Prediction
Jaylen Brown Over 34.5 points+rebounds+assists (-115)
The Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is one of the most skilled players this season, averaging 25 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game. The points and rebounds are the second most in his career, and the assists are at the highest.
One of the reasons for Brown to perform even better this season is his matchup. The Chicago Bulls have allowed the most points, most assists, and the fifth most rebounds this season. In this case, he will be a favorite. He has performed well against the bulls in the past, and his performance last season was good enough to ensure he goes over the number a number of times. He averaged 37.5 PRAs in the Over number of 37.5 in one of his two matches against the bulls. He managed to go over 34 PRAs only once, averaging 32.5 in his encounters with Chicago.
He has gone Over on this line on two of his last three and in 10 of 14 on the season, which is good for 71.4 percent. Even better, we get odds at -115, priced at discount. On average, he put up 34 Pra and 37 away from home. There are chances, he goes over with seam points in his next which will be away from TD Garden as well.
