Celtics Have Arguably Been The Best In The NBA
What the Boston Celtics have been able to accomplish ever since Christmas is very impressive. They’re going to be coming into this one on a two-game winning streak and have won eight of their last 10 games.
In Bostons’ most recent game, they were able to come away with an impressive win over the Sacramento Kings, they won 126-97.
On the season, Boston has the number four rated net rating, the number 16 rated offensive rating, and the number one rated defensive rating.
Thunder Are Short-Handed
The Oklahoma City Thunder have had to deal with a few injuries the past few weeks, including injuries to both Josh Giddey and Lu Dort. There is even a chance that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander will not play in this one and if that is the case, Oklahoma City has virtually no chance in this one.
They’re going to be coming into this one after losing to the Orlando Magic on Saturday. They ended up losing by five points in this one as Darius Paisley led the way with 18 points.

Free NBA Picks — Celtics vs Thunder
For this game, I’m going to go with the Boston Celtics to cover the spread. I’m not the biggest fan of taking spreads over 10 points, but I just don’t see a way that Oklahoma City is going to be able to compete in this one.
I’m also going to throw some money on Jayson Tatum to score over 25 points, but I am a bit worried about that one considering he might not play as much as he normally does because Boston might blow OKC out.
