The two best teams in the East face off for the final time this regular season as Boston hosts Cleveland Saturday. The Celtics have gone 2-1 so far head-to-head, with each of the previous matchups coming down to the end.
Boton won the first one in November 120-117 while the Cavs took revenge 115-11 in December. In early February, the Celtics held off a late Cavs comeback to triumph 112-105. Cleveland has won eight straight games, while Boston did lose to Detroit Thursday but had won 10 of 11 before that.
The injury report favors the Cavs as they have no key players listed, and Boston has Jaylen Brown and Jrue Holiday listed as questionable. Brown did miss the game against Detroit. Expect the full-strength Cavs to take advantage with the smart play being to cover +3.5 at 1.91 odds at Befocus.
