Michael Porter Jr. Points Prop is currently Over/Under 23.5 (-115/-115).
Key Factors
Favors Over
The Nets check in as the 9th-best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 5 games on their home court (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore produce additional chances for scoring and assists).
Favors Under
In terms of scoring, the Nets's lackluster 107.9 points per game measures as the lowest in the NBA this year.
This year, the opposition's starting PFs have totaled 14.5 points per game (2nd-fewest in the NBA) against the Celtics, designating this as a tough matchup for offensive effectiveness.
The least up-tempo tempo offense in the NBA over the last 15 games has been the Brooklyn Nets.
The Celtics have played at the slowest pace-of-play in the league this year, which should decrease possessions for the Brooklyn Nets.
The matchup vs. Boston is a difficult one for getting to the free-throw line; opposing starting PFs have attempted a lowly 3.1 free throws per game this year when the Boston Celtics are the visiting squad (8th-least in the league).
