76ers vs. Celtics Parlay Analysis
Philadelphia 76ers vs. Boston Celtics, 7:30PM ET
LEG 1: James Harden 10+ Assists
With no Joel Embiid, who is unlikely due to a knee complaint, Harden and Maxey are going to need to step up in Game 1 to make this competitive. Lucky for Philly, has proven that he can fill the void, hitting his assist line in five of the last seven games he's played without Embiid by his side. Our projections have him hitting 10 dimes here.

LEG 2: Al Horford Over 2.5 Assists
We caught onto this prop a couple of nights ago and it's one that we're sticking with - albeit with a little juice in Game 1. Horford has been passing more throughout the playoffs, averaging 38 passes and 5.5 potential assists per game, compared with 35 passes and 4.5 potential assists per game in the regular season. Those are small increases, but it's had a noticeable difference on his assist numbers with an average of four assists per game.
LEG 3: Marcus Smart Over 11.5 Points
Smart has been excelling on the offensive side of the floor during the postseason, hitting this mark in four of the six games, with the other two missing by 1.5 and 0.5 points respectively. He's found his shot and he's getting good looks on this offense with an average of 12.5 shot attempts per game. Our projections anticipate 13 points for Smart.
