Indiana Pacers vs. Boston Celtics Game 2 Prediction
Since Kristaps Porzingis has been out with an injury, we’ve seen Jrue Holiday get an extra minute or two in the first quarter and he’s now played 9+ first quarter minutes in seven straight games.
Since February 1st, Jrue has 2+ assists in the first quarter in nine of the last 11 games with 9+ first quarter minutes (3+ in seven of 11). Over those games he had 3+ potential assists in nine of 11 games averaging 4.36 potentials. When Jrue has 2+ first quarter potential assists he has hit this line in 30 of 30 games this season.
Both Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown tend to be aggressive in the first quarters especially with Porzingis out so the increase in first quarter assists makes a ton of sense.

(BOS) Jrue Holiday Over 1.5 1st Quarter Assists (+180 @ DraftKings) (.6 Units)
3+ 1st Quarter Assists (+600 @ Bet365) (.25 Units)
