Best Karl-Anthony Towns prop bet on DraftKings Sportsbook
Karl-Anthony Towns O 15.5 Rebounds + Assists (-106)
Towns has been great as a rebounder and playmaker in these NBA Finals. The big man posted 12 rebounds and four assists across 34 minutes in Game 1 and 13 rebounds and four assists across 33 minutes in Game 2.
During these playoffs, Towns is leading the Knicks with 10.8 rebounds on 16.9 rebound chances per game. As a facilitator, the Kentucky product is averaging 5.6 assists on 6.4 potential assists per game, which are big upgrades from the regular season, when Towns averaged 3.0 assists on 4.5 potential assists per game.
Towns has topped 15.5 RA in 10-of-16 games and he should continue see big minutes in Game 3 with the Knicks only favored by 2.5 points. Towns stuffing the stat sheet with over 15.5 RA in front of the New York faithful at Madison Square Garden is likely, and he is a terrific bet for this over.
