The NBA Playoffs are back in action Tuesday night, and it’s time to celebrate yet another Threesday on DraftKings Sportsbook!
I’m going to break down my first three pick for each of tonight’s postseason matchups on DraftKings Sportsbook. Without further ado, let’s get into it.
All odds provided by DraftKings Sportsbook and all odds subject to change.

Orlando Magic at Cleveland Cavaliers
First Three: Franz Wagner (+1100)
This is definitely a value play.
Wagner doesn’t take a ton of triples, but he’s been quite efficient over his last three games, hitting 5 of 12 long-range attempts. He’s also coming off a playoff career-high 34 points in Game 4 and is clearly feeling it.
As I’ve said before, there aren’t any truly elite, no-brainer three point shooters in this series. As a result, I feel comfortable going down the board and riding the hot hand.

Philadelphia 76ers at New York Knicks
First Three: Jalen Brunson (+425)
Anytime you can get the hottest player in a particular matchup at the third-shortest odds in this scenario, it feels like good value.
Brunson is fresh off a monstrous 47-point performance, setting the Knicks’ franchise record for most points in a playoff game. He’s also been firing away from deep as of late, racking up 15 combined long-range attempts over his last two games.
The efficiency hasn’t necessarily been there, but the volume is encouraging. I’d be quite surprised if the superstar doesn’t put up at least one three in the first few minutes of tonight’s contest.
Indiana Pacers at Milwaukee Bucks
First Three: Myles Turner (+340)
If you’re picking anyone other than Myles Turner for this prop, you likely haven’t paid close enough attention to this series.
To put it simply, I’m not sure how Turner doesn’t have the shortest odds here. The big man is coming off a ridiculous 7-9 performance from behind the arc, and he’s taken at least 10 triples in three of his last four games.
He also draws a favorable matchup for three-point production in Brook Lopez, who struggles to get out that deep consistently to contest. Out of the three games on Tuesday’s slate, this is my favorite pick.
Those are my first three picks for each game on Tuesday’s slate! Stay tuned for more picks later this week.
