Clippers vs. Suns prediction: Clippers +3.5 (-104)

The Suns are among the worst teams in the league against the spread, with a 2-7 ATS record. Phoenix is also playing the second night of a back-to-back after Monday's 26-point home loss to the Spurs.

The Clippers' early road struggles have come against the top teams in the West, so I anticipate a much better effort tonight against a 3-6 Phoenix squad, especially with an extra day of rest compared to the Suns. There's value backing the road underdog L.A. to cover the spread here. I bet the Clippers +3.5 at FanDuel's market-best -104 odds.

Celtics vs. 76ers prediction: Under 218.5 (-110)

I don't expect Jaylen Brown's first game against his former team to be an offensive shootout. With two of the league's top defenses, Boston and Philadelphia games are 16-5 to the Under this season. It's easy to see why: The Celtics rank fourth in defensive rating, while the 76ers sit sixth.

Even though both of these rosters have changed since the last time they met, including Brown switching sides, Celtics vs. 76ers matchups have typically been low-scoring in years past. I bet a half-unit on Under 218.5 at BetMGM, where I would play down to -115 odds.

Celtics vs. 76ers prediction: Jaylen Brown Over 6.5 rebounds (+100)

Speaking of Jaylen Brown, I expect a motivated performance from the former Finals MVP in his first matchup versus the Celtics since leaving Boston, particularly on the glass.

It's difficult to project his scoring against an elite defense, which is why I'm targeting Brown's rebounding prop instead. He's been a committed rebounder with Philadelphia, going Over this total in four of his last six games entering tonight. BetMGM offers plus-money odds on a 6.5 total, but there's value playing down to -110 if needed at the best sports betting sites.
