Friday’s Best NBA Bets: Cavaliers vs. Celtics

(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)

Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Boston Celtics (-2.5) | O/U 233.5 (-108/-112)

When these two teams meet, there is potential for an exciting game. Each matchup has been close this year, with all three decided by seven points or fewer.

It's been over a month since the Cavaliers last lost back-to-back games, winning 12 out of 13. They are currently on an eight-game winning streak. The offense has been driving this team during this run, scoring a league-high 125.8 points per game. What proves how well they're shooting is that they are sixth in field goal attempts and second in field goals made.

The Celtics will be able to keep up with the Cavaliers offensively, and they'll do it by chucking threes. We've come to expect the Celtics to live and die by the three, as they lead the league in three-point shooting. An astonishing 53.6% of their shots are from behind the arc, with no other team shooting more than 47%. Their volume of shooting is helping them lead in three-pointers made per game (17.8).

Cleveland can keep up, as they are right behind in made three-pointers per game (16.2). These two will trade blows throughout the game. Boston plays their opponent's game well. We could see a high-scoring matchup.

Pick: Over 233.5 Points (-108)
