Boston Celtics @ New York Knicks (10:00am)

Best Bet

Jalen Brunson
Over 6.5 Assists

Can guarantee the usage will be sky-high for Brunson, and the assist numbers have been strong all playoffs.

Brunson averages 7.8 assists per game this post-season, and in this series against the Celtics he’s going at 7.4 per game. More impressively, from Brunson’s 11 games this post-season he’s covered this line on 9 occasions.

Last start was one of those misses where Brunson only had 6 assists, but due to being blown out he only played 33 minutes. With the Knicks trying to close this series and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals, think we’ll see Brunson’s minutes back around the 40-mark.

Value Bet

Derrick White
25+ Points

Has been Boston’s most consistent performer all post-season and Derrick White will need to produce another huge game if the Celtics are any chance of fighting another day.

With Tatum out of action, White had 34 points in Boston’s Game 5 win – and when you throw in the curious case of Kristaps Porzingis, it will really be down to White and Jaylen Brown to carry this offensive load for the Celtics.

Averaging 22.6 points per game this series, the form is certainly there and there’s no doubt the volume will be there too.

SGM

Brunson Over 6.5 Assists / White 20+ Points / Robinson 6+ Rebounds = $3.60
