After a two-day break, the NBA Finals are back in action. Tonight the series shift away from the desert into Fiserv Forum with the Phoenix Suns up in the series 2-0 against the Milwaukee Bucks. Let’s get into Monkey Knife Fight NBA picks for July 11.
Tonight’s Top Monkey Knife Fight NBA Finals Player Prop Picks
Bucks vs. Suns NBA Finals ‘More or Less’ Contest (3x Buy-In)
The first Monkey Knife Fight contest gives “more or less” choices on stars Giannis Antetokounmpo (32.5 points) and Devin Booker (28.5 points).
Antetokounmpo is coming off a big 42-point performance in Game 2, and that was mostly due to being more aggressive. His teammate Khris Middleton had an uncharacteristic night, only shooting 15 times compared to his usual 20-plus, and that led to only 11 points. Middleton will not have that same kind of game considering elite shooters like him rarely have back-to-back bad nights. Look for Middleton to be more aggressive while Giannis goes into more of a facilitator role.
Booker, on the other hand, should be able to eclipse his 28.5-point mark. For the first time in what seems like forever, Booker was extremely efficient, shooting 7-for-12 on 3-pointers. In fact, he had not made five or more 3-pointers in a game since the first-round clincher against the Lakers when he made eight. This feels like it could be a high-scoring game once again, and that means Booker will likely be taking plenty of 3-pointers to make sure the Suns keep pace.

Suns vs. Bucks NBA Finals ‘More or Less’ Contest (2.5x Buy-In)
Middleton is in a nice position to redeem himself and let the shot attempts run wild tonight. After scoring only 11 points on 5-for-16 shooting from the field (1-for-6 on 3-pointers), it is time to show Milwaukee what it was missing in Game 2. Prior to that debacle, Middleton had scored at least 26 points in each of the previous three games. Middleton is already playing 40-plus minutes per game on a regular basis. With the Bucks’ season theoretically on the line, he should make the most out of every minute.
Monkey Knife Fight put Chris Paul in a precarious spot for this contest. While he is playing well, he needs 43.5 fantasy points to come through here. That seems lofty. The Suns may win Game 3, but 43.5 fantasy points for Paul is too much. In fact, Paul has not exceeded five rebounds or 10 assists in each of his last five games or in six of his last seven. Those kinds of ancillary stats are what will get Paul above the mark considering he is not a score-first point guard.
