                        NBA player prop picks, odds: Three best 2026 NBA Playoffs prop bets for Thunder vs. Spurs, Game 6
Experts recommend backing De'Aaron Fox and Isaiah Hartenstein ahead of Western Conference Finals clash

SportsLine experts have released player prop predictions for Game 6 of the 2026 NBA Western Conference Finals between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs. The game is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. ET on Thursday, 28 May 2026. Analysts Mike Barner and Larry Hartstein recommend backing De'Aaron Fox for over 9.5 combined rebounds and assists, and Isaiah Hartenstein for over 7.5 points. Another expert highlights Dylan Harper’s rebounding potential, noting his consistent performance against the Thunder.

De'Aaron Fox began the Western Conference Finals dealing with an injury but has been productive since returning. SportsLine NBA expert Mike Barner is expecting him to exceed his rebound plus assist total on Thursday, noting that Fox has provided at least 12 combined rebounds and assists in all three games since his return from an ankle injury. Barner pointed out that Fox has played at least 31 minutes in all three games since returning, averaging 12.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 6.3 assists per game. Across five regular season games against the Thunder, Fox averaged 3.6 rebounds and 6.2 assists.

SportsLine expert Larry Hartstein is backing Isaiah Hartenstein on Thursday night. Hartenstein has taken on a huge role in this series after playing just 12 minutes in Game 1. He has scored double-digit points in three of his past four games and is shooting 12 of 19 from the field in the past two games. Hartenstein serves as the primary defender against Victor Wembanyama, and his presence has limited San Antonio's offensive rebounding. Hartenstein is on an 88-58 roll on NBA player props.

The Spurs have utilised a seven-man rotation, placing Dylan Harper in the 24-28 minute range. SportsLine expert Prop Bet Guy highlighted Harper’s rebounding potential, noting he has cleared the rebounding prop line in 11 of 15 full playoff games, including three of four against the Thunder. Harper has benefited from his half-court role as a baseline cutter and has been active defensively as the Thunder limit Wembanyama’s rebounding opportunities.

Barner is currently on a 138-97 run on NBA picks and has returned over $2,200 in betting profit for $100 players on player props. The recommendations come as the series heads to its sixth game, with experts advising those following their NBA betting advice to consider these statistical trends.
