The Dallas Mavericks are in Oklahoma City taking on the Thunder in what should be an exciting Game 5. This is a rare full game prop for me in these NBA playoffs but I like it.

The first quarter market has been fun but I like Chet Holmgren here throughout the entirety of this one. Tonight's game between Dallas and Oklahoma should remain close and competitive and with the series tied I see starters playing heavy minutes.
Dallas Mavericks vs. Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
Chet is two for four on this prop against Dallas in this series. The two Thunder wins he hit this over with 18 and 19 points. Oklahoma is a four point favorite tonight at home so if that theme continues then asking for 15 doesn’t seem all that unreasonable.
Dallas will continue to send attackers at Shai Gilgeous-Alexander which should open up favorable looks for the rookie. Holmgren is shooting three percent worse in this series than his season average but as each game progresses, he gets more and more of a feel for playoff basketball.
In the last game, he got to the line three times and took six free throw attempts. If that continues we only need a handful of field goals made to get home here. This number just feels to low for a guy who can shoot the three ball, get to the line and score in the paint. Let's stay hot with NBA and let's roll!
