Raptors vs Celtics Pickswise Expert Predictions

Point Spread Pick
TOR Raptors +9.5(-115)

The Boston Celtics return home on Sunday and look to extend their current win streak to 3 games when they welcome the visiting Toronto Raptors to TD Garden. Boston is 9-2 across their last 11 games, dating back to March 14 and sit in second place in the Eastern Conference standings. Meanwhile, the Raptors are entangled in an awfully close seeding race between themselves, the Hawks, 76ers, Hornets, Magic, and Heat, with just 4 games of separation between the teams. Toronto currently holds the 6 seed but needs a few more wins to close out their season in order to avoid the play-in.

The Raptors are coming off a 32-point victory on Friday over the Memphis Grizzlies and their starters should be well-rested as nobody played over 30 minutes in that contest. The spread seems too large in this game, as the Celtics are slated as 9.5-point favorites against a Toronto team with much more to play for at this point in the season. Boston has the better team for sure, but they also just clinched a higher seed and I don’t see the motivation for them in this particular game. The Raptors have been a competitive team, even in their losses, and only lost by 8 points when they last played the Celtics in early January.

Raptors vs Celtics Prediction: Toronto Raptors +9.5 (-115) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
