Boston Celtics vs Washington Wizards Betting Preview

The Boston Celtics, boasting a stellar 20-5 record, are set to face off against the struggling Washington Wizards, who languish at 3-20, in a Sunday night showdown at Capital One Arena. Tip-off is scheduled for 6:00 PM ET, and the Celtics come in as heavy favorites, with a spread of -16.5.

Boston has been on a tear, winning 20 of their last 25 games, including a dominant 123-99 victory over the Detroit Pistons in their previous outing. The Celtics have benefitted from a three-day rest since their last game, giving them a significant edge in terms of player freshness. This extra rest could prove crucial as they aim to maintain their winning ways on the road.

On the other side, the Wizards are mired in a rough patch, having dropped 18 of their last 20 contests. Their latest defeat came at the hands of the Cleveland Cavaliers, with a final score of 115-105. Despite playing at home, Washington faces a daunting challenge against a Celtics squad that has been firing on all cylinders.

The odds reflect Boston's strong position, with a moneyline of -1200, translating to an implied win probability of 89%. Meanwhile, Washington's moneyline sits at +800, giving them a slim 11% chance of pulling off an upset.

For those eyeing player prop bets, Jayson Tatum's Points, Rebounds, and Assists market is drawing significant attention. The line is set at Over 40.5 (-110), with sharp bettors leaning towards the Over, believing it's undervalued and offers potential upside.
