Two NBA player props for Saturday's Game 6 of Boston-Miami

By Griffin Carroll | Last updated 5/26/23

After being down 3-0, the Boston Celtics have grabbed two straight wins. We're now treated to a massive Game 6 in Miami. There's no way the Heat want to return to Boston in this series, so we do expect everything they've got in this one. The Celtics have the momentum, and all-in-all, it's shaping up to be a fantastic playoff game. We've got two player props for the action, one on both ends. Both have gone over in each game this series.

Caleb Martin over 13.5 points (-105 DK)

What is there to really say about Caleb Martin at this point? While his points line slowly increases each game, it hasn't been enough to keep us from cashing Martin overs.

The Heat small forward has finished with 14+ points in all five games this series against the Celtics, averaging 17.6 points per game on 11.8 field-goal attempts per game.

His role has solidified, and his production has never wavered. In a pivotal Game 6 at home, we expect the Heat to push the tempo more on the offensive end and close this series out.

Until Martin fails to deliver, it's best to continue looking to his points prop in this Eastern Conference Finals.

Derrick White over 2.5 made threes (-104 FD)

Derrick White has been rolling from deep. Leading into Game 5, the Celtics guard had drained three threes in all four games prior. He proceeded to explode in Game 5, going 6-8 from beyond the arc.

White was consistently finding himself open and had no hesitation in letting it rip. It paid off as the Celtics saw their most complete win to date in this series, and there's every reason to believe White keeps the threes flowing.

This was an issue for the Heat during the regular season. Miami allowed the third-most threes this year and the 10th-highest three-point percentage. That vulnerability is coming to a head here, and we'll continue riding the hot hand that is Derrick White.
