The Indiana Pacers sit just one game away from punching their ticket to the NBA Finals. With a 3-1 lead over the New York Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals, Tyrese Haliburton looks to continue his hot playoff run and propel his squad to the championship round for the first time since 2000.

Here’s the top Tyrese Haliburton prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Pacers vs. Knicks Game 5 tonight.

Best Tyrese Haliburton prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

DraftKings Sportsbook lists Haliburton’s prop lines at 21.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 9.5 assists, and 3.5 three-pointers. His combined PTS + REB + AST line sits at 36.5.

The Pacers hit the road to Madison Square Garden as 4.5-point underdogs with +145 odds to win on the Moneyline. The Knicks hold +175 odds to win outright while the game total sits at 222.5 combined points.

Through the postseason thus far, the Pacers guard averages 19.4 points and 9.8 assists per contest, nearly a double-double. Haliburton is shooting 46.7% from the field and 33.6% from three-point range. Last time out, he tallied an incredible triple-double with a 32-point, 15-assist, 12-rebound effort to lift Indiana towards a 130-121 win in front of the home crowd.

How will Haliburton follow that up? Pretty much any outcome will look underwhelming compared to last game’s performance. Still, over 31.5 PTS + AST looks like one of the top Haliburton prop bets at -110 odds. The star has eclipsed that line in seven of 14 playoff games, so it’s a reliable line at this point. Plus, he’s more than capable of killing the Knicks in either the scoring or assist column if he falters in one aspect of the game — though New York clearly doesn’t have an answer for him.

Pacers wing Aaron Nesmith also remains questionable with an ankle issue. If he doesn’t suit up, there are an additional 10 or so shots available for the Indiana offense which Haliburton could absorb. Regardless of whether he sees those extra opportunities, Hali is going to keep firing. In this elimination game, watch for him to end the series on Thursday evening.
