Tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET, the Oklahoma City Thunder look to get back on track in Game 4 of the NBA Finals. The Thunder haven’t lost back-to-back games yet this postseason.
OKC’s big man, Chet Holmgren, is averaging 13.7 points and 7.3 rebounds in the Finals through three games. Here is my favorite prop bet for Holmgren in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Chet Holmgren over 24.5 Points + Rebounds (-115)
Holmgren is coming off an elite performance with 20 points and 10 rebounds in Wednesday’s Game 3. That was his best game of the NBA Finals so far and is a good trend moving forward. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Holmgren’s over in points and rebounds is set at 24.5, which is -115.
This postseason, Holmgren is averaging 16 points, 8.4 boards, and 1.8 blocks per contest. In the Western Conference Finals, Holmgren had three games with 21-plus points. He has had 10 games with more than 24.5 points and rebounds in the playoffs.
Holmgren made eight free throws in his last game, his most since April 9. He also played 35 minutes in Game 3, his highest since Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals. If he can consistently record 32-plus minutes, hitting this mark in points and rebounds should be doable. Holmgren has totaled more than 24.5 points + rebounds in two of his last five matchups against the Pacers. A key to his success is being aggressive from the start of the game. Holmgren has surpassed this number in the previous eight games in which he has attempted at least 13 field goals.
