NBA Betting Picks for Today
Boston Celtics at Utah Jazz
Celtics Over 124.5 Points (-110)
The Boston Celtics' offense is rolling, and this is a superb matchup for them.
Away Team Total Points
On the year, Boston sits fourth in offensive rating at a clip of 120.8. They've been even better of late, posting a 122.7 offensive rating over their last 10 games.
The Jazz are going to have a tough time slowing down Boston. Not only is Utah next to last in defensive rating this campaign, they're playing at the fourth-fastest pace.
Utah has allowed at least 126 points in nine of its last 10 games. In seven games against teams that rank in the top five in offensive rating, the Jazz have permitted an average of 130.4 points.
Given that Boston takes the third-most three-point tries per game (42.8), the Celtics could push well past this line if the three-ball is falling, which has me interested in some alternate markets. Boston to score over 128.5 points is listed at +152 odds.
Sacramento Kings at Los Angeles Clippers
Maxime Raynaud to Record a Double-Double (+165)
With Domantas Sabonis missing a significant chunk of the season so far, Maxime Raynaud has taken advantage of the extra opportunity, and he can have a productive outing tonight against a Los Angeles Clippers squad that is sans Ivica Zubac.
Zubac being out makes the Clips a much more appealing matchup for bigs.
With Zubac off the floor, opponents are taking 27.4% of their shots at the rim, compared to 23.5% when Zubac is on the floor. It's a similar story on the glass. LA is giving up 13.6 offensive rebounds per 100 possessions when Zubac is on the court and 17.9 per 100 possessions when Zubac is off the floor.
This is a good spot for Raynaud, who is averaging 16.8 points and 10.0 boards per game over his last six outings.
The rookie is -480 to score 10-plus points, so rebounds will likely be his toughest hurdle to a double-double. He's pulled down double-digit rebounds four times across his last six games and should be able to take advantage of a short-handed Clippers interior.
