We have another exciting slate of NBA Playoff games, each with a lot on the line as the underdogs get a chance to come back at home.

The Orlando Magic, Los Angeles Lakers, and Philadelphia 76ers are all looking for their first win. 

Meanwhile, the Cleveland Cavaliers, New York Knicks, and Denver Nuggets want to maintain their dominance and take a 3-0 lead on the series. 

Here are some exciting player prop bets to consider when wagering on these games.

NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets: Miles McBride (NYK) Over 7.5 Points -132 

Through the first two games of the NBA Playoffs, Miles McBride has managed to step up in the minutes he has played for the New York Knicks.

McBride smashed this over in his previous two games, dropping 21 points in game one and nine in game two.

With how well the Knicks' role players have been playing, it could be easy to see Miles McBride have another big night.

NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets: Joel Embiid (PHI) Over 2+ Threes Made -145 

Joel Embiid has knocked down two three point shots in both games one and two. 

Embiid has managed to find his shot so far in this series with New York, and with the team returning to Philly, that trend may continue. 

During the regular season Joel Embiid has averaged 3.6 three-point attempts a game, and considering that Embiid isn't the best-shooting big man in the league, he can still knock down 3-point shots when left open.

We will take over this player prop.

NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets: Donovan Mitchell (CLE) Over 25.5 Points -115

The Orlando Magic still have not found an answer for Donovan Mitchell, who has torched them throughout the entire series. 

With how hot Mitchell is, it's hard to see him come back down to earth even with the Cavs playing on the road.

We are taking over on Donovan Mitchell points.

NBA Playoff Player Prop Bets: Jalen Suggs (ORL) Over 1.5 Steals -113 

The Magic need to lean on what got them to the NBA Playoffs and that's their strong defense.

Jalen Suggs has been the defensive catalyst throughout the regular season. In the postseason, he managed to get at least one steal in the first two games of the series so far as well. 

It may be a stretch considering Suggs could be playing a bit banged up. However, considering the Magic will be playing at home and that they are in desperation for spark from somewhere.

NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets: Anthony Davis (LAL) Over 1.5 Blocks -186 

Anthony Davis may not have been a finalist for Defensive Player of the Year, but his defensive impact could not be understated. 

The Los Angeles Lakers big man has continued to be a force during the NBA postseason, specifically in regards to blocking shots.

Davis has blocked one or more shots in three of their past four games.

It's likely for Anthony Davis to smash this prop bet.

NBA Playoffs Player Prop Bets: Michael Porter Jr. (DEN) Under on 17.5 Points -115 

This one is a little out there, based on how well Michael Porter Jr. has been playing. However, considering how the Los Angeles Lakers will be returning to the Crypto.com arena and how close they managed to play the Denver Nuggets; we could see the Lakers making a defensive stand and stealing a win in their first home 2024 NBA Playoff game.

Through this, we can see Michael Porter Jr. underperforming tonight.

Taking into account how well some players perform on the road vs. at home, Porter Jr. and the rest of the Nuggets could have their first off game.
