As the NBA season reaches its conclusion, the Boston Celtics are on the brink of completing a sweep against the Dallas Mavericks. Despite the series not living up to expectations in terms of competitiveness, there is still a chance for some exciting moments before we potentially say goodbye to the season. In this article, I will explore the betting opportunities that are available.
The Celtics and Mavericks will face off on Friday at 8:30 PM ET. My bet for this game is on Luka Doncic scoring 25+ points, Jayson Tatum scoring 25+ points, and the total points being over 201, with odds of +128 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Initially, I had planned to bet on Doncic scoring over 8.5 points in the first quarter, but the odds changed.
Luka Doncic is crucial for the Mavericks in this elimination game, and his performance could determine their survival in the series. In Game 3, he scored an impressive 27 points despite fouling out and is expected to play a significant role in trying to prevent a sweep.
Jayson Tatum might have a standout performance tonight with a high volume of shot attempts expected, including multiple three-pointers. Although his shooting has been inconsistent, a big night from him could lead to a potential NBA Finals MVP performance.
To balance out the odds of my parlay bet, I added an over on total points which has hit in two out of three finals games so far. This bet should continue to be successful in tonight’s matchup between the Celtics and Mavericks.
In conclusion, as we approach the end of the season, it’s essential to consider all possible betting opportunities before making any final decisions. With Luka Doncic and Jayson Tatum both having standout performances tonight and an over on total points being likely to hit again; this could be an exciting game for fans and bettors alike!
