Payton Pritchard (Boston Celtics) Over 11.5 Points (-189)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Celtics gear up to face the 76ers at home, all eyes should be on Payton Pritchard, particularly when it comes to his scoring. With an average of nearly 18 points over his last five games and an impressive 20 points in his last two home appearances, Pritchard is in a sweet spot. The 76ers have struggled to contain versatile guards, allowing him to exploit defensive lapses. Interestingly, Pritchard has not just been consistent; he's been on fire, hitting the over on his points prop in all of his last 10 outings. His recent averages against Philadelphia, while modest, don't tell the whole story. With the playoff atmosphere boosting energy levels and the Celtics needing to secure a win, expect Pritchard to rise to the occasion, comfortably eclipsing that 11.5 mark.

Andre Drummond (Philadelphia 76ers) Under 9.5 Rebounds (+102)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As Andre Drummond heads into this pivotal matchup against the Boston Celtics, we're leaning towards him finishing with fewer than 9.5 rebounds. Though he's had an impressive average of 11.2 boards in his last five games, the context of this game reveals a different story. On the road, his numbers dip to around 9 per outing, and historically against the Celtics, he's only pulling down about 7.6 rebounds. Given that Boston is known for their strong frontcourt defense, Drummond may find it challenging to rack up those numbers in TD Garden. Furthermore, he's only surpassed the 9.5 mark in four of his last six away games, which suggests a trend that we can't ignore. With an expected stat value of just 7.04, it seems more likely that Drummond will struggle to find his rhythm on the boards this time around. Betting the under feels like a smart play here.

Jaylen Brown (Boston Celtics) Over 29.5 Points + Rebounds (-152)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Celtics gear up to face the 76ers, all eyes should be on Jaylen Brown, especially when it comes to his combined points and rebounds prop. With an impressive average of 30.6 points over his last five games and 6.6 rebounds at home, he's been a force to reckon with. Against the Sixers, he's consistently put up about 25.6 points and snagged 6.2 boards when playing in Boston. His recent form is eye-catching, hitting the Over in 9 of his last 11 games, and an even more impressive 6 of 7 at home. With the stakes high and the crowd behind him, it feels like a perfect storm for Brown to exceed that 29.5 mark. The numbers suggest he's not just likely to hit it, but he might just soar well above it in this pivotal matchup.
