The Boston Celtics will try to bounce back from another home loss (their 12th) when they visit the Miami Heat on Friday night. This rivalry has lost some spice with Jimmy Butler out of the picture and the Heat sinking in the East, but there are still plenty of quality NBA player prop bets for us to circle.

Let’s look at the NBA lines and find the best bets.

 

Celtics vs Heat Prediction

Boston fell at TD Garden to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. Not only is this a big drop in level of competition, but the Celtics have excelled away from home. They’re 24-7 on the road, just a game behind the Cavaliers in that category. They’ve also dominated Miami in two meetings this season, especially on the defensive end: Celtics 109, Heat 98

Celtics vs Heat 3 Best NBA Player Props Today

1. Jaylen Brown Over 23.5 Points (-114)

We correctly nailed a Jaylen Brown under the other night vs OKC, but we’re confident he’ll bounce back against softer competition. Brown has gone over this number in seven of his last nine against the Heat, including a 29-point effort in his only game against Miami this season.

2. Bam Adebayo Over 18.5 Points (-106)

Adebayo is coming off a six-point effort in a loss to the Clippers, but don’t read too much into that. He was in the process of making five steals in a more defensive-minded night, attempting only seven shots. He’s gone over this number in eight of his last nine against the Celtics, and averaged 26.2 PPG in a six-game stretch prior to his last outing.

 

3. Tyler Herro Over 2.5 3-Pointers (-152)

We’re not asking too much from a guy who ranks sixth in the NBA in made 3-pointers. He has been struggling in that department (30% over last nine games) but has made at least three in four of his last six vs Boston, averaging 3.8 made triples per game in that span.

Bet on Tyler Herro Over 2.5 Threes

Celtics vs Heat Moneyline Pick

Not only has Boston excelled on the road, but the Heat are stuck in the mud right now. They’ve lost five in a row and 12 of the last 16, a trend we don’t see them reversing against an opponent like the Celtics.

Bet on Celtics ML (-315)

 

Celtics vs Heat Spread Pick

Boston is a league-best 14-4-0 NBA pick against the spread following a loss. It has won three in a row in Miami and shouldn’t have too much of an issue covering here.

Bet Celtics -8 (-110)

 

Celtics vs Heat Over/Under Pick

Nobody goes under on the road more often than the Celtics (11-20-0) and they held the Heat to below 90 points in each of the first two meetings. Expect a low-scoring affair and cash in on this NBA expert pick.

Bet on Celtics vs Bulls Under 216 (-110)
