New York Knicks vs Boston Celtics Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Stephen Abiola | in NBA Picks
The NBA is finally back on the basketball court. On Tuesday night, defending champions Boston Celtics will open the season with a tricky matchup against New York Knicks at the TD Garden. The Celtics will be looking to repeat their last season's heroics that saw them win 62 matches. However, stats show that winning back-to-back championships is no mean feat, although the Celtics are exceptional. They can take one step towards another dominant campaign with a win against the new-look Knicks. New York had a solid 2023-24 campaign that saw them play runners-up to the Celtics in the East. This could be their time to topple the Celtics as the Eastern Conference champions.

Our New York Knicks vs Boston Celtics Prediction
Boston enters the new season after a relatively quiet offseason. They will hope that this strategy pays out as they'll start the season without Kristaps Porzingis, who has been out since June with a foot injury. The earliest he is expected to return is in December. The Knicks, on the other hand, boosted their ranks with the re-signing of OG Anunoby. However, they also have several injury concerns, with Precious Achiuwa listed as doubtful for this encounter. The Knicks will want to make an early season statement against the Celtics. However, that may not happen on Tuesday. Our prediction for Boston Celtics vs New York Knicks: Boston Celtics to cover -6 spread.
