Boston Celtics vs New York Knicks Prediction – 2/8/2025


The Boston Celtics and New York Knicks are set to clash in an exciting matchup on Saturday night, February 8, 2025, at 8:30 PM ET. This game, taking place at Madison Square Garden, features two divisional rivals who are both enjoying strong seasons, with the Celtics holding a record of 36-16 and the Knicks at 34-17.

As both teams vie for playoff positioning, the stakes will be high, and the rivalry adds an extra layer of intensity. The Celtics enter this game as slight favorites, with a spread of -2.0, reflecting their recent success; they have won 34 of their last 50 games. However, the Knicks come off a victory against the Toronto Raptors and have had four days of rest, which could prove advantageous as they look to capitalize on any fatigue from the Celtics, who lost their last game to the Dallas Mavericks, 127-120.

According to the betting odds, the Celtics have an implied win probability of 55%, while the Knicks stand at 45%. Bettors might be intrigued by the player prop market, particularly focusing on Karl-Anthony Towns's Points and Rebounds, which has gained popularity. The prop total opened at Under 36.5 Points and Rebounds (-115) but has since moved to Under 35.5 (-105), indicating sharp action on the Under.
