ORL has matchup advantages
The Celtics host the Magic in a full-strength matchup between two teams on winning streaks, with Boston on a back-to-back and Orlando riding a five-game win streak. Both teams have no reported absences, setting up a close contest with moderate pace and high ball movement, as both offenses have shown recent efficiency. The Celtics' vulnerability to perimeter shooting could be tested against Orlando's high-assist offense, while fatigue from a packed schedule may affect defensive intensity on both sides.

The market is probably juicing these lines because he's a name on a depleted Celtics team, but his recent production, even with minutes, doesn't support it. Fadi...
