Best NBA First Basket Scorer Picks for Sunday, May 26 (Target Luka Doncic, Mike Conley)

Looking to bet on a fun prop market in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals?

One way to get engaged from the jump ball is betting on the first basket scorer market, and we’ve seen the Dallas Mavericks end up with the first bucket in each of the first two games of this series.

In Game 1, Luka Doncic scored the first bucket, although it wasn’t on the first possession. Still, he took the first two shots of the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

In Game 2, Daniel Gafford caught an alley oop on the first possession for the first basket, just his fourth first basket of the season.
