Thunder computer picks
Isaiah Hartenstein Over 7.5 (+115)
Projection: 8.5 points
Isaiah Hartenstein has cleared this line in back-to-back games, and the Oklahoma City Thunder have the fourth-best offense away from home. It's important to note this is OKC's fifth road game, so Hart has found recent success away from Paycom Center.
This is a five-star play according to our projections!

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Under 29.5 points (+100)
Projection: 27.3 points
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the MVP, but even the best in the world will have a tough time scoring against the league's stingiest defense.
The Boston Celtics also play at a snail's pace, leading to fewer possessions. SGA will get his, but even if Boston holds him to "just" 29 points, this cashes.

Jalen Williams Under 3.5 assists (+100)
Projection: 3.2 assists
As mentioned, offense won't be easy to come by for the Thunder. Without Shai scoring as much as he's used to, that — along with fewer possessions — will cut into J-Dub's assists.
Celtics computer picks
Jaylen Brown Over 6.5 rebounds (+100)
Projection: 7.7 rebounds
Jaylen Brown can score with the best of them, but he's also an underrated rebounder. JB is pulling down 7.0 boards per game and has eclipsed this number in six of 11 March outings.
The C's rank as the second-best offensive rebound team as well, opening the door for more board opportunities for the Boston superstar.
Neemias Queta Over 7.5 points (-135)
Projection: 9.4 points
Neemias Queta has become a reliable part of this Boston attack, eclipsing tonight's points total three times in his last five games. As mentioned, the Celtics are elite offensive rebounders, which will help lead to easy second-chance buckets for their big man.
Sam Hauser Over 6.5 points (-112)
Projection: 7.7 points
Sam Hauser has found himself in a bit of a slump, but he cashed the Over on his points line in four straight before. OKC's offense is elite, but Tatum and Jaylen Brown will cause enough disturbance where the Thunder will dare a guy like Hauser to beat them.
