Caesar’s. Luka Garza has now cleared this line in 11 of 14 games he’s played at least 14 minutes this season. Now up to around 18-22 minutes in his regular rotation, he’ll face a Kings defense that’s allowed the most points plus rebounds to opposing centers over the last 15 games.

Derrick White combined for at least 10 rebounds and assists in five of his last six games. The one time that he didn’t, he just missed with five rebounds and four assists. This is a great matchup for him against the Kings, who have the third-worst defensive rating in the league. Along the way, they have permitted the fifth-most rebounds and the fifth-most assists per game. White could be busy in both departments again.

Maxime Raynaud has averaged 14.6 points and 9.5 rebounds over 11 games since becoming a starter for the Kings. He combined for at least 22 points and rebounds in eight of those games. The Celtics don’t have much size up front, which has resulted in opposing centers producing some juicy stat lines against them. That included Jusuf Nurkic registering 26 points and eight rebounds versus them Tuesday. Raynaud is in a favorable position to record at least 22 points and rebounds again.

FanDuel. This line reads as too low for Maxime Raynaud, who has cleared this line in seven of eight games as a starter, without both Domantas Sabonis and Zach LaVine. Even in a tougher individual matchup, Raynaud should be able to clear this low line. The center is averaging 15 paint elbow touches per game (third only to Nikola Jokic and Ivica Zubac over that span). With Luka Garza (24th percentile in EPM, per Dunks and Threes) now seeing rotation minutes off the bench, Raynaud should be able to capitalize. I’d bet this up to over 22.5.
