NBA Player Props Today – Wednesday, April 2, 2025

Malik Monk OVER 7.5 Rebounds + Assists (-120, DraftKings)

On Monday, Malik Monk played 29 minutes as he continues to gradually increase his workload after returning from a brief absence. This season, Monk has gone over this number in 37 of his 46 games in which he’s played 29+ minutes. Tonight, he gets to face a Washington team that ranks below the league average in defensive rating and in the top 10 in pace since the All-Star Break. The math favors the over here.

Karl-Anthony Towns OVER 1.5 Made Threes (-113, FanDuel)

Karl-Anthony Towns hasn’t made multiple 3-pointers in either of his last 2 games, but that streak could come to an end on Wednesday. This season, Towns made multiple 3-pointers in 10 of his 13 games that Jalen Brunson has been inactive, including 6 of 7 road contests. Since the All-Star Break, the Cavaliers have allowed the 4th-most 3-point attempts per game to opposing centers. Towns should have the volume in this matchup to make this a worthwhile risk.

Bam Adebayo UNDER 9.5 Rebounds (-125, bet365)

Bam Adebayo had 12 rebounds on Monday against Washington, but he did so on only 13 rebound chances, marking the 6th time in his last 7 games that he has posted 15 rebound chances or fewer. On Wednesday, he draws a tough matchup against the Celtics, who have allowed the 6th-fewest rebounds per game since the All-Star Break. If Adebayo once again has 15 rebound chances or fewer, he projects for 9 actual rebounds or fewer in this spot.
