Leg 1: Celtics ML
The Milwaukee Bucks have been playing improved basketball lately, but the Boston Celtics have been on another level all season, especially in their building, as they sport a 31-3 record at home. The Bucks are just 17-17 on the road this season, so we’ll trust the best team in basketball to get the job done at home with the Bucks missing Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Leg 2: Jayson Tatum 25+ Points
Since returning from the All-Star break, Jayson Tatum has dropped at least 25 points in ten of 12 games, and while the Bucks have improved defensively as of late, I can easily imagine them crumbling on the road in this spot. Tatum should be excited about this outing, especially considering his recent play, so we’re confident we can ride him out here.
Leg 3: Jaylen Brown 20+ Points
Jaylen Brown is playing arguably his most consistent basketball of the entire season right now. He has had at least 20 points in all 12 games since returning from the All-Star break. What else is there to ask for?
Leg 4: Jrue Holiday 4+ Assists
Given our scoring expectations for Tatum and Brown, we’ll look for Jrue Holiday to dish out at least four assists like he’s done in 16 of his last 18 games.
Legs 5 & 6: Damian Lillard 3+ Threes, 6+ Assists
Damian Lillard has knocked down at least two shots from beyond the arc in 15 of his last 16 games. With Giannis sidelined, his absence will be worth another three in our book for Dame.
We’ll also target him to have at least six assists since he’s on an absolute tear as a facilitator right now, averaging about 11 assists per game over his last five games with an average of 18.4 potential assists per game. As an individual bet, also target Lillard to have at least eight assists at +160, as his recent production warrants it.
Legs 7 & 8: Khris Middleton 10+ Points, 4+ Assists
To keep this simple, Khris Middleton had 22 points and seven assists on Sunday against Phoenix with Giannis sidelined. All we need tonight is ten points and four assists, which Middleton has shown he can do.
Leg 9: Malik Beasley 10+ Points
To close out our parlay, with the Bucks likely trailing for the entire game, they’ll need to chuck up a ton of shots from deep, opening up the window for Malik Beasley to get hot from three. He dropped 17 points on Sunday without Giannis on the court, marking it as his fourth consecutive game scoring at least ten points, so we’ll hope for more of the same tonight.
