Vegas gives props to Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid in Sixers-Celtics Game 2

Interesting proposition bet for tonight’s game on Ben Simmons set by the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook.

The line for the total number of points, rebounds and assists for Simmons is 34.5. In Game 1, Simmons had 18 points, seven rebounds and six assists. He would have had a dozen assists if his teammates hit some open shots.

But before jumping on the over, note that in four regular-season games against the Celtics, Simmons totaled 27, 28, 21 and 19 of those three stats. What could be a killer for the over is Simmons’ free-throw shooting. He shot 56 percent during the season and was just 6 for 11 on Monday night.
