The NBA Finals continue on Friday as the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs meet for Game 2 at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas.

There are plenty of NBA betting angles to explore in the NBA Finals, but for Knicks vs Spurs Game 2, I'm targeting the three-point milestones market for sharpshooters Julian Champagnie and Landry Shamet.

Let's get into my NBA Finalsalternate line bets for Knicks vs Spurs Game 2 on Friday, June 5.


NBA Finals Alternate Line Bets for Knicks vs Spurs Game 2

  • Julian Champagnie 3+ Three-Pointers Made (+100) / 4+ Three-Pointers Made (+240)
  • Landry Shamet 2+ Three-Pointers Made (-150) / 3+ Three-Pointers Made (+200) 

Julian Champagnie Player Prop Bets

The Spurs' Julian Champagnie went full ladder last game and we're back for more.

He hit all five threes in the first half and the Knicks appear willing to live with it, to some extent, but that said, Champagnie was shut down in the second half.

I'm not as confident in the ladder in Game 2, nor is the value fully there — but I still like Champagnie to make over 2.5 threes.

For what it's worth, Champagnie has hit three or more threes in eight playoff games thus far. In those eight games, he has gotten four or more threes six times, but five or more in just half.

Despite making 11 threes in his last two games, I'm hesitant on him making five threes. That said, the value is great, and the Spurs missed some good looks in Game 1.

Look for Champagnie to continue jacking up threes from the corners and wings.

Landry Shamet Player Prop Bets

After making 11-of-12 from deep in the Eastern Conference Finals, Landry Shamet stayed hot from behind the arc in Game 1 with a 3-for-6 showing.

We should focus on the six attempts more than the three makes, and here's why: Shamet played 33 minutes in Game 1, and that's with Josh Hart logging 27 impactful minutes.

Shamet, at times, is the Hart sub if he doesn't have it going; Shamet is used as a spacer in some of the Knicks' five-out lineups built around Karl-Anthony Towns plus shooters.

He will play a vital role this series independent of Hart's production.

Shamet has made three or more from deep in five of his last six games and two or more in six of his last seven games. There's no reason to run from Shamet now.

Spurs vs Knicks Game 2 Player Props

  • Julian Champagnie 3+ Three-Pointers Made (+100) / 4+ Three-Pointers Made (+240)
  • Landry Shamet 2+ Three-Pointers Made (-150) / 3+ Three-Pointers Made (+200)
