James Harden Over 2.5 Made Threes (-120)
The absence of Joel Embiid is obviously going to have a huge impact on the usage of the Philadelphia 76ers.
According to RotoGrinders’ Court IQ, in the regular season, with Embiid off the floor and James Harden on it, Harden held a massive 36.1% usage rate — an increase of 11.1 percentage points from his usual clip. He’s going to have the ball in his hands a lot tonight, and he’s probably going to take a whole bunch of shots.
That leads me to the over on his made threes prop.
The Miami Heat allowed the highest three-point attempt rate in the league (45.2%) over the final 15 regular-season games, and while Miami bottled up Trae Young, a fully unleashed Harden should be a different level of beast.
We project Harden for 2.6 made triples on 7.6 tries. I think we might be short-changing Harden just a tad, and I lean more heavily toward the over.
