Current Form:
The Celtics opened as -162 favorites ahead of their third meeting with the Knicks this season. Boston is coming into the match riding a five-match win streak, during which they have prevented each of their opponents from scoring over 100 points. Jaylen Brown has been steadily building his case for this year’s regular-season MVP after leading the Celtics to the second-best record in the Eastern Conference at 34-18. He averages 29.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 4.7 assists through 47 games this season.
The Knicks’ 8-game winning streak fell at the hands of the Detroit Pistons, 80-118, on February 6. With Karl Anthony Towns sitting out with an injury, New York scored only 80 points on 35 percent field goal shooting against the unforgiving Pistons’ offense. The Knicks sit third in the Eastern Conference with a 33-19 record.

Our Boston Celtics vs New York Knicks Prediction
Boston is putting on a defensive clinic in their last five games, and that makes the Celtics a no-brainer pick to cover the spread against the Knicks. Nikola Vucevic, who racked up 11 points and 12 rebounds in his Celtics debut, adds more muscle and ceiling to Boston’s frontline that will get even better once Jayson Tatum returns to the lineup. Meanwhile, the Knicks direly missed Karl Anthony Town’s two-way presence in their loss to Detroit. Towns is questionable for Sunday’s ballgame vs. the Knicks because of an eye injury.
Our betting prediction for the Boston Celtics vs. the New York Knicks: The Celtics -3.5 points
