The 2026 postseason has been a resurgence for the veteran stars, and today's Underdog NBA Picks are locked in on the leaders in Cleveland. As the Cavaliers look to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, their offensive usage will be centered around their most experienced playmaker.

James Harden NBA Underdog Pick: Higher Than 18.5 Points

James Harden has been the offensive engine for Cleveland, and his scoring floor has been significantly higher than this projection. He has cleared 18.5 points in four straight games, including a 30-point masterclass in Game 5 and 23 points in Game 6. In a do-or-die Game 7, his field goal attempts and trips to the charity stripe will be at a premium. Our Underdog NBA Picks lean heavily toward the Higher as Harden looks to carry the Cavs to the next round.

 

 

 

Paul Reed NBA Underdog Pick: Higher Than 7.5 Points

Paul Reed provided the spark Detroit needed in Game 6, pouring in 17 points off the bench. His energy on the offensive glass and ability to finish around the rim have made him a mismatch for Cleveland's second unit. Our NBA DFS Projections suggest that Reed will continue to see high-leverage minutes in Game 7, making 8 points a very comfortable target for tonight.
