Celtics vs. Clippers Odds, Picks, Predictions: How Will Boston Respond Following Rare Loss?

The Boston Celtics lost to the Golden State Warriors last time out. They will play the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday. Los Los has split its last four games. It is the first time in weeks that the Clippers have played at home.

The opening line made the Celtics 3.5-point favorites on the road. Most books have kept the line right at 3,5 points. The number of tickets on Celtics at DraftKings is 76%, with 79% of the spread handle on them. 72% on total have come in on Over, while 59% are on Under.

Clippers are 6-2 straight up with Kawhi Leonard in the lineup and are a very fearsome team with him. Boston is 19th on the glass and is still playing without starting center Al Horford and another impact center Robert Williams III. I will take my chances with a fully-loaded Clippers team (minus Norm Powell) against a weakened frontcourt.

BetMGM is offering a good deal on the Clippers. The line is moved from 3.5 to 4. 5 points. DraftKings offers -105 odds on 3-5 points at Draft Kings.
