Celtics vs. 76ers Prediction
I love this prop in this game. I think Brown and Tatum will each have huge games in this series just like in game 3. Tatum will get his share of points in this game, but Brown will also get his fair share of points too. We’ve seen that Tatum can go off for 30+ points and Brown can still score 25+ points. This is an easy bet for me because I think 24.5 points is too low for Brown. Make sure to lock this in before the game.
Celtics vs. 76ers Prop Pick: Jalyen Brown Over 24.5 points (-106).
