NBA: Magic vs. Celtics, 3:30pm EST OVER 205.5 Total Points (-110) 1 unit (Fanatics)
The defending champion Boston Celtics have secured back-to-back 60-win regular seasons for the first time since 2008, the year they won the title. While they haven’t quite been as hungry as last season, their offensive potential remains frightening. Payton Pritchard is in the mix for Sixth Man of the Year, and Jaylen Brown, who missed the last few games, is expected to return here. The Magic, meanwhile, finished 5th in the East after overcoming injuries to clinch a postseason berth. They fell apart in the final quarter against Atlanta in the Play-In, but Cole Anthony stepped up, and Anthony Black showed a much-improved effort to make it to this stage. The Banchero–Franz Wagner duo continues to lead the team. With the Celtics’ full starting five expected to be available, I don’t expect this to be a low-scoring game.
