Back-to-Back for Celtics
Playing the second leg of a back-to-back isn’t easy, especially coming off an overtime loss.
The Celtics looked to have the win in the bag against the Warriors, but they could not close out Steph Curry and his teammates in the final quarter.
Losing consecutive games hasn’t been the norm for the Celtics, who are 20-6. However, not covering betting spreads on the road has been a problem.
They are 2-8-2 against the spread away from TD Garden, and that’s a big concern for our NBA betting picks.
They are +2.5 underdogs against the Kings, and that’s where we thought they would be priced. Playing consecutive road games makes it challenging, and they’re tricky to include in Celtics vs Kings betting tips.
Class is on the side of the Celtics, who were almost a part of NBA finals history last season. Something close to that performance would be enough to beat the Kings.
Kings Leading the Way
The Kings lead the Pacific standings with a 16-9 record, and a win over the Celtics would give them some breathing room.
They have four wins from their last five games, including wins over the Thunder, Nets, and Wizards. They are solid wins, and the Kings have been made favorites at the sportsbook.
It’s not a surprising line, especially after scoring 143 points against the Wizards.
De’Aaron Fox had 30 points, and they were helped with a 46-point third quarter.
“When you have multiple guys playing at a high level in the same game, it’s extremely hard to beat us,” Fox said. “We want to be able to consistently be able to play at this level. That’s the type of work we put in. We’re just continuing to play the right way. And we continue to go out and become a better defensive team.”
The Kings are 14-11 ATS and 7-6 at home. It’s a solid enough record to back the Kings with confidence, and they are playing with confidence.
Kings to Capitalize
The Kings are there to take advantage of the Celtics playing consecutive road NBA games.
They are playing well enough to beat most NBA teams, and although the Celtics have a quality roster, the Kings have enjoyed playing their last three games at home.
Our Celtics vs Kings betting tips are taking the Kings -2.5, which is a fair line. It could move to around -3 on game night, so bettors should take the current line.
We also think it could be a low-scoring game, so include the under in your NBA picks for Wednesday’s feature.
