Randy’s Pick
The Boston Celtics have been the sharper team this season, and they’re going to get the benefit of the doubt at home. However, 5.5 points is a lot for the Bucks, especially with Lillard being considered probable. Also, the Bucks are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 meetings against the Celtics. You’re not going to get the Bucks in this big of an underdog role often this season. I’ll take it. Give me the Bucks.
