BOSTON CELTICS VS DENVER NUGGETS SAME-GAME PARLAY:

Boston Celtics Moneyline

Boston are threatening to make NBA history. They are 20-0 at TD Garden. Yes, there have been some near misses along the way, but Joe Mazzulla’s team are making light work of most opponents.

Denver are only 11-10 on the road and 11-11 against teams above .500. The reigning champions have the upside to cause an upset here, but they are just 1-3 as a road dog in 2023-24. We can’t look past the Celtics while they’re on this run.

Kristaps Porzingis over 1.5 blocks

Kristaps Porzingis is averaging 1.8 blocks per game, and he’s cleared this line in three of his last four appearances. While he will inevitably be dragged away from the basket at times by Nikola Jokic, don’t be surprised if Mazzulla puts the former Knick on Aaron Gordon to allow him to roam as a helper.

The Celtics have been unafraid to experiment with their matchups this season, and that could help Porzingis stay close to the basket as a rim protector.

Nikola Jokic over 20.5 assists and rebounds

Nikola Jokic is averaging 21 assists and rebounds per game. He’s cleared this line in four of his last five appearances.

Boston’s higher pace in January could give The Joker a few extra possessions to put up even bigger numbers than usual. Even against a good rebounding team, he could most of the way to this over in rebounds alone.
