NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans a live bet angle between Boston and Washington:
“With three double-digit victories against Washington this season, there’s no reason to think it won’t happen again but laying -20.5 points in an NBA game is tough to do. I’d look at a live bet on the Celtics or a better number on the Wizards if this is truly a blowout.”
