Neemias Queta (Boston Celtics) Under 9.5 Rebounds (-139)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Celtics gear up to face the Thunder, all eyes will be on Neemias Queta, but I'm leaning towards the under on his rebound total of 9.5. While Queta has shown flashes of potential, averaging just 7.23 rebounds in recent games highlights his struggle to consistently hit double digits. Playing at home, he's managed to surpass this mark only twice in his last three outings, suggesting a trend that's hard to ignore. The Thunder, meanwhile, have a knack for limiting opposing bigs, making it even tougher for Queta to rack up those boards. With an implied probability of 58.1% favoring the under, there's a compelling case that Queta won't find himself in the right position to crash the glass like we might hope. Given these insights, betting on him to stay under 9.5 rebounds feels like a sound move in this matchup.
