Free NBA Props Sunday April 17, 2022

Hawks vs. Heat, 1:00PM ET

PICK: Bam Adebayo OVER 20.5 points (-106)

It has to be Bam. Clint Capela is out for Game 1 and beyond, and that means that one of the most dominant big men in the post will be able to feast with relative ease. He's been on a tear, too, hitting this mark in his last two games, including in his last game which was against Atlanta with Capela on the floor that night. Let's just say I will be VERY SURPRISED if the Heat aren't looking for Adebayo at every opportunity today.

Nets vs. Celtics, 3:30PM ET

PICK: Andre Drummond OVER 9.5 points (-112)

With some big name players in action in this one, there are also some incredibly inflated lines which can make this a tricky game for prop bettors, however, we think we've stumbled across a good one here in Andre Drummond. Drummond has emerged as a focal point of this Nets offense over the past couple of weeks, hitting double digits in points in four of his last five games. He's extremely efficient finishing around the rim and should be given around 20 minutes and 10 shots to make his mark.

Bulls vs. Bucks, 6:30PM ET

PICK: Zach LaVine UNDER 2.5 made threes (+112)

While we are expecting a Bulls fightback this evening, the shooting form of Zach LaVine must be considered, particularly from range. While he's a high volume shooter from three, he's only hit 3 or more from deep once in his last seven games. At plus money, it's a bet worth taking.
