Wizards at Celtics: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Wizards 110, Celtics 105
Money line (ML)
The Wizards continue to be one of the hotter teams in the league. They have won seven of their last eight games. Boston won its last game but has lost three of four. Boston is 9-5 at home but Washington has won four of its last five on the road.
The Celtics are clearly not the same team without Brown and Smart. Washington beat the Celtics 104-91 earlier in February in Washington. It will be a closer game, but take the WIZARDS +220.

Against the spread (ATS)
The Wizards have also covered the spread in seven of their last eight games and are 16-15 ATS overall. They are 13-10 ATS as underdogs thanks to the current run.
Boston is 10-4 ATS at home but since we expect a straight-up win, take the WIZARDS +6.5 (-110).
Over/Under (O/U)
Both teams have their games go Over almost 55% of the time; however, when they met last time, they combined for only 195 points. It won’t be that low but expect a similar type of game.
Take UNDER 232.5 POINTS (-110).
