Celtics at Thunder picks and predictions

Prediction

Celtics 121, Thunder 110

Moneyline

PASS on the moneyline in this game despite the Celtics (-380) being heavily favored and likely to win as the risk isn’t worth the return.

Against the spread

CELTICS -8.5 (-115) is a large spread, but Boston should be able to cover it on the road. While G Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been fantastic this season, the Celtics own the 7th-best defensive rating and the Thunder have the 6th-worst true-shooting percentage in the NBA.

The Thunder are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games following a loss of 10 or more points. Meanwhile, the Celtics are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 road meetings against the Thunder.

Over/Under

Even though there are going to be a few talented scorers in this game, UNDER 233.5 (-112) appears to be the ideal choice. The Celtics are 1 of the best defensive teams in the league and outside of Gilgeous-Alexander, the Thunder don’t have a go-to scorer on the offensive end.

The Celtics are 8-1 to the Under in their last 9 road games against a team with a winning home record and 9-2-1 to the Under in their last 12 road games. The Under is also 5-2 in the last 7 meetings between the Celtics and the Thunder in Oklahoma City.

Celtics at Thunder odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Celtics 119, Thunder 110

Money line

PASS on the money line.

The Celtics are playing some of the best basketball in the league and the Thunder are struggling. Oklahoma City is tied for the fewest home victories in the league with just nine wins at Paycom Center.

The price is not worth a bet on the Celtics though.

Against the spread

The Celtics have covered the spread in their last three games and in seven of their last 10. They are 22-14 ATS on the road this season.

The Thunder, for as much as they have struggled to win games, have done well against the spread. They are 42-25-4 ATS overall this season and 17-14-4 ATS at home. They have lost by more than 15 only three times across their nine-game losing skid.

The Celtics’ last two wins have been both by 20 or more points, but those are the only two wins of their last 10 that were by more than 15.

Take THUNDER +15.5 (-115).

Over/Under

The Thunder are the lowest-scoring team in the NBA, averaging only 102.8 points per game. However, they’ve scored 115 points or more in four of their last nine games.

The Celtics scored 126 and 124 in their two most recent games.

The last matchup between the two teams this season had a total of 216.

I LEAN OVER 215.5 (-112).

Celtics at Thunder: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Celtics 113, Thunder 107

Money line (ML)

The Celtics play for the second night in a row after splitting a pair of road games in Milwaukee. Boston has struggled on the road this season, going 9-16 so far. They have lost four of their last six road contests.

The Thunder have not fared well at home this season, going 8-13 in Chesapeake Energy Arena. They are missing their top two scorers in Gilgeous-Alexander and Bazley. While the Celtics are the play, there isn’t a lot of value at -250 odds so we’ll find better value on other betting lines.

Against the spread (ATS)

The Thunder have outdone the Celtics this season when it comes to covering the spread. Oklahoma City is 23-20-1 ATS overall, while Boston is only 21-24 ATS. However, neither team has been a good bet when Boston is on the road (9-16 ATS) or when Oklahoma City is at home (8-12-1 ATS).

The Celtics have covered the spread in three of their last four games but in only four of their last 10. The Thunder have covered the spread in two of their last three games but are 5-5 ATS in their last 10. Take the THUNDER +6 (-110).

Over/Under (O/U)

The Celtics’ last three games have gone Over the total and Boston is 25-20 O/U this season. The Thunder are 13-8 O/U at home and their last five games at home have all gone Over. Take OVER 216.5 POINTS (-110).
