The Phoenix Suns are riding a four-game win streak and seem to finally be figuring things out as the NBA season hits the home stretch. With that said, they face a real roadblock tonight in a very talented Boston Celtics squad.
Here are the best Devin Booker prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook as the star guard looks to propel his team to their fifth-straight victory.
Best Devin Booker prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Booker’s prop lines at 24.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 2.5 made three-pointers. His combined PTS + REB + AST line is 35.5.
The Suns are +200 underdogs on the Moneyline in this contest with a game total of 221 points on DKSB. This won’t be an easy one for Phoenix as they face a Celtics team ranking top-five in both DEFRTG and opponent points allowed per game. However, it’s worth mentioning that Jayson Tatum is doubtful to play, so Boston takes a significant hit in both scoring and rebounding if their superstar doesn’t suit up.
While Booker is known for his scoring prowess, he’s embraced a growing role as a playmaker in recent weeks. The 28-year-old is dishing out 8.2 dimes per contest since the All-Star break, and he’s tallied at least seven assists in 10 of his last 15 games. The odds on his assists prop over aren’t splashy at -130, but it’s an avenue to start a betting card with tonight. The ball will be in Booker’s hands plenty against one of the league’s true contenders.
With that said, he’s almost deferred to teammates too much lately. Booker has only scored 25+ points four times in his last 10 games and six times in his last 15. With his lower output in the points department as of late, I’m backing him to go under 24.5 points tonight at -115 odds. The Celtics’ defense is no joke and Booker is just inconsistent where putting the ball in the hoop is concerned.
