Chicago pulled out a win at Orlando on Friday night as Lauri Markannen finished with 25 points and 11 rebounds, but don't expect the lowly Bulls to do it two nights in a row. Boston has covered the spread the last five meetings, including a 133-77 annihilation on Dec. 8 and the Celtics have covered their last three games following a 98-97 loss at Milwaukee on Thursday as a six-point underdog. The Celtics also won the first meeting this season 111-82 in November and Boston is 8-2 ATS its last 10 games versus teams with .400 or worse winning percentages. The Bulls are 3-13 ATS their last 16 home games and 4-11 ATS their last 15 games following a win. Look for Boston to rebound from Thursday's loss, so lay the points with the Celtics.
