NBA Play-In Player Props: Joel Embiid Under 30.5 Points at -115
Joel Embiid enters tonight's matchup with a prop of o/u of 30.5 points at -115.
It may be a hard sell considering the Process has recently returned to court and has shown no signs of injury rust; posting 30.4 points, 9.2 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.4 steals, and 1.2 blocks per game. Embiid has also dropped 37 and 32 points in his last two regular season games.
Still, when matched up against the Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo, Joel Embiid has rarely had big scoring performances. Adebayo has typically kept Embiid under 30 points in all but two matchups between the two All-Star centers.
You can expect the Heat to make it hard for Joel Embiid all night.

NBA Play-In Player Props: Tyrese Maxey Over 24.5 Points at -113
Tyrese Maxey's ascension into an All-Star was one of the highlights of the Philadelphia 76ers' season.
The star guard got the chance to take over the offense when Joel Embiid was out due to injury, and coming into tonight's with a lot on the line, Tyrese Maxey should have another big-time scoring performance to help the 76ers clinch the seventh seed.

NBA Play-In Player Props: Bam Adebayo Under 10.5 Rebounds at -120
Miami Heat big man Bam Adebayo has been a pivotal part of the Heat's success this season, being relatively healthy for most of the year.
Now Adebayo has a challenging task in trying to box out the best center in the NBA, Joel Embiid.
Bam's recent rebounding trend over the past few games makes us worried about risking taking the over, as Adebayo grabbed just six rebounds in each of the Heat's final two games.
Against Embiid, he might struggle to cross the ten rebound mark. Give us the under on Bam Adebayo rebounds.

The Chicago Bulls guard DeMar DeRozan is looking to help his team keep their season alive at whatever the cost.
The15-year veteran averaged 24.0 points per game this season and considering the significance of this play-in game, a win-and-get scenario at home, DeMar DeRozan should have a big-time scoring performance to help try and lift the Bulls past the Hawks.

We'll take the over in points for DeMar DeRozan.

NBA Play-In Player Props: Clint Capela Over 12.5 Rebounds at -104
Despite the Hawks' issues on the glass throughout the season, Atlanta's big man Clint Capela should easily cover this line.
With Onyeka Okongwu being out, Capela's role on the team has significantly increased. He should see more touches in the paint and would likely have more chances to clean the glass as well.
Clint Capela should have an easier time winning down low against the Bulls, who may be without Andre Drummond, whose status is questionable for tonight's game.
