Philadelphia 76ers vs Boston Celtics Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
A huge Eastern Conference clash in the NBA tips off on Wednesday with the first-place Boston Celtics taking on the second-place Philadelphia 76ers. Both teams have experienced red-hot starts to the 2023/24 campaign and are the current occupiers of the top two spots in the conference. The 5-1 Celtics suffered their first loss of the season in their most recent outing, a 114-109 overtime defeat to the Minnesota Timberwolves. They’ll now play their third road game in the last five days before returning home to take on the Nets for the In-Season Tournament. The oddsmakers clearly feel that this is the Celtics year as they are the consensus favorites for the NBA championship. New addition Kristaps Porzingis looks like he could be the missing piece. The big Latvian is averaging 19.5 points per game and 6.8 rebounds on a very efficient 55% shooting and 43% from three.
The 76ers come into this clash as the hottest team currently in the NBA. A 146-128 home win over the Washington Wizards on Monday means the team has won its last five games in a row. This is the final game of a lengthy five game home stand for Philly, meaning they have the advantage of no travel fatigue and should be in a good rhythm. After dealing James Harden to the Clippers, the Sixers have certainly not appeared to be missing the former MVP. Tyrese Maxey, in particular, has really stepped his game up and is playing at an All-Star level with an average of 25.5 points per game and 7.3 assists on 50% shooting and 44% from three. Joel Embiid is coming off a monster 48 point night against the Wizards which saw him shoot 17 for 25 from the field. He’s now up to 32.5 points per game on the season.
