The defending Eastern Conference champions Boston Celtics look to go 2-0 on the young season as they head to South Beach for a date with the Miami Heat. I have prepared a Same Game Parlay for this matchup, which tips off at 7.30 pm ET on ESPN. Continue reading to see it below.

Let’s get into it!
Tyler Herro 4+ Made Threes (+300)
Jaylen Brown to Score 25+ Points (+114)
Parlay odds: +718
Tyler Herro 4+ made threes (+300)
Herro is off to a solid start to the new season after scoring 23 points against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday. Unfortunately for him his team lost that game, but there were some encouraging signs from Herro; he went 4-for-8 from downtown. Getting that huge contract extension during the summer has meant that now moves into the starting line-up and it didn’t take long for him to adjust to his new role. He didn’t have the best of series against the Celtics in the playoffs last season and now it’s time for him to make up for it. Boston has already had one player score 5 threes in a game against them, that was James Harden on opening night. The 76ers finished that game with 13 threes on 34 attempts, if the Heat are able to attempt that many threes in tonight’s game Herro could be in line for a big game here.

Jaylen Brown to score 25+ points (+114)
Both Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum had themselves a game in the season opener against Philadelphia finishing with 35 points each. I expect Brown to continue racking up the points tonight as Miami is one of his favorite opponents. Since the 2019-20 season he has scored more than 25 point against them in 4 of the last 7 games. During the Eastern Conference series he averaged 24.1 points on almost 49% shooting from the field and 40.4% from downtown. In his last 2 regular season vs Miami he went over 25 points in both games on really solid efficiency, so the Heat defense will once again have its hands full trying to stop him. Jimmy Butler is the lone elite defender on the wings for the home side here, so dealing with both Brown and Tatum will certainly leave a toll on him. Look for Brown to exploit that tonight and lead the Celtics in scoring.
