As the NBA playoffs heat up, betting enthusiasts are eyeing some key player performances and matchups to capitalize on. Tim Hardaway Jr. is expected to continue his shooting spree, particularly from beyond the arc, with an over/under set at 2.5 threes against the Detroit Pistons.

In the Milwaukee Bucks vs. Indiana Pacers matchup, Andrew Nembhard is projected to surpass his points and assists threshold of 16.5, especially with Milwaukee's Damian Lillard sidelined due to an Achilles injury. Ivica Zubac also figures to be a focal point for the LA Clippers against the Denver Nuggets, with an over/under of 32.5 for combined points, rebounds, and assists.

In the Celtics vs. Magic contest, Derrick White's performance may be pivotal with Jrue Holiday absent. Bettors should keep an eye on the Pacers, who have homecourt advantage and are favored to cover a 7.5 point spread against a struggling Bucks team.
