Saturday's NBA slate of 2021-22 playoff games includes a showdown between the Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks. FanDuel Sportsbook is currently listing the Bucks as the 2-point home favorites over the Celtics.

Here are the three of the best prop bets for the Celtics-Bucks game, courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook.

Celtics vs Bucks Player Props

1. Giannis Antetokounmpo - Points: Over 30.5 (-110)

The Celtics did a good job of containing Giannis Antetokounmpo in Game 2, holding him to 28 points on 11-of-27 (.407) shooting. The 'Greek Freak' is looking to bounce back and could do so by hitting the over in front of the hometown faithful. He's averaged 31.3 points in four games at Fiserv Forum so far this postseason, finishing with 31-plus points in each of his last three home outings. The Bucks are going to come out swinging after being held to 86 points in Game 2, so look for Antetokounmpo to lead the charge.

2. Al Horford: 10+ Rebounds (+172)

After averaging about 32 minutes played against the Brooklyn Nets last round, Al Horford has seen his average playing time rise to just under 38 minutes against the Bucks. The result? Double-digit rebound performances in each of the two games to start the series. He also has double-digit rebounds in each of his last five games where he's played at least 33 minutes. There's no reason for Boston to lower his playing time yet, giving Horford a great opportunity to provide bettors with some decent value on this prop.

3. Jayson Tatum: 4+ Threes Made (-154)

Jayson Tatum has been one of the most consistent three-point shooters this postseason, going 22-of-50 (.440) from beyond the arc. His consistency has picked up even more recently as the 24-year-old has finished with four or more threes in each of his last four outings. The Bucks haven't done a good job at limiting him on the perimeter just yet either. With no change in sight, look for Tatum to continue doing exactly what's been making him so dangerous these playoffs.
