Cade Cunningham player prop bet for Game 2 vs Knicks

April 21, 2025 by Detroit Bad Boys

2025 NBA Playoffs - Detroit Pistons v New York Knicks

Keep doubling… Cade will figure it out

Send two, send three, send the whole team. That was the New York Knicks ’ game plan versus Cade Cunningham and the young Detroit Pistons .

That expected way of playing resulted in 12 Cunningham assists. Malik Beasley, Ausar Thompson, and Tim Hardaway Jr. received three dimes a piece from the 1st time All-Star.

New York will likely lean on doubles and blitzes to force these other players to beat them. Luckily for you, it’s time to make some easy money because Cunningham won’t shoot that poorly doubles or not.

Today’s No Sweat bet is Cunningham’s points + assists via FanDuel . Cunningham will come through on the player prop and the game overall. Throughout the NBA playoffs , all customers will receive a No Sweat Same Game Parlay every weekend. If your SGP ticket doesn’t win, you’ll still get Bonus Bets back!

Cade Cunningham OVER 36.5 Pts + Ast at -112 odds

Send two to the ball, and Cade makes the right decision. With Hardaway and Beasley playing string music on the nets, Cunningham’s assists total will be up there.

Beasley shot 6-12, and Hardaway was 3-8 from deep in Game 1. Tobias Harris created some of his buckets (4-5 from 3), but if he stays sizzling, he’ll also get more baskets from Cade.

Jalen Duren didn’t finish around the cup like his usual paint-dominant self. He’ll be matched up with a not-so-great defender in Karl-Anthony Towns and a plus-defender in Mitchell Robinson. Those first playoff games jitters are out of the way and count on more Cade-to-Duren lobs to pad Cade’s assist total.

Keep in mind Cunningham had 12 assists in Game 1 while only getting one to Duren. Those two connected on two assists per game(!) in the regular season. You can bet your bucks they won’t see a number as low as Game 1 again.

Cade had 33 points + assists in Game 1, and that was with him shooting like crap. He went 8/21 from the field. OG Anunoby was a pest, but it’s nothing Cade hasn’t seen before. He still got where he wanted, with Anunoby covering him and through the blitzes. Cade just missed shots he usually makes. Runners, hook shots, and midrange jumpers are all staples in his game that didn’t go down in Game 1.

This was his first playoff game as well. Seeing the bottom of the bottom with him and his team allowing a 21-0 fourth-quarter run , expect the All-Star to bounce back in a major way. He will have a signature game in the Garden where he carves up the Knicks with breadbasket passes, and I don’t see your contest jumpers.

The Knicks can keep running the same scheme on Cade if they want, but great players adjust. The assists are easy money if his shooters connect and Duren plays his game. Cade will get back to his regular self as a scorer no matter what they throw at him. Book it.
