Jayson Tatum Player Prop Stands Out As Best Nets-Celtics Bet
OddsShopper has recently introduced its premium tool to help bettors get the best value on a nightly basis. Keying in on the Nets-Celtics matchup, the Jayson Tatum player prop that the models are keen on is the over 2.5 3-pointers (-152 on Unibet). The models give this wager a 62% chance of hitting, making for a positive expected value of 2%.
Tatum has continued his torrid scoring pace despite the Celtics’ recent slide, where they have lost three of their past four games. He has scored over 30 points in six of the Celtics’ past seven games, hitting over 2.5 3-pointers in five of those contests. Tatum poured in 30 points and made three 3’s in a wild (and controversial) 125-121 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday night. He now leads the NBA in scoring (1,493 points).
“It was a back-and-forth game throughout the entire night,” said Tatum after the Lakers win, per Celtics Blog. “Guys on both ends made big shots, big rebounds, big plays, swings, momentum changes… obviously, going into overtime. I’m tired. I am exhausted. Obviously, some big-time players in that game on both sides, the history between both. But, 47 minutes [for me] tonight, I’m ready to go to sleep.”
Luckily for Tatum and the Celtics, they’ve been able to enjoy a few off days since the emotional win on Saturday and will now look to build on the momentum against a top Eastern Conference foe. Look for Tatum to continue the scoring, while also hitting the over on 3-pointers on Wednesday night.
