Betting Analysis

Pick: Jimmy Butler over 0.5 made 3s (-105 at FanDuel)

Gilles Gallant — If we don't know by now, "Playoff" Jimmy Butler is a different player in the postseason.

He hit at least one 3-pointer in 11 of 14 playoff games last season. The key factor here is attempts, as his 3-point attempt volume has doubled in the postseason during his time with the Heat. Last year versus the Hawks, he hit a 3 and attempted at least two in each game.

He also hit a 3 in two of three games against Atlanta this year; since the All-Star break, the Hawks rank in the bottom 10 in opponent 3-point shooting percentage.

I’d play this down to -110. Butler is 15-for-33 on 3s in 26 games since February 1, hitting 45.4% in that stretch. If the man would just shoot, we can cash this fairly quickly.

Pick: Jimmy Butler over 0.5 made 3s (-105 at FanDuel)
