Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Derrick White is poised for a big night against the Charlotte Hornets, making the Over on 17.5 points plus rebounds a savvy bet. At home, he's been a different beast, averaging 22.8 points against the Hornets in their last matchup on his turf. He's also clocking in a solid 4.8 rebounds per game against them recently, which adds to his scoring potential. With the Celtics gearing up for a crucial home game, expect White to step up. His recent average of 11.6 points and 4.8 rebounds at home shows he's comfortable in familiar surroundings, and given that he's hit this mark in 12 out of his last 20 games-12 of those at home-there's a strong narrative building here. The numbers suggest he'll be more than ready to surpass that 17.5 threshold, making it a compelling play.
