Preview:
The Celtics are currently laying 9.5 points here and I think they’re good value for the win and cover. Given some of the recent spreads in their games, the line value appears to be all on Boston here.
Just last time out, this Pistons side were 1-point home underdogs against the lowly Pelicans. This would translate to a 7-point spread if the game was in New Orleans and this Boston side is clearly 2.5 points better than the Pels.
They possess one of the best home court advantages in the NBA, going 16-3 thus far. Detroit have struggled mightily on the road, finding themselves at 6-14.
The injury bug has hit them hard of late, with Blake Griffin, Luke Kennard, and Reggie Jackson all likely out here. Boston appear to be relatively injury free, with wing Jayson Tatum ruled probable for this one.
Detroit have been competitive of late, but they’ve only won 3 out of 10 against a pretty weak schedule. Boston has a huge edge on the wing and I think they roll to a double-digit victory.
Odds:
Tip: Boston Celtics at $1.19
