JefeBet Prediction
Even though the Clippers managed a win in their most recent game, it is the Celtics who are the favorites. They have been the most solid team and have been dominant against their rivals. Jayson Tatum continues to play at his highest level and there seems to be no stopping him.
Prediction: Boston Celtics win by 7 points.
