We return to a full-on slate of nine NBA games for tonight’s Friday night action. The first contest will take place when the 15-15 Indiana Pacers travel up to Boston to take on the skidding 15-17 Celtics at TD Garden.
Celtics Get The Edge Against Indiana
Boston has just lost three straight games but, in spite of their recent woes, the Celtics are listed as 3.5-point home court favorites for tonight’s action. Oddsmakers have put the moneylines at Boston -155 and Indiana +130 with the Over/Under for the game now at 219.5, according to Unibet.
Even though the 16-17 Toronto Raptors have just lost two games in a row, their chances are good to get back on track tonight. They host the hapless 11-19 Houston Rockets at the Amalie Arena in Tampa, where the game is being played tonight due to COVID-19 restrictions. The Raptors are 8.5-point home court favorites with the Over/Under at 221.5. Oddsmakers have the moneylines at Toronto -375 and Houston +295.

Miami To Tangle With The Jazz
The Miami Heat have been on a roll to the tune of four straight victories.
