NBA Playoffs Props for Indiana Pacers vs New York Knicks Game 6

The New York-Indiana Pacers ECF series may come down to the wire. After the Knicks won Game 5, the Pacers are back on their home floor for Game 6 on May 30. They have the 3-2 lead in the series, but Tyrese Haliburton must be licking his lips to knock off the Knicks in his home arena.

But will Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns make him return to their home floor for a Game 7? Here is a look at the playoff player props based on FanDuel and BetMGM.

NBA Playoffs Props ECF Game 6 – New York Knicks NBA Betting Picks

Jalen Brunson Over 31.5 Points for -105 (BetMGM)

Brunson had 32 points in Game 5. He has been in a terrific rhythm throughout the postseason, becoming the first Knicks player to score 30 points or more in 10 playoff games.

The Knicks’ superstar is averaging 33 PPG during the ECF series against the Pacers. He has scored 31 or more in four of the five gams in the ECF leg and has shot an excellent 51.4% FG from the field. Thus, it won’t be a surprise if he goes “over” the 31.5 points mark.

Josh Hart Over 9.5 Rebounds for +100 (FanDuel)

The Knicks’ hustling guard has been all over the boards throughout the playoffs, especially in this series. Hart is coming off the bench these days, but that hasn’t changed his rebounding chops.

The SG is tallying 10 RPG for the series, pulling down 10-13 rebounds in four of the five games, and in five of the last six games. Thus, I see him continuing the trend here.

Karl-Anthony Towns O 11.5 rebounds for -110 (FanDuel)

KAT has been dominant on the boards just like his teammate Hart. The incredible Knicks center is tallying 11.8 RPG for the series, and has grabbed 12 or more rebounds in three straight games and in nine of the last 12 postseason games.

Thus, I do put faith in the tremendous player to pull down at least 12 boards in another elimination scenario.

NBA Playoffs Props ECF Game 6 – Indiana Pacers NBA Best Picks

Tyrese Haliburton U 20.5 points for -105 (FanDuel)

Haliburton has performed as per the expectations during the postseason. The guard has averaged 21 PPG during the ECF series, but apart from two performances, he has scored 20 or fewer in three games (7 in Game 5). I believe he will be held below the 20-point mark here.

Aaron Nesmith O 11.5 points for -115 (BetMGM)

The Pacers Wing has been in tremendous touch when his team has needed him. Nesmith scored just 3 points but has put together 12 points in five of the last seven playoff games, including a 30-point explosion in Game 1 of the ECF series. I believe he will hit the 12-point mark again in Game 5.

Hi, I am Shubham. I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats. I got into NBA writing through social media interactions in the mid-2010s as I shared my takes on young talents such as D’Angelo Russell. I hope you enjoy reading my pieces as much as Dennis Rodman loved rebounding the basketball!
