We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which are from PointsBet Sportsbook. We will discuss whether or not they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.

Gabe Landeskog, Cale Makar and Ryan O’Reilly to all record a point – Boosted from +230 to +280 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop needs Gabriel Landeskog (Colorado Avalanche), Cale Makar (Colorado Avalanche), and Ryan O’Reilly (St. Louis Blues) to all record a point tonight in Game 3 of the Western Conference semifinals. In 6 games so far this postseason, Landeskog has recorded 9 points. He has recorded 3 points in the current series against the Blues, including their only goal in Game 2.

Makar has not recorded a point against the Blues through 2 games, but had 10 points in the round 1 series against the Nashville Predators. He is always a threat for a goal or assist and should be able to get back into a groove.

Finally, O’Reilly has been consistently scoring points so far this postseason. He has 10 points through 8 games, and has at least 1 point in his last 6 games. Because all of these guys have had successful postseasons so far, backing this prop looks to be worth a lean.

Jalen Brown and Tyler Herro to each record over 2.5 made 3-pointers – Boosted from +160 to +190 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Jalen Brown and Tyler Herro to each record over 2.5 made 3-pointers tonight in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Brown has been lethal from 3-point range in the postseason, making 40.2% of his shots. He has at least 3 made 3-pointers in 6 games this postseason, including 4 made 3-pointers in each of the first 2 games of this series against the Miami Heat.

Herro has been shooting poorly from downtown in the playoffs, making just 25.4% of his shots from downtown. He has just 2 games so far in the postseason where he had at least 3 made 3-pointers, but with the series getting tight, I expect him to keep firing. As seen in Game 2, the Celtics adjusted to Jimmy Butler, so Herro is a guy that needs to step up. For that reason, backing this prop looks to be worth a small play in a very important Game 3 in Boston.

Jayson Tatum to score 30+ points and the Boston Celtics to win – Boosted from +160 to +190 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop needs Jayson Tatum to score at least 30 points tonight in Game 3 against the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics to win the game. Tatum has been excellent so far in this series, scoring 29 and 27 in Games 1 and 2. He is averaging 28.2 points in the postseason, but has had 5 games in which he scored 30+ points. Being back in Boston should give Tatum an extra boost and another big performance is more than likely. Our experts love the Celtics to build on their Game 2 win in Miami, so backing to Tatum to lead the charge with at least 30 points in more than worth a play tonight in Game 3.
