New York Knicks @ Boston Celtics Preview

The Boston Celtics, boasting a strong 65-23 record this season, are heavy favorites as they host the New York Knicks (56-33) at TD Garden. The Celtics have been dominant at home and are looking to capitalize on their superior depth and offensive firepower. Meanwhile, the Knicks, who have been solid on the road with a 26-17 record, will aim to pull off an upset by leveraging their defensive tenacity and key contributions from their star players.

Historic Head-to-Head Stats and Analysis

In their last five meetings, the Celtics hold a 3-2 advantage against the spread. Boston has averaged 121 points per game in these matchups, showcasing their offensive prowess. The Knicks, however, have managed to keep games competitive, with their defense limiting Boston's efficiency in key moments. This matchup will likely hinge on whether the Knicks can slow down the Celtics' high-octane offense.

Pick: Celtics -10.5 (-110)

The Celtics have been dominant at home and have consistently covered the spread in recent matchups against the Knicks. With their depth and offensive efficiency, they are well-positioned to cover the 10.5-point spread. The Knicks' road success is notable, but Boston's firepower and home-court advantage make them the safer pick.

Top Player Prop Picks

1. Jayson Tatum Over 28.5 Points (-110)

Tatum has been the centerpiece of Boston's offense, averaging over 30 points per game in his last five outings. Against a Knicks defense that has struggled to contain elite scorers, Tatum is poised for another big night.

2. Julius Randle Over 9.5 Rebounds (-110)

Randle has been a force on the boards, averaging double-digit rebounds in his last ten games. With Boston's size in the frontcourt, Randle will need to be active on the glass to keep the Knicks competitive.

3. Jaylen Brown Over 2.5 Three-Pointers Made (+120)

Brown has been shooting the ball well from beyond the arc, hitting at least three triples in four of his last six games. With the Knicks likely focusing their defensive attention on Tatum, Brown should find open looks from deep.
