The 2021-2022 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 26th.

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.
Trae Young UNDER 24.5 Points - I'll start tonight's slate off with Trae Young's points prop. Young has hit this number in just one game in this series(Game 2). While the Hawks will need Young to get hot in hopes to stay in the series, I think Miami shuts the door without Kyle Lowry. Lowry missed Game 4, a Miami blowout defeat where Trae was "ice" cold, shooting just 3-11 from the floor. He's hit this number just three times in his last eight games against the Heat, and my model projects him to score just 24.1 points in this one.
CJ McCollum OVER 5.0 Rebounds - I played this prop last week, and McCollum delivered, grabbing eight rebounds in Game 2. He followed with just four in Game 3 but bounced back on Sunday night with nine rebounds. Since joining the Pelicans, McCollum has logged at least five rebounds in five of six games. I expect that trend to continue tonight as the Pelicans look to take the series lead. My model projects him to grab 5.6 rebounds tonight, providing us some solid value here.
Anthony Edwards OVER 3.5 Three-Pointers Made - The final prop of the night will be Anthony Edwards's threes prop. He's hit this number in each of the first four games against Memphis this series, as in seven of the total eight matchups between the two teams on the year. While there is some concern that his three-point attempts have regressed in each game of this series, he still took eight attempts on Saturday. My projections have Edwards knocking down 3.8 threes tonight, which is decent value, but I have no problem riding the hot hand here, either.
Other Recommendations - Kevin Huerter OVER 3.0 Assists, Patrick Beverley OVER 19.5 PRA, Herbert Jones OVER 14.5 PRA, Jimmy Butler OVER 0.5 Three-Pointers Made
Overall recommendation for this play: FLEX
