Leg 1: Pacers Moneyline -130
The Eastern Conference Final has been a relentless see-saw battle. The Pacers and Knicks have traded leads and momentum throughout the first two games, a trend that should continue into Game 3.
Indiana has been almost unvanquishable in the playoffs. The Pacers are 10-2 straight up and a nearly identical 9-3 against the spread. That sample includes a four-game win streak, in which they have covered the spread each time out.
Unfortunately for the Knicks, they are traveling in the opposite direction. New York is just 2-4 over its last six, covering the number in just two of those contests. On Sunday, they face an uphill battle trying to snap that trend as road underdogs.
The line on the Pacers has come down from the opening, implying that sharp bettors are getting a piece of New York as underdogs. While the Knicks will be up to the task on Sunday night, we expect the Pacers to pull away late. It might not be enough to cover the spread, but Indiana should be able to cash outright. The Pacers’ moneyline is the play.

Leg 2: OG Anunoby Over 15.5 Points -120
The Knicks continue to get production from throughout their lineup, but we think OG Anunoby has something special in store on Sunday night.
Anunoby’s usage metrics and analytics profile point toward another robust showing at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Knicks’ swingman has played north of 35 minutes in five straight, correlating with increased production and scoring. Across that sample, Anunoby has gone north of 15 points in four of those five contests while averaging 14.0 shot attempts per game.
The Knicks want to maximize production from Anunoby. More importantly, he’s responded with solid showings virtually every time he steps on the court. We’re betting on another standout performance, with Anunoby eclipsing 15.5 points in Game 3.
Leg 3: Pascal Siakam Under 30.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists
Pascal Siakam‘s player props are on the rise. After a dominant Game 2, the Pacers’ big man has seen a sharp increase in most of his wagering options; however, at least some of those props are teetering on the unattainable end of the spectrum. Specifically, we’re targeting the under on his 30.5 points, rebounds, and assists offering.
Siakam seemingly came out of nowhere on Friday night, recording a game-high 39 points. Still, that represents a significant departure from regular production and output. The former first-round pick hadn’t eclipsed 21 points in any of his previous eight outings, averaging just 16.0 points per game over that stretch.
While he finds ways to chip in with assists and rebounds, Siakam also doesn’t take over in either regard. With an inevitable decline in his scoring metrics, Siakam will be hard-pressed to eclipse 30.5 points, rebounds, and assists. We’re planting our flag in the under in this one.

Pacers vs Knicks Game 3 Parlay +520
- Pacers Moneyline -130
- OG Anunoby Over 15.5 Points
- Pascal Siakam Under 30.5 Points, Rebounds & Assists
The Pacers’ late-game surges have propelled them to victory this postseason, a trend that should persist into Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Final. Parlaying Pacers moneyline with the over on OG Anunoby’s points prop and the under on Pascal Siakam’s points, rebounds, and assists prop could net bettors a potential return of +520.
