The Boston Celtics will look to add another home victory in the NBA Finals. After winning Game 1 107-89, the Celtics are more likely to win Game 2 over the Dallas Mavericks.
Like every NBA PrizePicks article, we’ll give our four-player props you can use for a four-leg entry Power Play. A two-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -137 for each prop. A three-leg entry Power Play will give you implied odds of -141. A four-leg entry NBA PrizePicks Power Play will give you implied odds of -128 for each bet.
Getting -128 on the same prop is better than getting -137 or -141. Moving forward, we’ll stick to four-leg entries. Here are our top NBA PrizePicks player predictions for Sunday’s Game 7s.
Remember that a Flex play can still win if one pick misses, but you’d get lower payouts.

In the regular season, Jaylen Brown added 29.5 points per game against the Mavericks in two games. Then, in the postseason, Brown added 22 points despite only taking 12 shots. He went 7-for-12 from the floor and drilled just 6-for-11 from the foul line to ultimately go Under 23.5 points.
While he’s not the best foul shooter, Brown still averaged over 70% from the foul line this season. He’s also a career 72% foul shooter. In addition, he nailed over 35% from downtown and shot about 50% from the field. Brown should’ve got to 24 points on Thursday.
He’ll get back on track tonight and hit the Over.
Kristaps Porzingis More Than 6 Rebounds
Kristaps Porzingis averaged 7.2 rebounds per game throughout the season. He also played about 30 minutes per game but was restricted to only 21 minutes in Game 1.
At the very least, he missed out on eight more minutes in Game 1 that he usually plays.
That said, Porzingis earned six rebounds in those 21 minutes. He was also an X-Factor after scoring 20 points total against Dallas in Game 1. He’ll likely be out on the floor more, even if he doesn’t get the start today. That’ll help him add seven or more rebounds.
Derrick White More Than 14.5 Points
Another X-Factor for the Celtics has been Derrick White. White averaged 15.2 points per game in the regular season and has had some huge moments throughout the postseason as well.
White scored 15 points on 5-for-11 from the field. However, three of those five attempts were from downtown. White also nailed a pair from the foul line and finished with 15 points in 35 minutes in Game 1.
The Mavericks are 22nd in the NBA in points allowed to shooting guards. Meanwhile, White has nailed at least 15 points in four of his last five games.
Kyrie Irving Less Than 22.5 Points
Sometimes, you’re in awe of just how good Kyrie Irving is offensively. But there are also moments when he goes silent and does nothing.
That said, we’ll give the Celtics some credit. They had a good game plan that forced Irving into tough positions, especially when double-teamed. They let Luka Doncic shoot the volume and took everyone else out of the game, and it worked to perfection.
The Celtics would not abandon the same game plan that helped them earn a near 20-point victory in Game 1.
