The Boston Celtics got a big win in Minnesota last night, and they have to come right back tonight in Houston. Boston has not played their best basketball over the past few weeks. The last time they played back-to-back games, they lost to Memphis at home 127-121. Boston has been over-valued as they are the defending NBA Champions, just 14-20 ATS. They will miss Kristaps Porzingas again, and likely Jaylen Bron, as both have ankle injuries. It is challenging for this team to play unrested and miss two of their top three scorers. Houston is off to a 22-11 start on the season, and the Rockets trail the Grizzlies by just a half-game for second place in the West. This is a bigger game for Houston, which is 8-3 in the season, compared to the East. Make the play on Houston.
