The San Antonio Spurs and Boston Celtics meet Sunday in NBA action at the TD Garden. Let’s preview this game and give out a pick and prediction.

The San Antonio Spurs are averaging 112.4 points on 46.6 percent shooting and allowing 122 points on 50.5 percent shooting. Keldon Johnson is averaging 21.8 points and 5 rebounds, while Devin Vassell is averaging 18.8 points and 3.6 assists. Devonte’ Graham is the third double-digit scorer and Tre Jones is grabbing 3.4 rebounds. The San Antonio Spurs are shooting 34.8 percent from beyond the arc and 74.1 percent from the free throw line. The San Antonio Spurs are allowing 39.2 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 43.4 rebounds per game.

The Boston Celtics are averaging 117.5 points on 47.3 percent shooting and allowing 112.2 points on 46.5 percent shooting. Jayson Tatum is averaging 30.1 points and 9 rebounds, while Jaylen Brown is averaging 26.8 points and 3.3 assists. Malcolm Brogdon is the third double-digit scorer and Derrick White is grabbing 3.4 rebounds. The Boston Celtics are shooting 37.6 percent from beyond the arc and 82 percent from the free throw line. The Boston Celtics are allowing 35.1 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 45.1 rebounds per game.

The Spurs are 7-22 ATS in their last 29 road games and 7-21 ATS in their last 28 games overall. The Celtics are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games playing on 1 days rest. The over is 16-7 in Spurs last 23 road games. The over is 9-4 in Celtics last 13 overall. The Spurs are 17-4-1 ATS in the last 22 meetings in Boston and 19-6-1 ATS in the last 26 meetings.

I don’t want to back the San Antonio Spurs as much as the next guy, considering they don’t cover numbers despite being big underdogs nightly. However, this line is absolutely massive, and the Celtics are just 6-8 ATS as double-digit favorites this season. The Celtics win as favorites by an average of 6 points. Huge line. It’s Spurs or pass for me.
