the race for the postseason is getting tighter and every game has basically EVERYTHING on the line. Last night we saw the Grizzlies move up in the standings, despite not playing. The Warriors loss to the Spurs could end up being detrimental if they somehow fail to make the postseason. 

Let’s jump right into my best bets for tonight.

Our Selections for NBA Player Props, April 10th

Donte DiVincenzo o18.5 PRA (-110 via BetOnline)

Donte’s averaging 13.9/4.0/3.9 over his L20 games.

We’re going back to Donte DiVincenzo. He’s a guy on his 5th team in just 6 years but he’s helped boost each team to help make the postseason; this year it’s looking like it’s the Timberwolves.

DiVincenzo is averaging 11.5 PPG, 3.7 RPG and 3.7 APG this year but over his last 20 games those numbers have jumped to 13.9/4.0/3.9, respectively. He’s cleared this line in 16 of those 20 games and tonight against the Grizzlies, he’ll be matching up with one of the worst perimeter defenses in the league.

Donte’s played for 4 different teams since then, struggling a little bit to carve out a real role in the NBA. With Minnesota, he’s averaging 25.6 MPG over his L20 games; clearing this line in 16 of the 20 games.

The Grizzlies rank 23rd in points allowed this year, 25th in 3s allowed and 30th in wide open 3-point attempts allowed. 

Donte leads the Timberwolves in that category, averaging 4.2 wide open attempts per game; knocking down 41% of those attempts. He’s soared over this line in two matchups with the Grizz this year, recording 42 and 44 points/rebounds/assists in the two games.

Ryan Rollins o13.5 P/A (-111 via BetOnline)

Over his 10 games, those numbers have jumped to 11.4 PPG and 4.1 APG

The Milwaukee Bucks newest point guard, Ryan Rollins. The kid from Detroit is on 3rd NBA team in 3-seasons, he’s struggled to find a home but now with Milwaukee; opportunity may have struck. Rollins is averaging 25.2 MPG over his L10 games, clearing this line in 5 of his L8 games overall.

He’s averaging 13.0 PPG and 4.3 APG in these 8 games, even recording a 14 point double-double against the Pelicans just a few nights ago. Rollins finished just 3 rebounds shy of a triple-double in that one, playing 28 minutes and taking 15 shot attempts as well.

The Pelicans rank 26th in points allowed and 27th in assists allowed this year and the numbers only get worse against opposing PGs. Rollins is in a special spot with the Bucks, the team’s in dire need of a PG as they head into the postseason and Rollins is the only one that really fits the bill.

Rollins has now started 17 games for the Bucks, averaging 10.2 PPG and 2.9 APG as a starter in 25.5 MPG. Over his 10 games, those numbers have jumped to 11.4 PPG and 4.1 APG; even averaging 5.2 potential assists per game. Look for Rollins to continue to carve out a roll on this Milwaukee team, especially in a game like tonight against the beat up Pelicans.
