Josh Hart OVER 4.5 Assists (-130)<\/p>\n
New York Knicks wing Josh Hart should have an expanded role in Game 3 if Anunoby is out, and Hart already has back-to-back games with six dimes in this series.<\/p>\n
The Sixers have made a push to double Jalen Brunson in pick-and-roll scenarios, blitzing him as much as they can. That should lead to more and more passes being funneled to Hart, as he\u2019s the one player in the Knicks\u2019 wing rotation that the Sixers are willing to leave open from 3.<\/p>\n
Hart has five or more dimes in five of his eight games in these playoffs, and he averaged 4.8 assists per game in the regular season. I think he\u2019s worth a look in Game 3, as he could have an expanded offensive role if Anunoby is limited or out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dylan Harper OVER 17.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-114)<\/p>\n
San Antonio Spurs rookie Dylan Harper has been fearless in the NBA Playoffs, averaging 13.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game while shooting 54.7 percent from the field and 41.2 percent from 3.<\/p>\n
The No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft has made a major impact in this series, putting up 18 points, four boards and four dimes in Game 1 and 11 points, seven rebounds and five assists in Game 2.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s soared past this number in both of these games, and he\u2019s cleared 17.5 PRA in four of his last five matchups.<\/p>\n
The Spurs are also playing Harper quite a bit \u2013 he played over 28 minutes in Game 1 \u2013 after he spent the majority of the regular season in a clear reserve role. I think the rookie could flirt with 20 PRA in Game 3, so I\u2019ll gladly take the OVER on this number.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Mikal Bridges OVER 14.5 Points (-108)<\/p>\n
Mikal Bridges has scored 17 or more points in three straight games, and he seems to have found the confidence in his shot again after a rough start to the playoffs.<\/p>\n
If Anunoby sits, Bridges could be in line for a huge role in the Knicks\u2019 offense as the No. 3 scorer\/creator.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This season, Bridges thrived when Anunoby sat, averaging 17.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 15 games. That includes the final game of the regular season when Bridges played just one minute to keep his consecutive games streak intact. In fact, the Knicks wing scored 15 or more points in 11 of the 14 games where he played his usual role when Anunoby was out.<\/p>\n
After shooting 16-for-23 from the field to open this series, Bridges may be undervalued at this number in Game 3. <\/p>\n
