NBA: Celtics at Cavaliers Pick & Prediction

The top two teams in the Eastern Conference, the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers, will square off tonight at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. The 1-seeded Cavs are a short favorite as they stand 5.5 games ahead of the C's for the top of the East.

NBA fans can watch this nationally televised game on TNT/truTV or the streaming service, Max.

This will be the third of four matchups for this season as these squads split their first two games. The two matchups were decided by three and four points, respectively, so you can expect a highly competitive matchup in this one.

The Celtics haven't started out the season as hot as they did in last year's title run, but that doesn't mean they aren't just as formidable as most of the notable sportsbooks still list Boston as the odds-on favorite to hoist the Larry O'Brien trophy.

The Celtics were able to overcome a 26-point deficit en route to their third straight victory in their most recent win over the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Cavaliers currently hold the third-best odds to win the 2025 NBA title as they hold the best record in the NBA at 40-9.

The Cavs come into this matchup a little banged up, with Max Strus, Darius Garland, and Jarrett Allen nursing some injuries while Dean Wade and Isaac Okoro are out.

While Cleveland is missing some key depth pieces, Boston will get Payton Pritchard back into the fold after he missed Sunday's showdown with Philly.

The Celtics have been a lackluster 19-30-1 ATS (2nd worst in the NBA) this season, as they've covered the spread just six times coming off a victory. However, you can expect the Celtics to bring their A-game tonight as they'll be just 4.5 games behind Cleveland for the East's highly-coveted 1-seed with a win.

Watch out for Jayson Tatum, as he scored 33 in each of the first two matchups. For more insights, check out Action PRO, and before you wager, check out our bet365 bonus code for a great offer.
