Phoenix Suns vs. Dallas Mavericks Play Prop Prediction: Devin Booker's Night to Shine
Phoenix Suns vs. Dallas Mavericks Play Prop Prediction: Devin Booker's Night to Shine
We've got Game 7s all over the place today. This is exactly what every Sunday should look like and if I was in charge, that would happen. Since I'm not, we just have to wait for the stars to align which they did. Lucky us. Now we could go hockey, which I support but I'm looking to build backwards here. You don't want 8:00 pm ET to roll around and then realize you don't have a bet for that game. That would be tragic. The Dallas Mavericks and Phoenix Suns have been good but betting the games make them more fun. Everyone knows that. Lucky for us, I've gone over all the narratives and crunched every single number that could be crunched. I even crunched a few that many thought were uncrunchable. The code has been cracked people and this is the move. Let's dive into my predictions and the odds.
Devin Booker 30+ Points (+124) (Bet $100 to win $124)

We're at FanDuel for this one because they are the ones that offer 30+. DraftKings has a version but it calls for us to take 35+ or 40+. I believe in Booker it's just feels like those DK bets are a little too aggressive. We can be satisfied with a little +124 action. We don't need to have a pissing contest out here. We're degenerates. Not morons. (I still might do the 40+ +900 at DK)
Let me tell you guys about Devin Booker. He IS the Phoenix Suns. As he goes, they go. At least offensively. If I was in charge of that team tonight, I would require him to at least touch the ball on every possession tonight before anyone else is allowed to shoot. It's literally "the way" in a Game 7 like we have tonight. Back the stars people.

If you want stats, I can give them to you. The thing is, stats mean nothing. This is Game 7. Not some random matchup in December. Hell, it's not even Game 1 or Game 2. We're talking Game 7 here people. But, if you must have it, Booker has already dropped 30+ on these guys twice this series. In another game he hung 28 so that pretty much counts when you're explaining this to your friends.
The thing I like most about this is Booker won't need to shoot the ball 100 times tonight to get home. In his 35-point game earlier in the series, he only took 22 shots attempts. He's done that a few times this season. In a Game 7 scenario, I'd expect we will see Booker shoot the ball at least 22 times with upside of 25+. The guy put up 49 against the Nuggets this season with just 25 shots. That's crazy. He needed free throws that night but why won't he get to the line tonight? I think 30+ for this price.
