Boston Celtics Young Duo May Lead To Regular Season Crown

The Boston Celtics are the current Eastern Conference Champion. Sportsbooks give them the shortest odds to lead the league in regular season wins.

The odds are based on the age of Boston's foundational pieces. Jayson Tatum is 24 and Jaylen Brown is 26.

Boston Celtics have Tatum, Brown and Durant as their main players. Kevin Durant played more games than Ben Simmons and Kyrie Irving combined last season. Los Angeles Clippers have Paul George, Kawhi Leonard and Chris Paul. Golden State Warriors have a lot of injuries and they are unlikely to play their stars enough. Milwaukee Bucks have Giannis Antetokounmpo and are the best bet to win the league. Phoenix Suns have the sale of the franchise and their players are too young to be effective.   They are +800 odds to lead the NBA. They have Devin Booker, Devin, and Paul Paul, who are in their 30s.

Boston Celtics have Tatum and Brown, who are young, but proven All-Stars. Golden State Warriors are unlikely to play their stars enough to lead the league in wins. Brooklyn Nets have Kevin Durant, the team's foundational piece, playing more games than Ben Simmons and Kyrie Irving combined last season. Milwaukee Bucks have Giannis Antetokounmpo, a player who has played at least 60 games every season of his career. Phoenix Suns have the pending sale of the franchise and are +800 odds to win the title. The Los Angeles Clippers have Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, both at 31, and they are both unable to stay healthy.

The Boston Celtics are betting on their team to win the league title. The team won 17-5 after the All-Star break last season. They have a 53.5 regular season win total.
