Philadelphia 76ers vs. Boston Celtics, 8:00PM ET
LEG 1: James Harden Over 8.5 Assists
James Harden absolutely took over Game 1 with a 45-point performance, so it's not surprising he came up short on assists. Our model projects him to clear this number easily, projecting him for 11.4 dimes. The Beard can erupt for massive scoring outbursts at any time, but he's also capable of dishing the ball with pristine efficiency. If Joel Embiid doesn't suit up, the Celtics will have to contain Harden to avoid a repeat of Game 1, which should lead to him passing the ball more.

LEG 2: Jaylen Brown Over 2.5 Three-Pointers
Jaylen Brown has hit this mark in four-straight postseason games after failing to do so in the first three of the playoffs. He's getting into his form and the Celtics will need to keep up the pace to hold off the 76ers in Game 2. Our model projects him to clear this number by a slim margin with 3 deep balls, but we expect Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum to do what they do best and run the floor together, which leads us to our final leg.
LEG 3: Jayson Tatum Over 27.5 Points
We're using an alternate line for our final leg. Tatum's regular line is set at 30.5, a mark he has flirted with all postseason, scoring 39, 30, 31 and 29 twice. Our model is projecting him for 33.1 points, and if you like his Over 30.5 points, go ahead and lock it into the parlay which will net you final odds of +700. The alternate leg will get us to +550, and with Tatum's penchant for hitting the hook, we're happy to take the slightly lower payout to further avoid a half-point point loss.
