Leg 1: Celtics Moneyline (-230)

• Boston won the first meeting 155-104 back on Nov. 4 (Indiana was without star point guard Tyrese Haliburton, but the 51-point loss is still notable)

• Boston ranks eighth in offense (116.7 PPG) and fourth in defense (107.4 PPG)
• Indiana ranks first in offense (128.8 PPG) but is last in defense (125.9 PPG) 

Leg 2: Jayson Tatum to Score 30+ Points (-145)

• Fantastic matchup against Indiana’s league-worst defense
• Scored 30 points in just 27 minutes against the Pacers in the first meeting
• Indiana is allowing the sixth most points to power forwards this season

• Holiday is averaging a career-high 7.2 RPG this season
• Holiday has recorded at least six rebounds in six of his past seven games
