Bet On Porzingis To Score Under 8 Points 1q2l2j
Kristaps Porzingis has been borderline unplayable for the Boston Celtics so far this series and has yet to score in double figures.
Online NBA sportsbooks have set his point total tonight at 7.5 points with -120 odds to cash the under. Quite frankly, it is surprising to see the line that high.
Porzingis scored eight points in Game 2, but has scored under eight points in every other game this series, including a zero point performance in Game 1 and just one point in Game 5.
It would not be surprising to see Porzingis log zero minutes tonight, as Luke Kornet stepped up big in Game 5 and Al Horford continues to hold down the starting five spot.
Betting on Porzingis to score under eight points should be easy money.

Mitchell Robinson Should Dominate The Boards 2e616f
The Celtics have had rebounding issues throughout the playoffs which have been exacerbated by Porzingis’ struggles and Mitchell Robinson has taken full advantage.
His line for total rebounds in tonight’s game is set at 7.5 with +105 odds to hit the over.
Robinson recorded 13 rebounds in Game 5, the third most in a playoff game in his career. He has logged at least seven rebounds in each game this series.
A big factor that has limited Robinson thus far is his free throw shooting, as the Celtics have fouled him on purpose on multiple occasions, daring him to make shots from the foul line.
He struggled in the first few games but was able to go 6-6 from the line in Game 5, giving the Knicks some optimism that he will no longer be a liability on offense.
Expect Robinson to play a hefty amount of minutes in tonight’s closeout game, which should be a physical battle.
