Cleveland Cavaliers will be looking to maintain the perfect home record on Wednesday night when Boston Celtics come to visit.
Analysis and Reason for Predictions
Boston Celtics will be looking for revenge on the Eastern Conference rivals Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday evening when the two teams meet each other for the second time in just five days.
Their clash from Friday night offered a huge drama as the Cavs came on top 123-132 on the road after overtime.
They have scored 18 points in the overtime crunch time, something Boston Celtics will need to think about ahead of the reverse outing at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
The Celtics did bounce back in the back-to-back game on Saturday, beating Washington Wizards 112-94 on the home floor to improve their overall record to 4-2 on the season.
Jayson Tatum took just 15 shots on the occasion despite going 50% from the three-point line (5-for-10).
Cleveland Cavaliers started the season with the away loss to Toronto Raptors but went on to win five straight matches since.
Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff is doing an amazing job with this Cavaliers’ team early in the season. The Cavs are inside the top four in the whole league in points per game and points allowed per game this season.
Their latest success came on Saturday evening when Cleveland clinched a 121-108 victory over New York Knicks on the home floor.
The Cavs have scored at least 117 points in four of the previous five outings, including 132 in the road win over Boston Celtics on Friday.
We are in for another spectacular contest between these two teams on Wednesday. The previous one saw Caris LeVert and Donovan Mitchell scoring 41 points apiece for the Cavs.
We are tempted by the hosts to clinch their fifth straight win at the -110 odds. You can also take Jayson Tatum Under 27.5 points in the clash against the third-best defense in the league at the -110 odds.
