Best Celtics-Hawks NBA player props: Fade Jayson Tatum
Jayson Tatum Player Prop: O/U 3.5 3-pointers
Tatum enters Sunday’s game after notching back-to-back 29-point performances. He has made over 3.5 3-pointers in each of those performances, including shooting 4 of 11 from 3-point range in the Game 3 loss. But OddsShopper models indicate sportsbooks have set the betting line listed too high based on Tatum’s recent success.
OddsShopper Premium gives Tatum a 56% chance of cashing on the under, making for an ROI of 4%. It is the highest ROI of any Celtics-Hawks bet, but there are a plethora of other high-rated player props on OddsShopper’s NBA page.
Tatum turned in the most productive season of his career, averaging a career-high 30.1 points per game to go along with 8.8 rebounds and 4.1 assists. But he is actually shooting a lower percentage on 3-pointers compared to last year, averaging 3.2 per game during the regular season.
The Hawks have a tough task in trying to limit Tatum and the high-powered Celtics offense. But look for the Celtics star to have some regression to the mean in the 3-point department, making the under 3.5 3-pointers (-115 on PointsBet) a valuable wager.
Bettors should be sure to check back to OddsShopper tools throughout the NBA Playoffs to find the best value on moneylines, spreads and player props!
