We’ve got a full slate of NBA action on tap for tonight highlighted by a potential Eastern Conference playoff preview when Cleveland travels to play at Boston this evening.

Each game going forward is important for both teams as the Celtics chase the top seed in the East and the Cavs hope to hold off the Knicks for a top-four seed and home-court advantage in the opening round.

I have a prediction for this game that I’ll share with you shortly, but not before I let you know how to utilize the highest-valued promotion in sports betting at Caesars Sportsbook to use on this game.

If you hang around for another minute or two, you’ll see why that’s not such a bad idea.

Prediction for Cavs vs Celtics

Fresh off a loss to the Knicks, the Celtics could be at full strength tonight if Jaylen Brown (personal reasons) returns to the lineup.

With a complete rotation and a home-court advantage, it’s really hard not to like Boston in this matchup. However, -210 moneyline odds don’t really intrigue me, so I’ll be targeting a different play here.

The most glaring stat for this game, in my opinion, is how different Cleveland is on the road compared to at home. The Cavs are just 13-18 on the road but are 26-7 at home!

You have to go all the way down to the Toronto Raptors at the No. 9 seed in the East before you find a team with a worse road record than Cleveland.

Regardless of where this game is played, though, these teams are undoubtedly two of the best in the association. Boston is third in the NBA in offensive efficiency and sixth in defensive efficiency while Cleveland is ninth and third, respectively.

These teams have met twice this season with BOTH somehow ending in Cavs overtime wins.

I just don’t see Cleveland beating Boston three times in a row (even though the last two games were months ago), ESPECIALLY on their home court.

I’m taking Boston to cover -5 tonight and if you’re looking for a prop play, look into Brown scoring OVER 24.5 points. Brown has scored 30+ points in both games against Cleveland this season and should be well-rested after missing the game at New York on Monday.

Predictions: BOS -5, Brown OVER 24.5 points

Regardless of what you bet on, make sure you secure some insurance for yourself. Sign up with Caesars today before their offer ends.
