Celtics – Nets Tip Basketball NBA, Regular Season on Saturday, 11/22/25 at 1:30 a.m.
Brooklyn could have been the best team of all time a few years ago. But the NBA icons Durant, Harden and Irving, who were stranded in New York at the time, were never able to reach their full potential together.
Now the franchise is only a shadow of its former self, and my Celtics Nets tip assumes another heavy rubdown in the night from Friday to Saturday. Incidentally, most sports betting providers with a focus on basketball also see it that way.
Admittedly, Boston is also playing a season below its potential, but the recent upward swing and existing potential should be enough to beat this opponent for the second time in a few days.
Celtics vs. Nets Predictions:
Our Celtics Nets AI prediction outlined betting scenarios that I probably would have come up with myself after watching the C’s’ 113-99 victory in the first duel of the doubleheader.
In any case, the selection Jaylen Brown: 25+ points at odds around 1.52 on the Betano app seems to be a very safe pick indeed, if you look at his performance a few days ago.
The tricky guard converted 29 points on Wednesday and thus seamlessly continued his top performance against the Clippers (33 points).
My prediction: He should easily score a dozen baskets from the game against a lethargic defense like that of the Nets.
The selection Most rebounds: Payton Pritchard at odds of about 17.50 suggests at first glance that the German bookmakers have banished this scenario to the realm of fairy tales and legends.
It is certainly not very likely – but do you know who got the second most free balls of the game a few days ago? Pritchard, with only a single rebound less than Claxton (11).
Boston: Over 116.5 points at odds around 1.60 I also like very much as an AI suggestion. The C’s are now playing much stronger at home and have broken this mark in each of their last three victorious home games against the Clippers, Wizards and Grizzlies.
