I’m looking at three very different players in my NBA picks for Sunday, April 5. Let’s take a look at why I like Jayson Tatum to continue his strong return to action, as well as how role players like Donte DiVincenzo and Tari Eason can pay off for bettors in their own ways tonight.

Prop #1: Jayson Tatum Over 22.5 points
-120 at bet365
Jayson Tatum has now been back in the Boston Celtics lineup for nearly a full month, and he’s starting to look like the superstar they’ll need in the playoffs. Tatum picked up his first triple-double of the year on Wednesday, and nearly repeated the feat on Friday, coming up one assist short against the Bucks.

In his last four games, Tatum is averaging 26.5 points. He’s also enjoyed some of his best shooting of the year recently, shooting 48.3% in his last three contests on heavy volume.
The Toronto Raptors are a solid defensive team, but they haven’t slowed the Celtics this year, with Boston averaging 119.3 PPG in the first three meetings with Toronto. With Tatum back in the lineup, the Celtics are even more potent offensively, and there should be plenty of points available for him to hit the Over on his points total.

Prop #2: Donte DiVincenzo Over 2.5 made threes
-120 at bet365
Donte DiVincenzo has been firing away from deep all season long for the Minnesota Timberwolves, averaging 3.0 made threes per game on 38.1% shooting from beyond the arc. Minnesota has been struggling lately, losing four of seven, but DiVincenzo continues to play his role, hitting at least three shots from 3-point range in six of his last eight.

There’s no reason why the Timberwolves would change DiVincenzo’s role or usage…
