The Nuggets continue their road trip to Boston on Saturday and they’ll be looking for a 5th straight win. Nikola Jokic top-scored for Denver in their latest win over the Pacers and they successfully overcame an 18-point deficit. However, they cannot afford to do the same against this Celtics team. Especially with the Nuggets struggling against Boston, having lost all of the last 6 matchups. But they’ll be injury-free coming into Saturday’s matchup and that’ll give them the best chance of an upset.<\/span><\/p>\n The Celtics are also looking to extend their winning streak to 5 games on Saturday morning. They trashed the Pistons on Thursday by 16 pts and it was all about the dynamic duo of Tatum\/Brown. Jayson Tatum continued his MVP form with 31 pts and Brown also finished with 30 pts. So both players are worth a look in the 30+ point markets against Denver. In injury news, they’ll be missing Brogdon in this one as he recovers from a hamstring injury.<\/span><\/p>\n With Denver struggling to beat the likes of the Pacers and Spurs lately, they should struggle to keep up with Boston. The Nuggets are just 1-4 ATS on the road and have a terrible record at the TD Garden. Boston to cover on the back of Tatum and Brown.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n Boston are 4-1 at the TD Garden this season. Denver has lost 10 of their last 12 in Boston.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\n The Celtics are looking for a 6th straight win over the Nuggets and have won 7 of the last 10.<\/span><\/p>\n Best Bet<\/b><\/p>\n Boston Celtics -4.5 = $1.89<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n The Timberwolves are looking to break out of a slump after winning just 1 of their last 5. They’ve lost their last 3 by 10+ points and will face another tough challenge in Memphis. Limiting turnovers will be one of the key areas to improve as they committed 19 against Phoenix on Thursday. However, they have been missing Gobert for a few games and he returned to score 25 pts against the Suns last time out. In terms of injuries, Naz Reid is out so that’ll give the likes of Prince and Anderson more playing time.<\/span><\/p>\n The Grizzlies are 4-1 in their last 5 and outside of a 31-point win over Charlotte, their games have been decided by 6 or fewer points. These two sides battled hard in the playoffs last season with Memphis winning 4-2 so they’ll come into this home game with a lot of confidence. The Bane and Morant duo were on fire last time out as they beat the Spurs in OT 124-122. Ja Morant finished with 32 pts and 5 assists. Meanwhile, Bane also scored 32 points and hit 5 of 10 three-point attempts. Bane is offering excellent value odds to get past 30+ pts again and Morant is the safe bet with his high usage in this offence.<\/span><\/p>\n This total looks a bit high considering a few key trends. The Grizzlies have only given up 106 pts per game in their last 5 and the Under is 4-1 when they meet the T-Wolves. Minnesota also holds a 5-0 Unders record and 10-4 in their last 14.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n Memphis are 6-1 in their last 7 at home. Minnesota has lost 7 of their last 8 at this venue.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\nMinnesota Timberwolves (5-7) at Memphis Grizzlies (8-4)<\/b><\/h2>\n
