Towns played pretty poorly last game and ended with 13 rebounds.
He was in foul trouble early, which limited his minutes in the first half. He couldn’t really get into a scoring rhythm either, but nevertheless, he’s the big man on the Knicks. Between Josh Hart and himself, they’ll do the majority of the rebounding.
For a player that averaged 12.8 boards this season, this 10.5 line is too low.
Pick: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 10.5 Rebounds
[subheader sizedown=”false” text=”Jayson Tatum Over 15.5 Rebounds + Assists” subtext=”Knicks vs. Celtics, 7 p.m. ET” center=”false” logo1url=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/nba/100/bos.png” link1=”https://www.actionnetwork.com/nba/odds/boston-celtics” link1follow=”true” logo2url=”” link2=”” link2follow=”true” trailinglogourl=”” trailinglink=”” trailinglinkfollow=”true”][/subheader]
Tatum had a whopping 22 rebounds + assists in Game 1 of this series, as he finished with 16 rebounds and six assists.
It’s his third consecutive game covering this line, and I don’t expect him to slow down anytime soon. He’s proven to be a top-five player when it comes to filling up the stat sheet, and Wednesday will be no different.
I expect him to rebound well, and I expect him to get even more than six assists.
His potentials are there, as the Celtics shot a horrible 25% from 3 in Game 1 and he still posted six assists.
Improvement should come for the Celtics in this game, as they’ll certainly score more efficiently.
Pick: Jayson Tatum Over 15.5 Rebounds + Assists
