NBA Player Props Thursday June 16, 2022

Game 6: Celtics vs. Warriors, 9:00PM ET

PICK: Jayson Tatum OVER 7.5 rebounds (-134)

Tatum has been cleaning up the glass with regularity over the playoffs, notching multiple double-digit rebound games, including in Games 4 and 5 of this series. Naturally with a road game, shooting gets tougher for the away team - and the Warriors' road shooting numbers are down compared to their home shooting numbers this postseason. Tatum should get ample opportunities.

Looking for more Tatum action? Our NBA Best Bet tonight is a Player Performance Double featuring him.

PICK: Marcus Smart 3+ made threes (-113)

If the Celtics want to win and extend the series, they're going to need to make shots. Marcus Smart has been a source of high volume shooting from range this series, especially at the TD Garden where he has hit this total in both home games of the Finals. He shoots 44% from 3 at home this postseason compared with 20% on the road. He's due for a big game.

---

PICK: Steph Curry 2+ steals (+124)

The Celtics are setting records in the playoffs for turnovers, including Jayson Tatum who now holds the outright record for most TOs by a single player in a postseason. Curry has been a beneficiary of Boston's carelessness with the ball, cashing this plus money prop in four of the five games so far. We're sticking with the formlines.
