The NBA playoffs have come to the Conference Finals, meaning there is no more than one game per night for the rest of the way. This often leads to fantasy players transitioning away from NBA DFS, since creating single-game lineups is tough to do. However, with new types of DFS, like PrizePicks, users are able to still make money playing NBA fantasy while only playing the NBA players they feel the most comfortable about.
No House Advantage: NBA Picks Today | May 20
Steph Curry: O/U 24.5 Points
Following Game 1, the story was about how bad Steph Curry was. Has he lost it? These questions were raised following a performance in which his team got the win and he led the game in scoring, with 21 points. Yes, missing three free throws was uncharacteristic and he could have been sharper from the floor. Assuming Game 2 is more competitive than last game’s 25-point blowout, Curry will be asked to be better, and he should rise to the occasion.
Prior to the last game’s 21-point performance, Curry had scored at least 25 points in eight of his previous 10 games. Look for him to get back on track tonight. The Awesemo NBA Player Props Tool projects Curry for 26.71 points today, though he has the upside for more.

Jalen Brunson: O/U 3.5 Rebounds
There is not much to say about this Jalen Brunson NHA prop other than it is set too low. For someone averaging over 35 minutes per game during this postseason run, he is naturally going to grab rebounds. In fact, he has averaged 4.6 rebounds per game during the NBA Playoffs this season. Brunson has grabbed at least four rebounds in 11 of these 14 games. This includes four rebounds in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, and no much is expected to change from his rebounding output tonight, especially when there is no elite rebounder on the floor this series.
The Awesemo NBA Player Props Tool projects Brunson for 4.64 rebounds today.

Klay Thompson: O/U 3.5 Rebounds
Once again, there is no elite rebounder on the floor in this series, and the NHA rebounding prop for Klay Thompson is set too low. Despite many characterizing Thompson as someone who stays outside of the arc, he has still averaged 5.3 rebounds per game over his past nine playoff games, grabbing at least four boards in six of these nine games. Thompson came down with five rebounds in Game 1 despite playing under his minute average, due to the blowout. He averaged four rebounds per game in the postseason for his entire career, and he should grab at least four again tonight.
The Awesemo NBA Player Props Tool projects Thompson for 4.75 rebounds tonight.
