The Warriors are hosting the Celtics on Monday for a rematch of the 2022 NBA Finals. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Boston is favored by 10 points and this game carries a total of 224 points.

Below, I have featured my favorite Stephen Curry prop to consider from this contest.

Best Stephen Curry Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Stephen Curry 31.5 Points + Assists (-105)

Curry (ankle) is listed as questionable for this matchup with the Celtics, but if the guard suits up, he should easily clear this 31.5 PA combo line.

The Warriors will be without Draymond Green (calf) and Jonathan Kuminga (ankle). In the two starts Curry has made without Green and Kuminga this season, Curry has finished with 26 points and seven assists vs. the Raptors and 31 points and eight assists vs. the Timberwolves, an average of 36 P+A per game.

With both Green and Kuminga off the floor this season, Curry’s usage rises 4.7 percentage points to 33.5% and he is averaging 28.1 points and 6.9 assists per 36 minutes. As for Curry’s matchup, Boston ranks sixth in defensive efficiency this season, but he has a long history of torching the Celtics and when these two rivals met in November in Boston, Curry finished with 27 points and nine assists, even with both Green and Kuminga available. Plain and simple, this 31.5 PA line is too low for Curry on Monday.
