The Boston Celtics are coming from a weekend off when it faces the Detroit Pistons at the Little Caesars Arena on Monday, February 6. The Celtics vs Pistons match will have the top Eastern Conference team go against the bottom team. Also, the Phoenix Suns won against both teams in the past few days.
Although the Celtics only shot 38.7 percent from the floor, they still lost 106-94 to the Suns at home. Four of the Celtics’ previous six games have ended in defeat and been kept to under 100 points on three separate occasions.
Given that the Suns were still without Devin Booker because of a groin ailment, the Celtics appeared to be giving less than their all in Friday’s game.

Our Predictions for this Matchup
Pick: Bet on the Boston Celtics at -12
Our basketball picks for the game are the Celtics. Two games into the season, the Celtics have beaten the Pistons by a combined total of 12.5 points. Also, the high-powered Boston attack should quickly find its groove again against the Pistons’ poor defense, which ranks near the bottom of nearly all defensive metrics.
