Why the Celtics can cover
Forward Jayson Tatum excels as the catalyst offensively. The Duke product crashes the boards, leading the team in both points (28.2) and rebounds (9). In his last outing, Tatum notched 45 points, 13 rebounds and six assists.
Guard Jrue Holiday will be energized to suit up against his former team. Holiday thrives as a two-way force in the backcourt. He plays defense at such a high level to go along with his superb playmaking ability. The two-time All-Star is first on the team in assists (5.1) with 12.8 points and 7.4 rebounds. On Nov. 17 versus the Raptors, Holiday had 14 points, eight rebounds and five assists. See which team to pick here.
Why the Bucks can cover
Forward Giannis Antetokounmpo is a freakish athlete who can dominate in the open court. Antetokounmpo has great handles and instincts in the lane defensively. The seven-time All-Star selection is averaging a team-high 30.2 points with 10.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game. He’s racked up 40-plus points in back-to-back games. In his last outing, Antetokounmpo totaled 42 points, 13 boards, and eight assists.
Guard Damian Lillard (probable, oblique) has the ability to be a dominant offensive force. Lillard is a skilled finisher at the rim with effortless shooting range. The seven-time All-Star logged 24.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game. He supplied at least 25 points in three of his last four games.
