Domantas Sabonis and the Kings have a difficult matchup tonight on the road. They face the Boston Celtics, who own a 27-10 record and the second seed in the Eastern Conference.
The Kings are 11.5-point underdogs and the game carries a total over/under of 226.5 on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Below, I have featured my favorite Sabonis prop bet to consider from this contest.
Best Domantas Sabonis Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Domantas Sabonis under 13.5 rebounds (-120)
Sabonis is one of the best rebounders in the league, having led the NBA in each of the past two seasons. He’s in second place this year with an average of 13.8 per game.
It’s never easy to bet the under, especially against one of the top rebounders, but there’s a good opportunity to do so tonight. The Kings will face the Celtics in Boston, which is a difficult matchup for Sabonis.
The Celtics have a tall lineup with Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis in the front court, and Derrick White and Jrue Holiday as the guards. Al Horford also plays an important role off the bench.
The team has been solid on the glass and defending the rim, and it’s entered the top five of both since Porzingis made his season debut. The Celtics allow the fourth least points in the paint and grab the third most rebounds per game since Porzingis’ debut on Nov. 25.
The 7-2 center has played just 14 games but has such a large impact on the Celtics’ interior schemes. While he’s not a terrific rebounder, he creates space for the rest of the team to grab boards. Tatum leads the team with 9.2 rebounds per game.
While the Celtics do a great job at rebounding, they’re just 15th in the league in opponents’ rebounding per game. It leaves some wiggle room for Sabonis, but the interior defense and team-wide rebounding should counter the Kings’ big tonight.
