We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which are from PointsBet Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook today. We will discuss whether or not they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.
Jayson Tatum to score 30+ points and the Boston Celtics to win – Boosted from +210 to +230 with PointsBet Sportsbook
This prop needs Jayson Tatum to score at least 30 points and the Boston Celtics to beat the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Celtics gave away their home-court advantage in Game 5, so they will now hit the road to try to force a Game 7 in Boston. Tatum is averaging 24.8 points per game in the series, but has had 30 or more points in the last 2 games. He also had a game in which he scored 29 points, so minus a Game 3 loss when he managed to score only 10, he has been hard to slow down. Our experts like the Celtics to cover tonight, so expect a big game from Tatum and back this prop as a small play.

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson to combine for 50+ points – Boosted from -120 to +105 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need Golden State’s Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson to combine for at least 50 points in Game 6 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Warriors were run out of Memphis in Game 5, but have the opportunity to end the series at home tonight. Curry is averaging 25.4 points per game in the series, which would be higher if not for a 14-point performance in Game 5. Thompson is averaging 16.2 points per game in the series and has just 1 game with more than 20 points. Curry and Thompson have combined for 50 points just once this series, but with this being an elimination game, look for both of the Warriors’ stars to have a big game. For that reason, this prop is worth a small play.

New York Rangers and Calgary Flames both to win – Boosted from +180 to +250 with FanDuel Sportsbook
For this parlay, we will need the New York Rangers and the Calgary Flames to both win their games tonight. The Rangers are facing elimination on the road against the Pittsburgh Penguins, down 3-2 in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. The Flames, on the other hand, are in control of their series against the Dallas Stars, leading 3-2. Calgary will look to close out the series and advance with a win in Dallas tonight. Our experts would lean to the Flames tonight, but would look to fade the Rangers. Even though we favor the Penguins, backing this prop could still be worth a play as a sort of hedge in case the Rangers force a Game 7.
