Al Horford (BOS) Over 10.5 Points/Jaylen Brown (BOS) Over 0.5 Steals

While Robert Williams seemingly will be back in limited fashion, I still like Horford in this game. While playing it at this time is a little risker considering Williams minutes are still unknown, Horford will likely see enough volume to overcome that. Even if WIlliams does play considerable minutes, Horford will still be in the game playing the four. In the series so far, Horford has been phenomenal, scoring 20 and 16 points in 41 and 32 minutes (before fouling out). Horford is likely to continue to see this crazy workload, and should be able to easily get in double digits. Brown has three & four steals against the turnover heavy nets so far, after averaging 1.1 on the season. Brown will likely be in store for another 40+ minute game, and should have plenty of opportunities to grab these steals. 

OG Anunoby (TOR) Over 1.5 3PM/Tobias Harris (PHI) Over 5.5 Rebounds

Both of these spots have been very consistent during the playoffs so far, and we’re looking to ride that wave to the bank. OG has gone 2-5, 4-7, and 4-9 this series from beyond the arc, and should be in store for another 40+ minute workload. This is make or break for the Raptors, and without Barnes, there is still some extra usage to go around. Harris has dominated on the boards, grabbing 6, 10, and 12 rebounds in the playoffs so far. While Joel Embiid is also a good rebounder, with the total workload placed upon him in the playoffs, we’re seeing other guys step up and grab boards. He’s 3/3 on this number in the playoffs, and I’m expecting another consistent performance. 

OG ANUNOBY (TOR) Over 3.5 3PM

Lets keep the momentum going with OG Anunoby. Without Barnes over the last two games we’ve seen OG step up in the scoring department, knocking down four 3PM in back to back games. The Raptors are up against the Wall, and if we see them fall down early we could definitely expect an uptick in 3PA. We’ve seen OG’s role increase in these situations, and with him performing well over these last couple games, I’m expecting increased volume once again.
