🔥 Top Prop Bets
⭐ Stephen Curry (Warriors)
Stat | Line | Season Avg | Over Odds |
Points | 25.5 | 24.5 | -110 |
Rebounds | 4.5 | 4.4 | +100 |
Assists | 5.5 | 6.0 | +100 |
3PM | 4.5 | 4.4 | -105 |
🧠 Prop Insight:
Curry’s assist line looks beatable — especially with the Rockets likely blitzing him off the screen. Look for value on his playmaking.
🧊 Jimmy Butler (Heat)
Stat | Line | Season Avg | Over Odds |
Points | 22.5 | 17.5 | +100 |
Rebounds | 5.5 | 5.4 | -139 |
Assists | 5.5 | 5.4 | -118 |
3PM | 0.5 | 0.6 | -200 |
🧠 Prop Insight:
Butler’s point prop is inflated. Unless he turns back the clock, expect value on the under here.
🧱 Draymond Green (Warriors)
Stat | Line | Season Avg | Over Odds |
Points | 8.5 | 9.0 | -133 |
Rebounds | 6.5 | 6.1 | -105 |
Assists | 5.5 | 5.6 | +105 |
3PM | 1.5 | 1.2 | +165 |
🧠 Prop Insight:
Draymond is a parlay glue piece. Don’t sleep on his passing — he hit 5+ dimes in 7 of his last 9 games.
🚀 Rockets Player Props
📈 Alperen Sengun
Stat | Line | Season Avg | Over Odds |
Points | 20.5 | 19.1 | -105 |
Rebounds | 10.5 | 10.3 | -105 |
Assists | 4.5 | 4.9 | -120 |
🧠 Prop Insight:
Sengun is live across all props. The Warriors have struggled with dominant interior players — especially those who can pass out of doubles.
🔥 Jalen Green
Stat | Line | Season Avg | Over Odds |
Points | 20.5 | 21.0 | -125 |
Rebounds | 4.5 | 4.6 | -111 |
Assists | 3.5 | 3.4 | +100 |
3PM | 2.5 | 2.9 | -105 |
🧠 Prop Insight:
We love the over on 3-pointers here. Green shoots confidently, especially when at home. Could be a sneaky +EV look.
🎯 Amen Thompson
Stat | Line | Season Avg | Over Odds |
Points | 14.5 | 14.1 | -115 |
Rebounds | 8.5 | 8.2 | +105 |
Assists | 4.5 | 3.8 | +105 |
3PM | 0.5 | 0.4 | +135 |
🧠 Prop Insight:
His rebound line is playable, but don’t expect him to hit the 3-pointer line consistently — low volume and shaky stroke.
💰 ClutchBuzz Same-Game Parlay (SGP)
Here’s a +495 odds SGP you can ride for this matchup:
- Stephen Curry 6+ Assists (+100)
- Jalen Green 3+ Made Threes (-105)
- Sengun 20+ Points (-105)
- Over 225.5 Total Points (-110)
Total Odds: +495 💸
Lock this in if you like balanced risk and upside. The over hinges on a Rockets pace push.
🧠 Final Clutch Rockets vs. Warriors Prediction
This one’s going to be decided by tempo. If the Rockets get downhill, crash the glass, and hit early transition threes, they can hang. But if Golden State slows things down and shoots 38%+ from deep, it’s game over.
Clutch Lean:
- Spread Pick: Rockets +5.5 (projected)
- Total: Over 225.5
- MVP Watch: Curry (for playmaking), Sengun (for volume scoring)
