While the results have all gone in one direction, it has still be an exciting series — so let’s get ready for what should be an awesome Game 4 by taking a look at a few player props in my Knicks at Cavaliers best bets for Game 4 on DraftKings Sportsbook.

Knicks at Cavaliers Props on DraftKings Sportsbook

Jarrett Allen Over 12.5 Points (-116)

While the Cavs have struggled offensively in this series, Jarrett Allen has been a consistent presence down low and one of the most reliable players on Cleveland’s roster.

He has recorded more than 12.5 points in seven of his last nine games, going off for 23 points in Game 7 against the Pistons — the last time the Cavs faced elimination.

Allen finished with 17 points in Game 3 at home, and he has posted that many points in four of his last five home games against the Knicks. Allen isn’t usually the focal point of his team’s offense with Donovan Mitchell and James Harden running the show, but he can step up and deliver in crunch time. His point total seems too low coming into Game 4.

Mikal Bridges Over 15.5 Points (-102)

Mikal Bridges has been another key contributor without being the offensive focal point, and he has been instrumental to New York’s playoff run. While he struggled early in the playoffs, his recent surge has been key to the Knicks’ rampage through the Eastern Conference.

Bridges is a great option in Monday’s Game 4 props, and his point total seems too low. He has cleared 15.5 points in seven of his last eight contests, averaging 19.1 points over that stretch.

In Game 4, Bridges dropped a series-high 22 points. He has also logged at least 39 minutes in each game this series, getting plenty of chances to reach this prop line in a massive role.

OG Anunoby Over 2.5 3PM (+130)

OG Anunoby has buried at least three three-pointers in six straight road games dating back to the regular season. He knocked down three treys in Game 3, finishing with 21 points in 31 minutes.

After missing time to nurse a hamstring strain, Anunoby has worked his way back to full strength and has been elite on both ends of the floor.

Even though he didn’t make three triples in Games 1 or 2 at the Garden, he’s been good enough on the road for this plus-money prop to be a great option in Game 4.

Bonus Parlay Play: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 4.5 Assists (-130)

If you are assembling a Same Game Parlay (SGP), be sure to capitalize on the Profit Boost to use on a 3+ leg parlay on DraftKings Sportsbook. Adding in the over on Karl-Anthony Towns’ assists boosts the SGP odds to a clean +1000 for the four Game 4 prop bets in this post. Adding on the booster can take your winnings even higher!

Towns’ numbers haven’t been jaw-dropping this series, but he has continued to be an effective distributor. He has finished with at least five assists in nine of his last 10 games, helping both Bridges and Anunoby get going. KAT only had one assist in Game 2 but bounced back with seven dimes to smash this prop in Game 3. As long as he plays his typical minutes, Towns has a strong chance of dishing at least five dimes again on Monday.
