Joey’s PrizePicks Palooza Wednesday June 5th

Welcome back to another addition of my Prizepicks Palooza article. We have a rare combination of both WNBA and NBA games I thought they were going to keep them on separate days but we have a lot of fun basketball to watch so make sure to support the WNBA tonight before the NBA finals they timed it so you can watch both. That being said let’s get both WNBA and NBA props.

Plays of the Day

Since Monkey Knife Fight is offering fantasy props for the WNBA I already mentioned one play I like for both sites HERE. So consider that a bonus play! Now let’s get to some NBA props for this exciting NBA finals.

DeMarcus Cousins UNDER 35 fantasy points: He is coming off his first start since game 2 of the first round of the playoffs. He came out strong putting up 11/10/6 with 2 steals. That is a great start as he’s getting acquainted again with the NBA. He has a tough matchup against Marc Gasol who has been the keystone of this defense. He has been stopping the East’s best big men. Cousins is no different than Vuc or Embiid and Gasol should be able to shut him down tonight.

Natasha Cloud UNDER 24 fantasy points: Last game when Elena Delle-Donne joined the team Cloud’s usage rate dropped from 16% to 12.5% which is huge for a point guard. Her involvement in the offense become much less when the star comes back to an offense everyone takes a hit. This is the first time this year we will see a Mystics team at full strength as Messaman goes overseas tomorrow to play at Spain. This will probably be one of Cloud’s lowest scoring totals of the season and with the blowout risk I’m happy to go under here at 24. Once it goes below 22 it’ll be tough to say go under.
