After blowing two 20-plus point leads to start the second round of the 2025 NBA Playoffs, the Boston Celtics finally punched back in Game 3. Jayson Tatum delivered a 22-point, nine-rebound, five assist performance with five three-pointers to help lift his team to a 115-93 win over the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden. Now trailing 2-1 in the series, the Celtics show signs of life heading into tonight’s Game 4.
Will Tatum deliver an even better outing to power Boston to another victory, or will the pressure prove too much? Here’s the top Jayson Tatum prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for Celtics vs. Knicks Game 4.
Best Jayson Tatum prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Tatum’s prop bet lines at 27.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 3.5 three-pointers. His combined PTS + REB + AST line sits at 43.5.
As the Celtics look to battle back from this deficit, they’re 6.5-point favorites on the road in tonight’s contest with -258 odds to win on the Moneyline. The total sits at 208 combined points between these two teams.
In the postseason so far, Tatum’s averages read 26.1 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 5.6 assists per contest. He’s not shooting well from the field at 39.5%, but Tatum’s contributions across other categories have made up for his lack of efficiency to this point. If he can regain his scoring form seen during the first round of the playoffs, the Celtics will have a much easier time coming back in this series.
Over 3.5 three-pointers looks like a solid bet for tonight’s action. He’s crossed that mark in four of seven playoff games this season, and he’s seeing good volume with at least eight attempts from beyond the arc in all but two appearances. The +120 odds on this line make it a very attractive pick for Game 4.
However, under 27.5 points still looks good at -120 odds, even if Tatum does find his stroke from deep again. He’s been held under this line in four of seven contests against the Knicks this season and notably hasn’t tallied even 24 points or more in three games of this series so far. The defensive looks New York throws Tatum’s way clearly bother him, and even if he does crack the code, he’s still not shooting well from the field overall.
