Memphis Grizzlies vs Boston Celtics Betting Preview

The Memphis Grizzlies (15-8) and Boston Celtics (19-4) are set to clash at TD Garden on Saturday night at 8:00 PM ET. Boston, a team sizzling at home with seven straight wins, enters the contest as 6.5-point favorites. However, it's important to consider the context of this matchup as the Celtics are facing a back-to-back, having battled the Milwaukee Bucks just a day before. The lack of rest could pose a challenge, potentially impacting their performance despite their hot streak and status as favorites.

The odds currently imply a 69% chance of a Boston victory, with their moneyline set at -250. The Grizzlies, meanwhile, sit at a +210 moneyline, which translates to a 31% chance of coming out on top. Memphis has been impressive lately, winning 11 of their last 15 games. Fresh off a 115-110 victory against the Sacramento Kings, the Grizzlies are poised to challenge the Celtics, especially considering Boston's limited recovery time.

Fans and bettors looking for an intriguing player prop might want to focus on Memphis's Jaren Jackson Jr. His points and rebounds market has been the hot ticket, priced at over 24.5 (-125), with sharp bettors favoring this line.

The Celtics, coming off a nail-biting 111-105 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, will rely on their home-court prowess and depth to navigate the fatigue factor. Even though Boston enters as favorites, Memphis's recent form and the rest advantage make this matchup a compelling watch, with plenty of betting angles to consider.
