NBA Player Props: May 25, 2026

Here are my top player-prop picks for May 25, 2026 — quick, straightforward reads on who I like to go over or under their point lines.

Player props: May 25, 2026

Jalen Brunson — Over 26.5 points (Odds: 1.87). The Knicks have been rolling and Brunson looked strong in the last outing, dropping 30. When New York plays on the road he still shoulders a heavy portion of the scoring load, so I’m expecting another big game from him and think he clears this total.

James Harden — Over 18.5 points (Odds: 1.97). Cleveland is in a tough spot down 3-0, and Harden hasn’t been at his best in this series so far. I expect him to be more assertive in Game 4 and take more shots, which makes the over a sensible play.

Josh Hart — Under 12.5 points (Odds: 1.87). After two strong games at home, Hart was quieter in Game 3 and finished with about 12 points. Opposing defenses are paying closer attention to him now, and role players often see their numbers dip on the road. I’m leaning to him staying under the line again.
