NBA betting picks for today's playoff games

Knicks at Celtics

Jaylen Brown 25+ points/Boston to win (+152)

The Boston Celtics will organize the New York Knicks in the last game of the defending champs of the season, but it is hardly of crucial importance for Boston. On Monday, Jayson Tatum suffered a broken Achilles, an injury that the 27-year-old also deals with the entire next season.

It will be interesting to see how Boston rises tonight. They are very long recorded to win this series (+460) and the NBA final (+2600). Can this group summarize with another victory before a hectic low season takes place?

When Jaylen Brown is switched on, I like your chances.

Jaylen Brown 25+ points/Boston win

Brown's head was in play 4 in another place, but historically he was brought to the plate when Boston's leading man is on the move. Here is a look at Brown's goal exit when he played more than 30 minutes in games without Tatum this season: 18, 26, 28, 35 and 36 points. This 36-point show came in a playoff game in the first round against a secondary defense in Orlando.

To add, JBS shooting columns look more attractive at home (48.5% FG% and 36.8% 3p%) than on the road (43.65 fg% and 26.8% 3P%). In fact, this year he scored an average of 24.5 points per game in the TD Garden.

Without Tatum – and practically no Kristaps Porzingis, these playoffs – the Celtics have no chance of extending their season without massive help from Brown. The home should be hot tonight and I expect Brown to answer the call.

JRUE Holiday over 16.5 points + Reb (+104)

We learned not to expect much from Jrue Holiday on the status sheet at this point in his career, but he will be responsible for more than his defense this evening.

Holiday networks 19.1 combined points and rebounds (PR) per 36 minutes when Brown is on the floor and is off the ground. While Tatum is a great rebounder, he is usually the one who reports the giveaway defense slices for the C -Des C, and Jrue takes it into his absence.

Here is a look at the PR edition of holidays in games without Tatum this season: 16, 18, 18, 19, 20 and 24 pr.

Jrue scored 16 points and 6 rebounds in the first home game of this series, and I think his numbers could look terribly similar tonight.

Warrior at Timberwolves

Brandin Podziemski over 19.5 points + Reb + branch (-110)

The Minnesota Timberwolves have a lead of the 3-1 series compared to the Golden State Warriors and are at the favorites of -560 Moneyline favorites this evening to reach the final of the Western Conference.

Even if this is the end of the Warriors in the 2024-25 season, I still think that we will receive a production of Podziemski this evening.

Podz played at least 33 minutes in three games in a row and achieves 15.1 potential rebounds and assists per game in this series. In his last two games, he took 8 three-point and 24 field goals in Total Field Goal, but only nailed 4 of these shots.

Its use is fantastic and the 37.2% trial scorer is prepared to find at least some of these recordings to find the bottom of the network.

Our NBA projections predict podziemski, 21.7 combined points, rebounds and assists in this.
