Best Jaylen Brown prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook

Jaylen Brown O 6.5 Rebounds (-119)

Brown has been removed from the Celtics’ injury report after sitting out last night’s win over the Suns. While listed with a knee injury, this very clearly was just a rest day for the former NBA Finals MVP, given it was the first leg of a back-to-back set for Boston. The Celtics like to give Brown these rest days here and there, and the wing has a tendency to be very active on the glass in his next game.

Brown has missed five games this season and in his following start, he is averaging 8.8 rebounds per game and he has finished with at least seven boards in all five of these tilts. In general, Brown is having a great season as a rebounder, averaging a career-high 7.0 rebounds on 11.9 rebound chances per game.

The 29-year-old has grabbed 15 and eight rebounds in his first two starts following the All-Star break and Brown should exceed 6.5 rebounds in this potential nail biter with the Nuggets. Denver is only favored by 3.5 points on DraftKings Sportsbook and in the last five games Brown has played in that have been decided by 10 points or less, he is averaging 8.8 rebounds per game and has finished with at least seven rebounds in all these contests.
