The 2021 NBA playoffs are here, and our friends over at PrizePicks still have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best and easiest to win NBA DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.
PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat.
For NBA, Single Stat consists of points, rebounds, assists, three-pointers made, and free throws made, in which you determine if the player in question will go over or under their projected total. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Today, we will look at some single-stat scores for tonight, April 12th.

Single Stat NBA Totals
Editor's Note: Prize Picks prop totals are not always available first thing in the morning, so check back during the day as other props may be added during the day.
Isaac Okoro OVER 6.5 Points - I'll start tonight's slate off with Isaac Okoro's points prop. Okoro has scored at least seven points in 60% of his games this season. He hasn't hit this number as much recently, but has hit it at a 63% clip with one day rest and in three of four games against Brooklyn this season. The Nets are solid against small forwards, ranking sixth in defensive efficiency. However, they do allow 0.15 points over the league average to the position. My early projections have Okoro logging just over nine points tonight, so we're getting good value on this number.
Anthony Edwards OVER 5.0 Rebounds - Edwards has hit this number in seven of the TWolves' last ten, including Sunday's game against the Bulls where he logged just 18 minutes. He's hit this number in 51% of all of his games this year but draws a solid matchup against the Clippers. Despite ranking 7th in small forward efficiency and allowing 0.3 rebounds under the league average to the position, they do rank 28th in rebounds allowed across the league. My early projections have Edwards grabbing 6.1 rebounds tonight, so we're getting solid value here.
Marcus Morris OVER 1.5 Three-Pointers Made - I really like this number for Marcus Morris. He's hit it at a 56% clip on the year. Despite not hitting this number in his lone game against Minnesota this year, he played just 24 minutes in that game. I anticipate him to play around 25-29 minutes tonight. In games where he plays at least 25 minutes, he's knocked down at least 2 threes in 69% of them (nice). Minnesota ranks 12th in defensive efficiency against small forwards but allows 0.43 three-pointers made over the league average to the position. I have Morris projected for 1.83 threes made tonight and I think he has no problem knocking two threes down.
Other Recommendations - Kevin Durant OVER 31.5 Points, Paul George OVER 27.5 Points, Andre Drummond OVER 11.5 Points, Paul George OVER 3.5 Three-Pointers Made
Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
