💰 Best Celtics vs. Grizzlies player prop bet odds & expert picks: March 31
Here are my best Celtics vs. Grizzlies player prop bet odds and expert picks for tonight's NBA matchup. You can also check out our NBA player prop odds tool for the latest NBA odds at the best legal sportsbooks in your region.
🏀 Best Jaren Jackson Jr. prop pick: Over 1.5 3-pointers ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -106 via FanDuel ($10 to win $9.43)
Jackson’s 3-point prop is always worth considering, especially in a matchup against the Celtics. Given the number of attempts the team takes from deep, it’s easy to engage in a 3-point contest with Boston.
Jackson has hit multiple triples in five straight outings, averaging three per contest. He’s hit this Over in seven of his last 10 contests. I like this Over at -115 or better.
🏀 Best Desmond Bane prop pick: Over 2.5 3-pointers ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: +130 via bet365 ($10 to win $13)
Sticking with the 3-point theme, Bane is worth backing as the Grizzlies' best shooter in this market. Bane hit five triples against the Los Angeles Lakers over the weekend, which marked the club's first game without Jenkins.
Bane has only cleared this mark four times in his last seven games, but he's logged a 60% hit rate against Boston. He’s averaging 3.8 triples in his last five meetings with the Celtics, and there's a solid chance the Grizzlies will be playing from behind in this one.
📊 Best Desmond Bane prop bet odds
🏀 Best Jayson Tatum prop pick: Under 27.5 points ⭐⭐
Best odds: -128 via FanDuel ($10 to win $7.81)
This line is as low as 26.5 at most of our best NBA betting sites, so grab this Under at FanDuel before it’s too late. Tatum has only cleared this mark in two of his past five outings while averaging 26 points.
I project 25.7 points for Tatum on Monday, suggesting a solid edge on this Under. It’s worth playing as long as the line stays at 27.5 or better.
