Suns-Thunder Prop Bets to Take
PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns hope to get back on track with a Sunday evening matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder, and thus another opportunity presents itself for people to make money from the game.
Some of the best props to take:
Gambling.com: Chet Holmgren Over 1.5 Blocks
Admir Aljic: "Chet Holmgren's been a revelation in his rookie season, especially when it comes to swatting shots. The guy's averaging 2.3 blocks per game, which is pretty wild for a newbie. Standing at 7-foot-1 with some seriously quick reflexes, he's got this knack for racking up blocks. Given the Thunder's speedy style of play, he's got even more chances to add to his block tally.
"Now, if you're looking around for some NBA player props, Holmgren's over 1.5 blocks seems like a solid bet. Remember that game against the Cavs? He snagged seven blocks in that one. That's the kind of performance that makes you sit up and take notice.
"And here's something for the NBA picks crowd: Holmgren's likely going to be up against Kevin Durant, who's been shooting like there's no tomorrow. Durant's high usage rate means more shot attempts, and more chances for Holmgren to do his thing. So, betting on him to get over 1.5 blocks? Seems like a smart move to me."
Action Network: Bet on Quarters
Andrew O'Connor-Watts: "I like a few quarter bets in this game, my favorite of which is the third quarter over. Both of these teams have insane over records dating back to last season. Oklahoma City was 77-7 to the third quarter over last season and is 7-2 this season. The Suns are 88-14 since 2022-23 and a perfect 9-0 this season.
"If one of Beal, Gordon or Booker plays, I’ll take the Suns on the first-quarter spread. With all three out, there’s just not enough fire power to feel confident in them taking care of business. Regardless of personnel for the Suns, if the Thunder lose the first quarter by a wide enough margin, I’ll look at a live betting opportunity for the Thunder’s first-half lines."
