Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets Betting Preview

The Boston Celtics, with a promising 4-1 start to the season, are set to face the Charlotte Hornets, who sit at 2-2, in an exciting Friday night matchup. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 PM ET at the Spectrum Center, the home court of the Hornets. Despite being on the road, the Celtics come into this game as heavy favorites, with a spread of -11.0 and a commanding moneyline of -550, indicating an 82% implied win probability.

Boston has been riding high, winning four of their last five outings, though they are coming off a narrow loss to the Indiana Pacers, 135-132. Their offense has been clicking, and they will look to continue that trend against a Hornets team that has been inconsistent, winning just once in their last three games. However, Charlotte did manage an impressive 138-133 victory over the Toronto Raptors in their latest contest, showcasing their potential to compete with stronger opponents.

For those eyeing player prop bets, Jayson Tatum's performance in terms of Points, Rebounds, and Assists has garnered significant attention. His combined stat line is currently set at 42.5, with sharp bettors leaning towards the Under, believing it might be a bit inflated. The Under is priced at -110, suggesting a closely contested market.

As the Celtics look to bounce back from their recent defeat, they will need to maintain their offensive efficiency while tightening up defensively to cover the spread. Meanwhile, the Hornets will aim to ride the momentum of their recent win and defy the odds in front of their home crowd. With both teams having shown the ability to put up points in their last outings, this matchup promises to be an intriguing clash for fans and bettors alike.
