The Celtics are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 road games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 1 days rest. The Timberwolves are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 Wednesday games and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games. The over is 9-4 in Celtics last 13 overall. The under is 6-2 in Timberwolves last 8 overall. The Celtics are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Minnesota and 15-5-1 ATS in the last 21 meetings.
The Minnesota Timberwolves should be up for this game, and they have some games where they played to the crowd and got big wins. However, the Timberwolves are dealing with a lot of injuries, and it's not easy to hang with the Celtics without a full roster. The Boston Celtics have been one of the more consistent teams all year, and they win as favorites by an average of 5.5 points. Reasonable chalk. Give me the Celtics on the road.
