The Boston Celtics are once again an NBA powerhouse, and with Jayson Tatum is leading the way, they’re a contender to win back-to-back championships.
Tonight, Tatum and the C’s travel northward to face the Toronto Raptors at 7 p.m. EST. Here’s some of the top Tatum prop bets available on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Best Jayson Tatum prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Tatum’s prop lines on DraftKings Sportsbook sit at 25.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists. His PTS + REB + AST O/U is listed at 40.5.
Against the 25th-ranked Raptors defense, Tatum’s points line holds some serious appeal at -105 odds. This line seems a bit low for one of the league’s best scorers, so it’s likely due to the fact he’s gone under 25.5 points in three games against the Raptors so far this season with 24, 23, and 16 in those contests.
However, don’t let his production against Toronto scare you off. While he hasn’t gone over 25.5 points in his two appearances after the All-Star break, Tatum has exceeded that mark in 29 of 54 appearances this season, nearly a 54% clip. It’s not often that his points line will be this low, so this is a great opportunity to grab some additional value that isn’t typically available.
On a similar note, Tatum’s combined points and rebounds prop is worth considering, too. The line is set at 33.5 PTS + REB with the over listed at -125 odds. The 26-year-old has gone over this line in 31 of his 54 appearances, a 57.4% hit rate. He’s also exceeded 33.5 PTS + REB in four of his last five games. With the Celtics’ frontcourt missing Luke Kornet and Al Horford, plus opposing center Jakob Poeltl ruled out, this combo line is worth a sprinkle.
