Preview:
The Spurs have opened as +6.5 underdogs in Boston as they hope to move one step closer to a .500 record.
San Antonio has won only five of its last 10-games, but the trends suggest Gregg Popovich’s side could prove a handful having covered the spread in five of their last seven games.
The Celtics roll into this one looking to rebound from a five-point loss to the Wizards on Tuesday, but that might be easier said than done if Kemba Walker misses his fourth straight game due to illness.
Also on the injury report is centre Daniel Theis and rookie Romeo Langford, leaving the Celtics a little thin on bench depth.
None of that fills me with confidence against a Spurs side that ranks eighth in points-per-game on the road this season, especially against a Spurs team looking for revenge after losing to the Celtics by 20-points back in November.
Avenging a previous loss has been the Spurs’ specialty, though. San Antonio is 36-14 against the spread in this scenario over the last two seasons, so take the visitors to give Boston all they can handle.
Odds:
Tip: Boston Celtics at $1.30
