| Our Pick |
| Two teams with some of the best scoring talent in the league face-off, so why take the under? Washington have been averaging almost 128 points per game in their last ten, but average just 107 per game against the Celtics. It’s not a matter of defense, but these two teams grind on each other in their meetings. |

| Our Pick |
| All respect to Kemba Walker, but Jayson Tatum doesn’t have his running mate in this matchup. What does that mean? He’ll be putting up a high volume of shots. Tatum has scored over 30 points in 20 of his 64 games played. Washington don’t have a defender or scheme that is expected to slow him down. |
Charlotte Hornets vs Indiana Pacers
Two teams that disappointed in the second half of the season, the Charlotte Hornets face of against the Indiana Pacers!

Odds from PointsBet. Get up to four RISK FREE bets up to $1000 or check out more offers and promo codes for the best online sportsbooks.
| Our Pick |
| In Sabonis’ last nine games of the regular season he averaged 23.0 points, 14.1 rebounds, and 10.7 assists per game. That was with a fair number of players unavailable. But against the Hornets this season he’s averaged just 17.3 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 6.7 assists. The difference is Charlotte’s athleticism and recovery, as well as their tenacity in the paint. |
