Playoff basketball is basically here. Tonight’s NBA Play-In doubleheader gives us two huge matchups — Hawks vs Magic and Grizzlies vs Warriors — both with major postseason implications. After breaking down every betting note and prop trend from around the industry, we’ve locked in our top plays.
Using our proven 3-step model — data-driven research 📊, trends analysis 📈, and AI insights 🤖 — we’ve locked in the top plays for tonight’s action. Let’s break down our picks using our exclusive system: 👍 Props (bets we like), 🔒 Locks (our favorites), and 💧 Drops (leans we don’t love but don’t hate).
Paolo Banchero Over 29.5 Points 👍 — Banchero has scored 30+ in all 3 games vs Atlanta and is averaging 29.1 PPG since March. With Jaylen Suggs out, his usage should spike even more in this must-win spot.
Warriors Moneyline 👍 — Golden State has won 9 straight at home vs Memphis and has the playoff experience edge. Every major sharp outlet expects them to show up in this spot.
Zach Edey Over 10.5 Rebounds 🔒 — Edey has 16 boards in back-to-back games vs the Warriors and leads all centers in rebound chances over the past 6 games. Golden State ranks bottom 5 in rebound rate allowed to centers.
Jimmy Butler Over 21.5 Points 🔒 — Playoff Jimmy mode activated. He had 30 in a recent clutch win and now faces a Memphis team ranked dead last vs small forwards.
Stephen Curry Over 28.5 Points 💧 — He dropped 52 vs Memphis earlier this month, but the Grizzlies will sell out to stop him tonight. We lean over based on upside, but defensive pressure could be an issue.
Magic Moneyline 💧 — While Orlando’s defense has been elite, Atlanta has kept games close and has playoff experience. The Magic should win, but we’re not calling it a lock.
📉 Final Thoughts/Trend Analysis
Zach Edey and Paolo Banchero were two of the most mentioned names across all betting sources today — both getting strong backing for their points and rebound overs. Golden State was the clear public and sharp side for the night game.
Let’s stay hot as we move toward the postseason!
