Premium Pick

Boston gave up an 11-1 run to Milwaukee late in the game on Wednesday that led to a 108-100 loss one night after Gordon Hayward was probably lost for the season due to a broken ankle. The Celtics have an excellent opportunity to bounce back after a day of rest as they face Philadelphia, which they have beaten nine of the last 10 meetings. The 76ers come off a 120-115 loss at Washington as they couldn't overcome the 53 combined points by John Wall and Bradley Beal. Philly has lost nine games in a row dating to last season and it is 0-5 ATS over its last five home games. Ben Simmons and Markelle Fultz made their NBA debuts for the Sixers, but it will take time to acquire some team chemistry. Take the Celtics.
