Our Boston Celtics vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction
While the Celtics are heavily fancied to win this match, the massive -15.5 line does make us a little nervous, given that the Celts have only managed just above a 50% cover rate this season (6-5 ATS).
Additionally, the Hawks are a decent attack, but their defence is almost non-existent at times, and that will be something that the likes of Jayson Tatum will be looking to exploit. The Celts’ forward is averaging over 30 PPG this season and we feel he will be eyeing up another big haul in this one. Our Boston Celtics vs Atlanta Hawks prediction: Jayson Tatum Over 30 points!
If your team in the Boston Celtics and Atlanta Hawks game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
