Playing at home, Hauser has found his rhythm, averaging 12 points and nearly 4 rebounds in his last five games. More impressively, at TD Garden, he ramps up his performance-his scoring climbs to an average of 13.2 points against the Raptors, a team that has struggled defensively.With a hit rate of 67% in his last six outings and 66% in his last three home games, there's a solid trend suggesting he thrives in familiar surroundings. Additionally, his expected stat value of 14.9 suggests he's poised for a breakout. Given the Celtics' need for offensive firepower, Hauser is likely to step up big, making the over a smart play in this matchup.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As Jamal Shead takes the court against the Boston Celtics, we're looking at an intriguing opportunity to back him for over 9.5 points and rebounds. Despite his recent averages of 9 points and less than 1 rebound, there's reason for optimism. In his last four games, he's hit this mark three times, suggesting a growing comfort and confidence. Facing the Raptors, he has historically averaged 8.4 points, and while his away numbers dip slightly, the Celtics' defense may provide just the right matchup for him to exploit. His expected stat value of nearly 13 indicates there's significant upside here. With the stakes rising as the season winds down, don't be surprised if Shead steps up to help carry the load. He'll need to be aggressive, and I believe he'll rise to the occasion-targeting the over is the move.
