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

Jayson Tatum to outscore Kevin Durant and the Boston Celtics to win – Boosted from +140 to +175 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop needs Jayson Tatum to outscore Kevin Durant with the Boston Celtics beating the Brooklyn Nets in tonight’s first NBA game. Tatum’s heroics in the final seconds of Game 1 lifted the Celtics to a win and they will be looking to take a 2-0 series tonight. Tatum ended Game 1 with 31 points, while Durant had 23 points. Our experts like the Nets to cover in this game, but a Celtics win is still likely with how the Nets’ defense looked the other night. For that reason, this is a prop worth backing.

Giannis Antetokounmpo to score at least 30+ points and the Milwaukee Bucks to win – Boosted from -140 to -120 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we need Giannis Antetokounmpo to score at least 30 points and for the Milwaukee Bucks to beat the Chicago Bulls. The Bucks are coming off a 93-86 win in Game 1 against the Bulls and are in a good spot to go up 2-0 in the series. Antetokounmpo scored 27 points in Game 1, but should be able to have another huge performance tonight. Our experts would lean to the Bulls to cover in this game, but a Bucks win is the most likely result and for that to happen, Antetokounmpo will likely need to score at least 30 points this time. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a small play.

Chelsea, Everton & Manchester City all to win – Boosted from +460 to +600 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we will need 3 EPL teams to win their midweek matches today: Chelsea against Arsenal, Everton against Leicester and Manchester City against Brighton. Our experts would lean towards Chelsea in this spot based on how much Arsenal is struggling at the moment. The Gunners have lost their last 3 Premier League games and none of them have come against top teams. We like Chelsea to cover a -1 goal spread, but just a win for Chelsea would work in terms of this parlay.

In terms of the Everton game, we would actually lean to a tie. Everton has by no means been good this season, but against a Leicester team that is likely to be more focused on the Europa Conference League, a draw should be considered.

Manchester City is a heavy favorite against Brighton, and should be able to keep pace with Liverpool for the league title. Brighton just recently knocked off Arsenal and Tottenham, and our experts like the under in this game. However, because of the lack of faith in Everton, this parlay should likely be avoided.
