This line feels very reachable for a shooter like Kennard.
He’s one of the purest catch-and-shoot players in the league and the type of guy who doesn’t need 10+ attempts to cash a three-point prop. Two made threes can happen very quickly with him.
What makes this spot interesting is how defenses usually focus heavily on the stars in playoff games. That naturally creates space for role players standing around the perimeter — and Kennard is exactly the kind of player who benefits from that attention shifting elsewhere.
He also moves extremely well without the ball, which is why he constantly finds open looks even when defenses know he’s hunting threes.
And honestly, 1.5 is not a big number for Kennard. One decent shooting stretch or a couple of clean kick-out opportunities and this can cash early.
If the game stays competitive and the minutes are solid, Kennard should get enough chances from deep.
