Paul George to record 6+ assists (+175)
Paul George has been passing the ball well of late for the Clippers. Not only is he averaging 6.7 assists over the last week, but he has also recorded 6 or more in 5 of his last 8 games. He came just 1 short in another of those games. The return of Kawhi Leonard has certainly helped matters, with George no longer having to single handily carry the offensive burden. It also gives him a reliable scorer to pick out. With a scoring point guard like Reggie Jackson in the starting 5, George should be the one assuming the playmaking responsibilities here.
Matchup-wise, the Celtics do have great wing defenders they can put up against George. However, the hosts do have issues on the inside. With Robert Williams still facing a minutes limit and Al Horford not having the greatest size for a center, the Clippers could have success finishing in the paint. As a result, look for George to have success running the pick-and-roll with Ivica Zubac. That should help him reach 6 assists here.

Jaylen Brown to record 8+ rebounds (+140)
Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown has established himself as a great rebounder in this league. This season he is averaging 7.2 rebounds per game. He has been able to record 10 or more rebounds in 3 of his last 7 games, with a 15-rebound performance against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Facing off against a team that has Zubac playing at center should help this line. The Croatian is currently 5th in the league in offensive rebounds per game. As a result, look for the focus for the Celtics bigs to be to keep him off the glass and boxing out. That should create opportunities for players like Brown to swoop in and collect the misses. Over the last 10 games, these sides are also 1st and 7th in 3-point attempts per game. That should increase the number of long rebounds tonight, helping the wings to collect theirs here.
