Washington Wizards Betting Preview
The Washington Wizards come into this game 2-1 overall after getting their first loss of the season on Sunday 104-90 to the Brooklyn Nets. In that game, the Wizards shot a horrible 34.7% from the field. With Harden and Durant on the court for the Nets, the Wizards can’t shot that bad and expect to win the game.
They’ll now have to face the duo of Tatum and Brown, who combined for 71 points in their Monday night win against the Hornets. Washington’s all star Bradley Beal will need to drop more than 19 points if he wants to lead his team to get that road upset in this one.
The Wizards have looked subpar on offense to start the season, scoring an average of 107.7 points per game, but Beal did miss one of these three games, so that average should improve moving forward.
Washington on defense is currently in the middle of the pack, giving up an average of 107 points per game.
Washington is 1-7 straight up in their last 8 games on the road and the total has gone over in 6 of the Wizards last 9 games against an opponent in the Eastern Conference.
Boston Celtics Betting Preview
Boston comes into this game 2-2 overall after winning their last two in a row including the 140-129 overtime win against Charlotte on Sunday. The Celtics shot 49.5% from the field and 38% from 3-point land, so if they continue putting up stats like that, then you’ll witness back to back double digit wins.
The good news for Boston is that Al Horford was upgraded to probable for this matchup, but Romeo Langford is still listed as questionable with that calf injury.
The Celtics have the sixth best offense in the league to start this 2021-2022 NBA Season. They are scoring an average of 116 points per game.
The huge red flag is their defense, that is currently the worst in the NBA right now. They are giving up an average of 119.8 points per game, but those number will improve over the next couple weeks.
The Celtics are 3-6 against the spread in their last 9 games and the total has gone over in 8 of Boston’s last 10 games at home.
