A stellar lock down performance sees the New York Knicks go one up in the series, with all the pressure now firmly on San Antonio to split the home games.

Someone has to make way for Dylan Harper and with Champagnie shooting the lights out, it could be Vassell who misses out.

Averaging thirty-four minutes for the playoffs and he saw thirty-six in game 1. He managed to clear this line by half a point but that was probably due to a nine rebound game. I can’t see him replicating that with just a four rebound average for the entire season. Don’t get me wrong, he will still start and he should still see plenty of opportunity, but the Spurs got overrun when they went away from what got them the lead in the first place.

Harper is becoming a star right in front of our eyes and his ability on both ends of the floor is shining through. His two-step layup is more European than Victor Wembanyama, causing issues when Brunson is guarding him. Since the Portland series, Vassell has only cleared this line 50% of the time.

Value Bet

Dylan Harper

6+ Rebounds

$2.35

Inflated rebound numbers across the board for game 1 with 103 total for the game. Harper managed 8, with big numbers by Hart, KAT and Wemby.

His rebounding numbers are solid throughout the playoffs, clearing 6+ on nine occasions. He has cleared this number in his last four games and only looks to be getting better as the post season runs on.

With the Spurs depth especially in the guards, it is crucial for Harper to do the little things, in order to stay out on the floor. He has been, and that’s why we see a 24.4MPG and a 6.4RPG average over his last five games.
