Jayson Tatum is coming off a 30-point, nine-rebound, nine-assist performance against the Portland Trail Blazers last night. While teammate Jaylen brown (knee) is questionable to return tonight, Tatum remains in line as the Celtics’ go-to option in this one.
Here’s the top Tatum prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook for tonight’s game, which tips off at 10 p.m. EST.
Best Jayson Tatum prop bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Tatum’s prop lines at 27.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, and 3.5 three-pointers. His combined PTS + REB + AST line is 42.5.
The Celtics are -185 Moneyline favorites over the Kings tonight, while the game carries a total of 223.5 points on DKSB. The opposing Kings are 22nd in defensive rating, 17th in pace, and allow the 21st-most points to opponents per game.
One prop to check out is over 3.5 three-pointers for the Celtics star. While he’s gone under this line in his last three games, Tatum has actually hit four or more three-pointers in six of his last 10 appearances. On the season, he’s eclipsed 3.5 makes from long range 34 times in 65 appearances, a hit rate of 52.3%. The Kings allow the second-most made three pointers per game of any team while ranking dead-last in opponent three-point percentage at 38.4%. Since this Celtics’ shot diet attempt more long-range shots than any other squad (53.6% of their shot attempts come from distance), this is a great matchup for Boston’s shooters… especially Tatum. At -105 odds, this is one of the best props on the market.
For bettors seeking a more reliable prop line, check out the rebounds market. Tatum has recorded over 7.5 boards in 42 of his 65 games this season, nearly a 65% hit rate. Kings center Domantas Sabonis is questionable tonight and hasn’t played since March 17 due to an ankle issue. If he’s healthy this prop is a bit less safe, but either way, Tatum is a talented rebounder and should make an impact on the glass tonight. Over 7.5 rebounds is worth a look at -130 odds.
