The Suns are visiting the Knicks on Sunday. On DraftKings Sportsbook, New York is favored by nine points and this game presents a total of 229 points.
Below, I have featured my favorite Devin Booker prop bet to consider from this contest.
Best Devin Booker Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Devin Booker O 27.5 Points (-120)
While the Suns have lost five in a row, they still have an outside chance of making the Play-In Tournament, as Phoenix is only two games back of the Kings for the tenth seed in the Western Conference. Getting a win Sunday against the Knicks would be huge for the Suns and Booker should continue to put the team on his back with Kevin Durant (ankle) still out. With the former MVP sidelined for the last two, Booker has scored 39 points vs. the Bucks and 37 points vs. the Celtics.
During this two-game stretch, the Kentucky product is averaging 30.5 field goal attempts and 40.5 minutes per game while handling a mammoth 38.1% usage rate. This insane volume should continue for Booker on Sunday and while the Knicks rank ninth in defensive rating since the All-Star break, they will be getting Jalen Brunson (ankle) back in the lineup, which softens New York’s defense dramatically. With the guard on the floor this season, the Knicks’ defensive rating has dropped to 117.4, which would be the sixth-worst defensive rating in the NBA if it was New York’s average for the season.
When Booker faced the Knicks back in November with Brunson active, Booker exposed New York for 33 points. We should see a similar performance from the shooting guard Sunday and Booker is a stellar bet for over 27.5 points.
