Top NBA Plays Monday March 28th| Tough Slate

It's 9-game slate tonight and there are issues in almost all of them. Orlando @ Cleveland, Atlanta @ Indiana, Sacramento @ Miami, and San Antonio @ Houston could all turn into blowouts, OKC @ Portland features two bad teams, and while Golden State (@ Memphis) and Boston (@ Toronto) are both missing about half their team.

This could be the norm with just two weeks left in the regular season, so let's see how it breaks down.

🏀Top Player Props March 28th 🏀

LineStar has a new Player Prop tab that lets you search for the best individual props through apps such as DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, and PointsBet. Here are some of the best bets for tonight:

🏀Tyrese Haliburton (Over 9.5 assists) -He's got 12+ assists in 2 of 3 recent games without Malcolm Brogdon, who is out tonight (conditioning). Highest betting total of the night at 236.5.

🏀Jakob Poeltl(Over 9.5 rebounds) - Up against the Rockets who just gave up 16 rebounds to Drew Eubanks on Saturday and are allowing 10.7 rebounds/game to centers over the past 20. Poeltl has double digit boards in 5 of 8.

🏀Jordan Poole (Over 25.5 points) -He's gone for at least 24 in 7 of the last 8, now gets a night with no Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, or Otto Porter, Jr.

🏀Steven Adams (Over 10.5 rebounds) - Adams has grabbed at least 11 rebounds in 6 of his last 7 and now gets matched up with a shorthanded Golden State squad on the back to back.

Tonight's Key NBA Matchups

Nuggets (-4) @ Hornets, O/U 233.5 7:00 ET

Denver is holding on to a 1.5 game lead over Minnesota to avoid the play-in tournament, but they meet a red-hot Hornets team that has won 7 of the last 8.

Bulls (-3.5) @ Knicks, O/U 219 7:30 ET

New York plays on the back to back tonight after a tough 104-102 win in Detroit on Sunday. That has kept the Knicks at least mathematically alive as they are 4.5 back from the Hawks for the #10 seed with 7 games left. Chicago on the other hand is trying to avoid the play-in tournament, currently in the #5 seed but their offense is sputtering being held to 102 points or less in 3 of the last 5.

Celtics @ Raptors (-4.5) , OU 212 7:30 ET

This line would seem to indicate Boston has a key injury tonight, and indeed Robert Williams could be lost for the year with a knee injury but Jayson Tatum has also landed as a GTD in some places. The Celtics are on the back to back following last night's 134-112 win in Minnesota, their 6th victory in a row. Update: Yep, the Celtics are banged up

Warriors @ Grizzlies (-10), O/U 221.5 8:00 ET

The Grizzlies have won four in a row which has them closer to clinching the #2 seed. They'll be even closer in what could be a blowout game over #3 seed Golden State considering Memphis is a -10 point favorite. GSW has dropped 5 of the last 6.

Spurs (-7.5) @ Rockets , OU 234 8:00 ET

San Antonio has a three game win streak going as they've pulled into 1 game of the play-in tournament. A matchup with Houston is favorable for the Spurs, as the Rockets are on a two-game win streak but the victories came against Portland.
