Ousmane Dieng (Milwaukee Bucks) Under 1.5 Threes Made (+124)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Milwaukee Bucks gear up to face the formidable Boston Celtics, all eyes will be on Ousmane Dieng. While he's shown flashes of brilliance, the numbers suggest we should lean towards the under on his three-pointers made, set at 1.5. Over his last five games, Dieng has averaged just one three-pointer, and his home stats reveal a slight uptick to 1.8, yet a deeper dive shows he's only managed 1.5 threes against the Celtics historically. His recent home cooking has been impressive, hitting the mark in his last three outings, but with the Celtics' stout perimeter defense, it's a different challenge altogether. With an expected stat value of 1.26, the odds seem to favor the under. Given the intensity of this matchup, Dieng might find it tough to get his usual looks, making the under a tempting play.

Neemias Queta (Boston Celtics) Under 8.5 Rebounds (+111)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Celtics prepare to face off against the Bucks, all eyes will be on Neemias Queta, but bettors might want to consider the under on his rebounding total of 8.5. While Queta has been a solid contributor, averaging nearly 9 boards in his last five outings, the matchup against Milwaukee presents unique challenges. In his previous five games against the Bucks, he's managed just 5.4 rebounds, and even on the road, that number dips to 6.7. With the Bucks boasting a strong defensive front and the versatility to limit opposing bigs, Queta's opportunities may be restricted. His recent performance shows a hit rate of only 50% in the last eight games, and with a model edge suggesting he'll land closer to 7.85 rebounds, the under feels like a savvy play. Look for him to struggle against the Bucks' formidable frontcourt, making this bet a compelling option.
