Boston Celtics vs Detroit Pistons Betting Odds, Wagers, and Spreads
In a surprising turn of events, the Detroit Pistons managed to pull off a victory against the Boston Celtics in their last encounter. The Pistons, who have been struggling with their field goal and three-point shooting this season, held the Celtics to under 100 points, a feat they hadn't achieved against any team so far this season.
The game was a closely contested one, with the Celtics coming within a Brown missed three-pointer of forcing overtime. The Pistons' win was due in large part to the stellar performance of Jerami Grant, who led the team with 24 points. Grant has been on a roll this season, scoring over 24 points in four straight games and shooting an impressive 47% from the floor and 36.7% from beyond the arc.
Rookie Saddiq Bey also had a standout game, contributing 17 points and 7 rebounds. However, the absence of Blake Griffin, the Pistons' second-leading scorer, due to a concussion, was noticeable.
On the other hand, the Celtics struggled offensively in the first quarter, connecting on just two of 13 field goals. Despite a late offensive surge, they were unable to overcome a 23-5 deficit and lost to the Pistons 96-93. Jaylen Brown, the Celtics' leading scorer, managed 21 points in the game, but his efforts were not enough to secure a win.
Looking ahead to their next matchup, the Celtics are a 7.5-point favourite, according to the odds. The moneyline odds stand at Boston Celtics (-330) and Detroit Pistons (265). Interestingly, the odds for the game favouring the Celtics were the same as in their previous encounter.
The game tip-off is scheduled for Sunday at 3pm ET. With Griffin's injury and the Pistons' recent victory, the Celtics will need to step up their game if they want to secure a win in their rematch.
