Best NBA player prop bets to consider for Pacers vs. Knicks in Game 7

Game 7 between the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks will get Sunday’s 2024 NBA Playoffs action started with tipoff from Madison Square Garden set for 3:30 p.m. ET. The home team has won every game in this series, but now everything comes down to just one game where anything can happen. These two franchises played Game 7s against each other in back-to-back postseasons during the 1990s, with the Knicks winning in the 1994 conference finals while the Pacers had the edge in the 1995 conference semifinals. Which team will win out in the latest installment of this famed NBA rivalry?

Here’s a look at some of our favorite player prop bets to target for Game 7 Sunday, with odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.

Tyrese Haliburton over 26.5 points + assists (-120)

If we take away Game 1 where Haliburton logged just six points to go with his nine assists, the Pacers point guard is averaging 23.4 points and 7 assists per contest. Haliburton should remain aggressive, as Indiana tends to win when he takes more shots. He’ll also look to get teammates involved as he has all season, especially with Indiana running a deeper rotation than New York. Haliburton shined in the knockout round of the In-Season Tournament and he’s set up to have a strong showing Sunday afternoon. He should go over this mark.

Jalen Brunson under 35.5 points (-115)

This is risky given Brunson’s production in these playoffs. He’s averaging 33.7 points per game and has gone over this mark in half of the games he’s played. However, the Knicks have gotten offense from other sources and Brunson knows he’ll need others to step up to spread the Pacers out defensively. I do think Brunson remains aggressive and takes it upon himself to will the Knicks to a win, but I foresee him falling just short of this lofty line on his points prop.

Pascal Siakam under 7.5 rebounds (+110)

Siakam has gone under this total in four of the six games in this series, although two of those unders came at seven rebounds. The versatile forward has been extremely efficient in this matchup offensively, though he hasn’t truly had a breakout game yet. He went over this line in two of the three games in New York, but I think the return of OG Anunoby will make an impact on the glass for the Knicks. The rebounding battle has been important for both sides and I see the Knicks gaining the edge there at home in Game 7. That should push Siakam under this line.

Donte DiVincenzo over 3.5 3-pointers (+120)

It’s been a tale of two series for DiVincenzo when it comes to his perimeter shooting. In the first three games, the shooting guard connected on 56.3% of his 10.7 attempts from behind the arc per game. That percentage has dropped to 20% on 6.7 attempts over the last three contests, highlighted by a 0-6 showing in Game 5. The rise of Miles McBride has cut into DiVincenzo’s usage a bit but this is the moment where there could be some positive regression. DiVincenzo shot 40.1% from deep during the regular season and is unlikely to have four bad games in a row. Back him to go over this mark Sunday.
