Tyrese Maxey over 3.5 3-pointers
Maxey exploded in game 5, going 6-12 from deep en-route to scoring 30 points. With momentum firmly on the side of the Sixers, Maxey should be a focal point for bettors in game 6.
He’s averaging 2.9 threes per game on the season, but it’s worth noting that his role was everchanging throughout the first half of the season or so. It’s only recently that those 40-minute games have become the norm and although the Celtics have held him to under 10 points per game in his career, this feels like a great spot to catch a young player trending in the right direction and feeding off of confidence.
Joel Embiid over 30.5 points
I knew that the game 5 total of 28.5 was too low and a 2-point increase is still just as enticing. He’s put up 30+ in 3 consecutive games against the Celtics now, and the Sixers will be playing at home with a chance to clinch the series. If there is ever a spot to back the MVP, this is the one.
James Harden over 30 points + assists
You never quite know which version of James Harden you’re going to get, so the safer play is to back both primary offensive outputs. He’s only crossed the combined 30 mark twice during this series, but if we’re going to back Tyrese Maxey, we may as well back the man dishing him those open looks.
Harden could explode for 30 points any night easily, and adding assists just gives us some breathing room to work with.
Jayson Tatum over 27.5 points
It’s hard to imagine the Celtics losing three games in a row to this Sixers team, let alone the fact that they’d have choked the series with it. Regardless of what happens, their brightest star needs to shine, and Tatum should be comfortably able to eclipse 30 (his season average) if he plays like he did in game 5.
