Expert NBA Player Props Analyst, Daniel Parisi, gives his best daily prop.
NEW YORK @ MIAMI
If you are going to take Jimmy on the overs, don’t look at his box score returns in February, it is less than flattering.
And whilst 19, 14, and 17 over his past 3 outings is nothing to sing home about – it’s Jimmy Butler (so you need to take a deeper dive) eyeball shot attempts and digest game scenario. Often a facilitator, and one to set the motion in play, Butler can be as hands on (from a usage perspective) as he is hands off.
With the Heat sitting awkwardly at 9-14, I dare say Jimmy wants to get this roster trending. Should he be in that ‘mood’, 19 points against the Knicks at home – is service for Jimmy, so let’s take it.
PICK – JIMMY BUTLER OVER 18.5 POINTS
RESULT – 26 POINTS
