NBA Best Bets: Plays and analysis for Monday, December 5th

Boston Celtics are playing in Toronto tonight. Toronto is playing well at home this season and is mostly healthy. Boston has been away for two weeks and are on a back-to-back. Boston won the last game with Brooklyn on Sunday. The Celtics have a +6.7 net rating in non-garbage time at Scotiabank Arena.

Paul George and Kawhi Leonard are questionable to play for Toronto. Charlotte is still without LaMelo Ball, Gordon Hayward, Cody Martin and Dennis Smith Jr. and is also without Wendell Carter Jr., Gary Harris, Chuma Okeke and Jalen Suggs. Milwaukee will have Khris Middleton back on the floor, but they will be without three core players. Orlando has lost eight straight and it is 1-6 ATS in its last seven games. Trae Young missed the win over Denver on Friday because he refused to participate. John Collins is out for the next two weeks. Oklahoma City is 4-1 ATC in last five games and has the third best cover rate on road (8-4 AATS, 66.7%).
