The Boston Celtics face off against the Miami Heat in an Eastern Conference showdown on Monday Night. The Celtics, with a 37-16 record and second place in the Eastern Conference, are favored to win but may struggle as a betting favorite.
Jayson Tatum leads the team with 26.9 points per game, while Jaylen Brown adds 22.9 points, and Kristaps Porzingis contributes 19.1 points. The Celtics have averaged 117.5 points per game.
In contrast, Miami has a 25-25 record and is currently seventh in the East. Despite recent ups and downs, they are hoping that trading away Jimmy Butler will spark their team. Tyler Herro leads the Heat with 23.7 points per game, while Bam Adebayo averages a double-double with 17.0 points and 10.0 rebounds.
Given the Celtics’ struggles as a betting favorite, the Heat are an attractive option to cover the spread. Additionally, Tyler Herro is expected to attempt 20 or more shots in this matchup, making him a strong pick for those looking to place a parlay bet with +160 payout.
