With the NBA Finals tied at 2-2, the Milwaukee Bucks head back to the desert for a pivotal Game 5 matchup against the Phoenix Suns. Since the Finals can be such a random outcome of events, playing on Monkey Knife Fight can be a lot more beneficial to your bankroll. If you’ve never played on this site before, it is a new style of NBA Fantasy that is essentially like trying to get a small parlay of prop picks correct.
MKF has tons of profitable contests for the public, but I will break down the two best areas to take advantage of. Without further ado, let’s take a look at who we’ll be placing our faith in tonight:
Monkey Knife Fight NBA Fantasy Picks | Bucks vs. Suns
It is important to note that, much like odds that update throughout the day, contests at MKF are subject to change. So if you like these NBA picks below, it is wise to jump on them quickly.
More or Less – Pick two correctly to make 3.6x Your Buy-In
Over/Under – Fantasy Points
Devin Booker needs to hit 28.5 points, a mark he’s exceeded twice already this series and nearly did another time in Game 1, with 27 points. Booker’s Game 3 effort, with 10 points on 3-for-14 shooting, is certainly not an area he wants to be heading in. Nevertheless, this is a new game with plenty of new opportunities to be had. Despite being in foul trouble most of the last game, Booker took a series-high 28 shots, so I would expect him to continue being aggressive and get over 28.5 points.
Jrue Holiday needs to hit 7.5 assists, and he’s been right there at that mark the entire series — he had nine assists twice and seven twice as well. I’m going against the grain here and rolling the dice by taking the under, considering he may be due for a letdown performance — at least in assists. In this crucial matchup, I would expect Holiday to get more open looks at shots, rather than continue to be a facilitator.

Over/Under – Fantasy Points
Khris Middleton needs to hit 43.5 fantasy points tonight, and I think he can do it tonight. In order for Middleton’s fantasy points to be trending up, he needs to have a huge scoring output, which is something he should have the opportunity to do tonight. For a game like this, Giannis Antetokounmpo will likely be flying around the court, grabbing rebounds and dishing out assists. That should allow Middleton to focus on having a big scoring night.
DeAndre Ayton needs to hit 40.5 fantasy points tonight and I am feeling optimistic about that as well. Throughout the series, Ayton has proven to be more than just a two-trick pony with the points and assists. In addition to adding some blocks and steals, he’s even got games with four and five assists in this series. That may not seem like a scale-tipping stat to most, but this is a guy that consistently has over/under numbers of somewhere around 0.5 or 1.5 assists on his prop bets. Any little bit helps when we’re talking about fantasy points.
