With a nine-game slate, options aren’t a problem. However, Sunday morning only offers two games to choose from, Suns @ Bucks and Knicks @ Clippers. When the New York and Los Angeles played in January, the primary options for each team took over and were the few options to find space among the defenses. It led to a low-scoring game, but anyone able to create their own shot will still have upside. For the Suns, who beat Milwaukee handily back in early February, won’t have either Chris Paul to contribute another 19 assists or Devin Booker to fall back on, meaning both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Deandre Ayton are about to command this game from the paint, outward.
Update: as of just proofreading this, PrizePicks added the Nets @ Celtics and with Kevin Durant at just 26.5 points, add that to the pot and make sure that's your main ingredient for tonight's bet.

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.
Jae Crowder OVER 19.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists – Despite Jae Crowder being your favorite role player’s favorite role player, he manages to step up when no one else seems capable. In his last five games, Crowder’s posted double-digit points and fills the rest of the stat sheet like he did before he was on this scoring tear. Being without Booker and Paul significantly lowers the ceiling on the Suns, but Crowder’s stats have increased and that’s what matters here. Giannis Antetokounmpo might control this game from start to finish, but the Suns will have their say by way of Cam Johnson and Jae Crowder shooting the leather off the ball.
Giannis Antetokounmpo OVER 12.5 Rebounds – Rebounds are easily the least predictable stat in basketball, but when someone attacks the boards as aggressively and frequently as Antetokuonmpo, there’s reason to see why it can be so enticing. Giannis has pulled down at least 14 rebounds in his last four games and with the pace of this game likely to favor the Bucks high-speed playstyle, the rebounds should be overflowing this afternoon and Antetokounmpo should keep his rebound streak going.
Julius Randle OVER 21.5 Points – When Julius Randle is efficient, there are few players on the court that can outshine him. Much of that can be attributed to how well he uses his physical size, but there’s no doubt that when his post-fade is hitting, there’s not much defenses can do about it but sit back and watch. Randle finished with 24 points on 18 shots in just three quarters against the Suns Friday, but his ejection cost the Knicks the game and added one more loss to their streak. There’s rebound potential against the Clippers although it’s doubtful the Knicks end their losing streak at seven.
Other Recommendations - Evan Fournier OVER 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists, Alec Burks OVER 1.5 Three’s Made, Jae Crowder OVER 11.5 Points, Khris Middleton OVER 4.5 Assists
Overall recommendation for this play: POWER PLAY
