As the 76ers gear up to face the formidable Celtics, all eyes should be on Adem Bona. While his average points and rebounds over the last five games sit at 4.2 and 3.4 respectively, there's a hidden potential in his recent away performances, especially with a hit rate of 8 out of his last 14 games on the road.

Historically, he's averaged around 3.7 points and 3.0 rebounds against the Celtics while playing away, and given that he's been trending upwards, hitting the Over on 9.5 seems plausible. With the stakes high and the Celtics' defense focused on the likes of Joel Embiid, Bona might find himself with more opportunities to contribute. Expect him to rise to the occasion and exceed that mark, making this a compelling player prop to back.
