Marcus Smart Assists
Player Prop - 5/25/2023

Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat

 
 
 
Marcus Smart Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 5.5 (-165/+135).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 5.5 @ -155 before it was bet up to 5.5 @ -165.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Marcus Smart has tallied 6.1 assists per game this year, putting him in the company of the best players in the NBA by this standard: 95th percentile.
  • Marcus Smart has tallied 31.1 minutes per game while on his home court this year, ranking in the 83rd percentile -- putting him among the most-utilized players in the league.
  • Without the home court advantage, the Heat have allowed the least offensive rebounds per game (9.2) in the league to opposing teams this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
  • Marcus Smart will hold the home court advantage in this contest. Playing at home usually increases player performance for all stats.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • Marcus Smart has been called for 2.6 personal fouls per game this year, ranking him as one of the most foul-whistled players in the league (86th percentile).
  • The Boston Celtics have played at the 3rd-most lethargic pace-of-play in the league over the last 10 games.
  • The Heat have played at the most lethargic pace in the league over the last 15 games without the home court advantage, which should reduce opportunities for the Celtics.
  • The Boston Celtics have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 10 games while at home (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce further chances for scoring and assists).
