NBA Fantasy: Today’s Top PrizePicks Predictions for Bucks vs. Nets Playoffs Game 5

There is only one game on this NBA layoff slate today, making DFS NBA picks and lineups a bit tricky to create. So, if looking for a different way to play NBA fantasy contests today, PrizePicks could be a site that interests you. Instead of building lineups of players, at PrizePicks you are making predictions on player stats or fantasy points, with more correct predictions meaning higher payouts.

PrizePicks provides a big list of stats and fantasy points, and you are able to pick and choose which you want to make a prediction for. Stringing together a few picks can pay out up to 10 times your entry fee. You are even able to combine picks across different sports. The only rule is you must make picks for players on at least two different teams.

For the sake of this article, we will take you through four of the best NBA fantasy PrizePicks predictions to make for the Bucks-Nets NBA Playoffs Game 5 matchup.

PrizePicks NBA Fantasy | Bucks vs. Nets Game 5

It is important to note that, much like odds that update throughout the day, the player totals at PrizePicks are subject to change. So if you like these NBA picks below, it’s wise to jump on them quickly.

P.J. Tucker: Over 12.0 NBA Fantasy Points

P.J. Tucker has joined the starting lineup for the Bucks to disrupt Kevin Durant. What also happens is the Nets assign defense on Tucker as a way to catch their breath on defense. Tucker doesn’t move much, but the lazy defense also means he will get open 3-point shots from the corner throughout the game. He was making them last time out, finishing with 25.9 NBA fantasy points. Tucker only needs to hit a couple to hit over this fantasy total.

Blake Griffin: Over 24.0 NBA Fantasy Points

Blake Griffin has flipped a switch this series, looking the best he has all season long. He finished with more than 24 fantasy points in each of his first three games this series. In Game 4, he spent the fourth quarter watching from the bench, which limited him to 25 minutes for the game. He still put up 21.5 fantasy points. Assuming he plays four quarters today, Griffin should get back to his aggressive play that was giving the Bucks troubles earlier in the series.

Brook Lopez: Over 6.5 Rebounds

The shooting in Milwaukee by both teams was inconsistent at best, resulting in Brook Lopez grabbing 11 rebounds in each game. With two of the Nets’ best players out, the shooting will likely be iffy yet again, resulting in plenty of rebounding opportunities for Lopez. Brooklyn also is not putting DeAndre Jordan into the game, so there isn’t much size on the floor to compete with Lopez.

Khris Middleton: Over 2.5 Made Threes

After a poor shooting performance in Game 1, Khris Middleton has dialed it in from long range. He has hit three shots from downtown in each of the past three games. Prior to last game, he also took 20-plus shots in three straight games. If Middleton can be aggressive to start this game yet again, his shots should fall early. Having one of the great slashers in Giannis Antetokounmpo also opens things up for Middleton to get a few easy shots on the perimeter.
