The Celtics are coming into the game here with an offense that is not anything like it should be on the year. The Celtics are winning, but it is mainly from the defensive side of the ball if that gives you any idea on how horrible the offense has been playing on the year so far. What else will be an issue is the Celtics are going to have to keep the defensive play at a high level to support the offense.
The Celtics have seen Kyrie Irving is leading the Celtics in scoring on the season with a total of 20.7 points a game on the year. The Celtics have seen Irving lead the team in assist as well with 5.5 a game. When it comes to cleaning up the glass the Celtics have relied on Jayson Tatum who has pulled in 6.9 boards a game.

Final Score, Boston Celtics win and cover ATS 112-100.
