Trey Murphy Under 16.5 Pts (-106 FD)

Murphy is still not getting over this line even in good three- point matchups such as the Rockets, Heat (twice), Thunder, and Bucks, all with 30+ minutes as well. The most field goal attempts he’s seen without Ingram is 13. In games with 14 or less while playing 30+ minutes this season, he’s gone under in 15 of 19 games this season. We talked about this prop a lot in his last game and we will continue to rock with this line as long as Ingram is OUT.

Mikal Bridges Under 18.5 Pts (-115 FD)

Bridges will have a tough matchup tonight against Aaron Nesmith and the Pacers who like to limit threes and 45% of his attempts have been threes, including up to 61% in his last 10 games. Nemsith was his primary defender last time they played in mid-March, forcing him to shoot 0 for 3 from the field in almost five matchup minutes. Nemsith has been very underrated in contesting shots this season. Bridges has been a terrible midrange and pullup shooter this season, and in the last 10 games, he is shooting 28% on pullups and 25% on midrange shots. The Pacers have been top three in both corner three and above the break three attempts (low attempts), as they don’t want to sag off on players to play help defense and force teams to take contested shots in the paint. Bridges is only averaging 0.72 points per possession in isolation and 0.83 on pick and rolls, and both are the best way to attack the Pacers, which in this case would have to be Cam Thomas. Bridges shot 1 of 8 last time these teams played. He’ll have the toughest defensive assignment on him and for the Nets to have a chance in this game, others will need to step up tonight.
