Boston won at Denver 121-101 yesterday, but the back-to-back shouldn't be a problem for the Celtics, who have won five in a row in that situation.  Isaiah Thomas scored 22 points with 12 assists, and Jared Sullinger added 16 points with 11 rebounds against the Nuggets as the Celtics shot 48.5 percent. Minnesota has lost three of its last four games, including 103-95 at home against New York on Saturday. Karl Anthony-Towns and Andrew Wiggins finished with 24 points apiece, but the Timberwolves lowered their home record to 9-20. Boston won the first meeting, 113-99, on Dec. 21st shooting 51.7 percent from the field, and Minnesota is allowing 46.6 percent on the season. The Celtics are on a current 6-2 ATS run and 6-2 ATS after a win of 10-plus points. Minnesota is 10-26-1 ATS its last 37 home games. Play the Celtics.
