💰 Celtics vs. Heat best bet
See all of our experts' NBA picks for today's slate.
The Celtics are in a strong position to cover the -5 spread tonight against the Heat, even with the game being in Miami. Boston has been excellent on the road, posting a winning record away from home and consistently covering as a road favorite this season.
They also have a clear edge statistically, ranking near the top of the NBA in both offensive and defensive rating, while Miami has struggled recently and sits below .500 against winning teams. This Celtics team has looked completely different with Jayson Tatum's return, they should have a big performance in this affair.
