• Boston has won 3 of the last 4 against OKC

Jayson Tatum is the leader of the Boston Celtics and one of the favorites to win the MVP award this season. He is the third-best scorer in the league so far this season averaging 32.3 points per game. Tatum scored 43 in the last game against the Pistons. Besides scoring, the 24-year-old adds 7.2 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game. Tonight, the Celtics will have a chance to get to their seventh straight win over the Thunder and Tatum will be hot on the offensive end for sure. Thing is that he is not the best rebounder on the team and since the Celtics may finish their job early against the Thunder, Tatum may spend fewer minutes on the floor. Averaging just over 7 rebounds per game, this will not be a game in which he will need to, or go for, more boards than that. Therefore, my pick for the day is the option that Tatum will not record a double-double. Yes, he would score a lot, probably more than 30 but the rebounds and assists will stay in a single-digit number.
