Marcus Smart Points
Player Prop - 5/19/2023

Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat

 
 
 
Marcus Smart Points Prop is currently Over/Under 13.5 (-130/+100).

The money has been on the Over as it opened 13.5 @ -108 before it was bet up to 13.5 @ -130.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • Marcus Smart has attempted 4.8 3-pointers per game while on his home court this year, ranking him in the 80th percentile out of all players in the league.
  • Marcus Smart has tallied 37.6 minutes per game over the last 5 games, 5.7 more than he's tallied in all games this season.
  • The Boston Celtics rank as the 4th-highest scoring offense in the NBA this year.
  • The Heat have given up the least offensive rebounds per game (9.2) in the league to the other team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce further opportunities for scoring and assists).
  • Marcus Smart has attempted 5.4 free throws per game over the last 5 games, 3.2 more than he's attempted in all games this season.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The matchup vs. Miami is a challenging one; when the Heat are the visiting squad, they have allowed the 15th-least points per game in the NBA to the opposing team's starting PGs this year (16.2).
  • The Boston Celtics have played at the 2nd-slowest pace-of-play in the league over the last 10 games.
  • The Heat have played at the most lethargic pace-of-play in the league over the last 25 games, which should decrease opportunities for the Celtics.
  • The Boston Celtics check in as the 6th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 15 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore reduce extra chances for scoring and assists).
  • The matchup vs. Miami may be a hard one for drawing fouls; opposing starting PGs have attempted a measly 3.0 free throws per game over the last 15 games when the Heat are on the road (5th-least in the NBA).
