Advice and prediction
The Celtics covered a small spread against the Warriors, and it feels like this line with the Kings is fairly generous. Yes, Boston is on the second-half of a back-to-back, but there’s a reason the Kings have a 5-6 home record and are last in the Pacific division. Take the Celtics moneyline, as you’re not earning much more money by laying 1.5 points.
I’d also hammer the over 225.5. Both the Celtics and Kings have top-10 offenses per adjusted offensive rating, but the Kings rank dead last in defensive rating. The Kings have gone over 225.5 in 13 of their 20 games this season.
Prediction: Celtics 123, Kings 114
