Boston
The Celtics are aiming to accomplish what the Clippers were unable to do on Monday: halt the Pistons’ current seven-game winning streak.
The Pistons secured a victory over the Clippers with a score of 106-97. A significant part of their success can be credited to Cade Cunningham, who nearly achieved a double-double with 32 points and nine rebounds.

With this performance, the Celtics reaffirmed their status as one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. They currently hold the second spot, just behind the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Celtics-Pistons Best Bet
The Pistons have lost the last 12 to the Celtics. This one means more to them as this isn’t the same old Pistons team from seasons past. They’re firmly in the playoff picture.
Take the Pistons to cover the 4.5 point spread in this one.
Best Bet: Pistons +4.5 Points at -105 odds.
