Jayson Tatum O/U 5.5 Assists

One of the top MVP candidates this season, Tatum has been phenomenal in leading the Celtics to the best record in the Eastern Conference. While there’s a lot to like about him tonight against the Hawks, his assist prop is too high and we will look to take advantage with the under.

Following up a season in which he led the Celtics to the NBA Finals, Tatum has taken his game to an even higher level, averaging 31.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3.9 assists through Boston’s first 14 games. Ranking third in the league in scoring, Tatum has never met a shot he didn’t like. Projected for 31.15 points tonight, he’s in a great spot to add to that total. Averaging only 3.9 assists, however, we have Tatum projected for only 3.76 assists tonight, with his prop currently sitting at 5.5.

Averaging 3.1 assists per game for his career, Tatum has taken a small step forward in passing this season, but considering he hasn’t dished out more than five assists in any of the past six games, under 5.5 is the clear play.
