NBA Player Props Monday May 23, 2022

Game 4: Heat vs. Celtics, 8:30PM ET

PICK: Jayson Tatum OVER 3.5 threes (+115)

After going a dismal 1-7 from deep last game, we're backing Jayson Tatum to bounce back and knock them down tonight.

Going back to the start of the Bucks series, Tatum hit this number un three of four home games before Saturday night's loss, and should be able to get back on track with the volume very much already there.

As you'll see, our NBA Prop Bets section is projecting Tatum to hit 5 threes points tonight, which is way above his plus money line!

DimersBOT Projection: 5 threes

---

PICK: Bam Adebayo OVER 16.5 points (+115)

Before struggling in the first two games of the series, Bam Adebayo had been one of the players Celtics fans feared the most over recent years.

Since Jan 1, 2020, Bam played 14 games against Boston, averaging 19.1 points and 9.5 rebounds per game.

Now coming off the back off a huge 31, 10 and 6 in game 3, DimersBOT is expecting him to cause big trouble again, with his over on points looking like a great bet once again,

DimersBOT Projection: 19 points

---

PICK: Jaylen Brown OVER 24.5 points (-108)

Jaylen Brown started this series with back-to-back games of 24 points (when he line was 23.5 mind you) and then went to another level in game 3, scoring 40.

Now with Boston needing to go all out for a win, DimersBOT is projecting another big one, with a stat line prediction of 30 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists for Jaylen Brown.

DimersBOT Projection: 30 points
