Premium Pick

Boston comes off a 128-122 loss at Cleveland on Thursday and is dealing with some injuries, including Al Horford (concussion), who is out, and Kelly Olynyk (shoulder), who has yet to play this season and is questionable for this game. Also, Jae Crowder is out witn an ankle injury. Isaiah Thomas led the Celtics with 30 points against the Cavaliers, who won it at the foul line. Cleveland made 32 of 37 free throws compared to 19 of 22 for the Celtics.   Denver has covered the number three of its five games and after a 102-99 win at Minnesota on Thursday, the Nuggets lost at Detroit last night. Wilson Chandler led the Nuggets with 21 points, and Jusuf Nurkic added 10 points and 12 rebounds. The line is too high considering Boston's injuries, and the Celtics are 1-5 ATS their last six games against teams with losing records. Play the Nuggets.
