Myles Turner, Under 15.5 Points 

NBA Odds: -112 at FanDuel

This is right about what the Pacers PF averaged all season. But the Knicks have made life tough on opposing centers; they rank No. 2 in fewest points allowed and No. 1 in fewest rebounds. Turner’s scoring was sporadic in five games vs. the Cavs, scoring 15 or less in three of five.

OG Anunoby, Over 5.5 Rebounds 

NBA Odds: +110 at BetMGM

This is a relatively high number for the Knicks' power forward, who averaged 4.8 rpg on the season. He grabbed 8 and 9 boards in New York’s last two games vs. Boston, however, and Indiana ranks 29th in keeping PFs off the glass.

Karl-Anthony Towns, Over 22.5 Points

NBA Odds: -112 at FanDuel

Towns went over 22 points just once in six games against the Celtics, and that was just at 23. But he also scored 21 points on three different occasions, and he mostly feasted on Indiana this season. In three games, he was limited to 21 points but in a blowout win, and scored 30 and 40 in the other two.
