New Orleans Pelicans vs Boston Celtics Betting Preview

The New Orleans Pelicans face off against the Boston Celtics on January 1, 2023, in a highly anticipated matchup at TD Garden. With the Pelicans struggling at 8-31, they are up against a Celtics squad that boasts a 27-11 record and has been performing well, winning 20 of their last 30 games.

Despite their overall struggles, the Pelicans managed to pull off an upset in their last game, defeating the Philadelphia 76ers 123-115 as 7.0-point underdogs. This win broke a dismal streak of 25 losses in 30 games, providing a glimmer of hope for the Pelicans. Conversely, the Celtics are looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss to the Sacramento Kings, where they fell 114-97.

For bettors looking at player props, Trey Murphy III's points have garnered significant attention, with many expecting him to exceed his current line of Over 17.5 Points (-125).
