During that time, White averaged 27.7 points\/rebounds\/assists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the blowout factor certainly seems to be weighing into White&#8217;s line, but I don&#8217;t see a reason to worry. If anything, I see it as a reason to jump in on a discount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this season, White played 39 minutes in a win against the Spurs, recording 28 points\/assists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-479767b6-5872-497b-ac44-239c07c7e3d5\"><strong>Key stat<\/strong>: He&#8217;s cleared this modest total in three of four games against San Antonio since being traded to the Celtics a few years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best NBA picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Haliburton over 9.5 assists (-134)<\/strong>: In the Indiana Pacers&#8217; last game against the Washington Wizards, Haliburton had 29 points and six assists. He only played 24 minutes in a 51-point blowout win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before that, the point guard had double-digit assists in 12 straight games. That&#8217;s a nice floor to work with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pacers are also playing well, going 8-2 over their last 10 games. They should be able to keep this contest close enough to keep the starters in for their normal workloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that&#8217;s the case, Haliburton will not have it as easy as he did vs. the Wizards so expect him to get back to his strength, which is passing the ball. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Murray over 12.5 points (-118):<\/strong> How about a pick for the early game?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Murray, much like Haliburton, has a tough matchup, but this number is too low for me to pass on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we look at the past 16 games, Murray has been very reliable as a scorer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>14.8 PPG<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>12-4 against this line<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Orlando Magic are very good defensively, allowing the fewest points per game in the NBA (106.0). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Murray recently had 28 points against the Thunder, arguably the best defensive team in the league, so I&#8217;m not worried about the matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-84329f2b-7888-4034-9979-03e8608897e5\"><em>NBA prop picks made at 11:43 a.m. ET on 03\/29\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NBA shows seven games on the schedule for Saturday and I have three prop bets for the action.
