Boston Celtics vs. New Orleans Pelicans Best Bet

The Pelicans face off against the Celtics tonight, and one of these teams will secure its first win of the season.

Boston may even have some tired legs here coming off of a tough loss on Sunday to the Pistons. The player to target for the Pelicans here is Zion Williamson.

Despite Boston not allowing a ton of points in the paint, the Celtics have seemingly zero rim resistance, and they are allowing the most second-chance points in the NBA so far.

Zion should be able to cut to the rim with ease and attack the interior. Zion has scored 27 in both games this season, and the force he brings to each game will pay dividends in this matchup.

Boston has not played a truly dominant interior scoring threat, but just surrendered 24 points and 18 rebounds to Jalen Duren on Sunday.

I expect Zion to put his stamp on this game.

Celtics vs. Pelicans Best Bet: Zion Williamson Over 25.5 Points (-130)
