Bulls vs Celtics Analysis

*All lines provided by DraftKings

The Boston Celtics travel to Chicago for a showdown with the Bulls in a matchup of two of the Eastern Conferences elite.

The Bulls fell a half game behind the Toronto Raptors after being defeated 127-109 at home on Saturday against the Miami Heat. The Celtics dismantled the Washington Wizards 144-102 at home on Sunday.

Both teams will come in search of a 2-1 regular season series victory after splitting games in Boston. The Celtics won 114-112 and lost 128-114. Both teams have multiple superstars who make for intriguing prop plays.

Bulls vs Celtics Team Total Props

The Boston Celtics are 7 point favorites with a total of 222, setting the Bulls team total at 107.5 and the Celts at 114.5.

Both teams have completely different identities as the Celtics are built on defense while the Bulls rely on their potent offense. The Celtic defense has taken a step back without Robert Williams III on the court.

However they have also been scoring at will recently with 124 points or more in 7 of their last 9 games. The only two games they were held under that was against elite defenses like the Toronto Raptors and Miami Heat.

The Bulls defense hasn’t been elite since Lonzo Ball was injured. They have allowed 125 points or more in 7 of their last 11 games.

Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown were both listed as questionable last but ended up playing. Both players are listed in player props so they should be all systems go.

I’m going over on the Celtics team total here, but just check to be sure that Tatum and Brown are both active.

Team Total Prop Play: Boston Celtics Over 114.5

Bulls vs Celtics Player Props

DeMar Derozan has been on another scoring tear after being quite by his standards for some time. He has led his team in scoring in four of his last five games with point totals of 37, 32, 50, 26 and 40.

Last game he scored 40 without Zach Lavine on the floor. DeRozan’s point total is set at 26.5 and Lavine is listed as probable.

DeRozan over could be a play even if Lavine plays, but if you hear Lavine is out jump all over DeRozan’s over, even if it moves a point or two.

The Derozan play is rock solid but I’ll be looking in a different direction. Without Robert Williams III the Celtics have moved Daniel Theis into the starting lineup an employed a tight eight man rotation with only Derrick White, Grant Williams and Payton Pritchard coming off the bench.

Al Horfords minutes have shot up as a direct result. He’s played 30-35 minutes in his last five games. Horford has a points + rebounds + assists line of 22.5. He has cleared that in three straight games without Williams, with totals of 24, 33 & 25.

Everyone knows Nikola Vucevic plays horrible defense and Horford has taken advantage with PRA totals of 25 and 33.

He has eclipsed this PRA total in 10 of his last 11 games against Vucevic. Horford is one of those players who contributes in all three categories and tonight’s matchup sets him up to do more of the same.

Player Prop Play: Al Horford Over 22.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists -105
