Brooklyn Nets vs Boston Celtics Prediction – 3/18/2025

On March 18, 2025, the Brooklyn Nets (23-45) will clash with the Boston Celtics (49-19) in a highly anticipated matchup that emphasizes their divisional rivalry. Scheduled to tip off at 7:30 PM ET at TD Garden, this game carries added significance, as both teams will be motivated to secure a win.

The Celtics enter this contest as massive favorites, with a spread currently set at Celtics -13.5. With an impressive 87% implied win probability according to the odds, Boston has played solid basketball lately, winning 34 of their last 50 games. Their last outing was a victory against the Brooklyn Nets, narrowly edging them 115-113, which adds a layer of intrigue to this rematch.

In contrast, the Nets have struggled significantly, winning just 15 of their last 50 matchups. However, they recently pulled off an upset, defeating the Atlanta Hawks 122-114 despite entering the game as 6.5-point underdogs with only a 32% chance of winning. This recent triumph may provide the Nets with a boost, but they still face a daunting challenge in Boston.

For bettors, there’s considerable interest in player prop markets, particularly surrounding Jayson Tatum. His Points and Rebounds prop opened at Over 36.5 and has since moved to 37.5, indicating sharp action on the Over. With the Celtics enjoying extra rest after three days off, they will look to leverage that advantage against a struggling Nets squad. This matchup promises to be a compelling encounter, especially for those looking to place bets on the outcome.
