Why the Celtics can cover

Boston is missing its leading scorer, but the Celtics have a deep pool of talent to utilize against Philadelphia. Jaylen Brown is off to a tremendous start in 2020-21, averaging 25.8 points and 5.8 rebounds per game, and he is flanked by an elite defensive force in Marcus Smart. In addition, the Celtics have All-Star guard Kemba Walker back in action after an injury-related absence, and he will put pressure on Philadelphia's perimeter defenders.

As a team, Boston grades out as above-average in both offensive and defensive rating, including a top-tier offensive rebound rate of 29.2 percent. The Celtics also create havoc in the form of turnovers, forcing a giveaway on 14.9 percent of possessions this season, and Boston ranks in the top six of the NBA in both blocked shots (6.0 per game) and steals (9.0 per game).

Why the 76ers can cover

Due to the absence of Tatum, Philadelphia is the more talented team in this matchup. Joel Embiid is an All-NBA force, averaging 25.0 points and 11.5 rebounds per game with elite defense, and he is joined by top-tier players in Tobias Harris and Ben Simmons. Harris is averaging 19.1 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, with Simmons defending at an elite level and averaging 12.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game.

Philadelphia can also take solace in some clear weaknesses for Boston, including a 15.5 percent turnover rate that ranks near the bottom of the NBA. The Celtics are also below-average in both defensive rebound rate (73.0 percent) and free throw rate, paving the way to increased efficiency for the 76ers at home.

Prediction

76ers 113, Celtics 108

Sixers Celtics Stat Line

Money line (ML)

The 76ERS (-190) beat the Celtics on Wednesday night by eight points, but expect this game to be a tad closer. Boston will still be without SF Jayson Tatum, but PG Kemba Walker has returned to the lineup and that gives the Celtics more scoring options.

The 76ers should win this game as they have now won three of their last four contests. But this is a heavyweight fight on Friday night that is must-see TV.

Against the spread (ATS)

The 76ERS -4.5 (-110) are the smart play against the spread as well in this game, given it's only two baskets. Philadelphia has now covered in three of their last four games against divisional opponents. You could certainly go either way here, but the 76ers appear to be the sharp play on Friday night.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 222.5 (-110) is the right play here as the Celtics won't have their leading scorer on the floor. Both defenses are allowing just over 110 points per game and we know these divisional games can tend to be a bit of a slugfest. Take the Under here as both teams could struggle to score more than 110 points.
