3 Best NBA Prop Bets Today for Bucks vs. Bulls Game 4 (Trust Bobby Portis, Fade DeMar DeRozan)
By Peter Dewey
The Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks face off in a critical Game 4 on Sunday afternoon, and I have a few players props that I’m looking at in this matchup.
Here are three you should consider betting, with all odds via WynnBET Sportsbook.
Best Prop Bets for Bucks vs. Bulls Game 4
- Bobby Portis OVER 13.5 Points (-105)
- DeMar DeRozan UNDER 28.5 Points (-125)
- Giannis Antetokounmpo UNDER 13.5 Rebounds (-135)
Bobby Portis OVER 13.5 Points (-105)
Bobby Portis has stepped up in a big way for the Milwaukee Bucks this season when one of their three stars (Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton or Jrue Holiday) has been out of the lineup.
Portis stepped up in a big way in Game 3, taking 14 shots and scoring 18 points in a blowout win. With Middleton out of the lineup this season, Portis has thrived, averaging 14.7 points on 12.9 field goal attempts per game.
Portis got the start in Game 3, and he’s averaging 15.5 points per game as a starter this season while taking 12.5 shots per game. As a reserve, he’s averaging just 10.4 points per game on 10.4 shots.
Portis should be in line for a big role again in Game 4, and I think this number is far too low after his strong Game 3 showing.
DeMar DeRozan UNDER 28.5 Points (-125)
Chicago Bulls star DeMar DeRozan had a monster performance in Game 2, but he struggled in Game 1 and Game 3, scoring a combined 29 points in those contests.
While DeRozan certainly has the ability to go nuclear again, I think it’s a better move to take the UNDER on his points prop in this game.
In his playoff career, DeRozan averages 22.0 points per game, but his efficiency goes way down, shooting just 41.7 percent from the field and 22.4 percent from beyond the arc.
Giannis Antetokounmpo UNDER 13.5 Rebounds (-135)
Giannis Antetokounmpo has been fantastic this postseason, but I’m going to fade him a bit on the glass after he had two crazy rebounding games in Game 1 and Game 2.
Giannis has cleared 13.5 boards in just two of his last seven games, and he averaged 11.6 rebounds per game in the regular season. He still may have a strong day on the glass, but the two OVERs in Game 1 and 2 seem like a little more of an outlier than the norm.
