Bobcats not favored at Boston – NBA Betting

January 15th, 2024 Live NBA Betting Lines

NBA betting odds have the Boston Celtics heavily favored at home as they host the Charlotte Bobcats on Wednesday. The Bobcats are in a tough basketball betting spot having played last night at home versus the Lakers. Here are more NBA betting numbers for this Wednesday matchup.

NBA betting trends do give the Bobcats a chance to cover the spread in this game. Charlotte has lost six of the last ten games against Boston but they are 8-2 against the NBA odds in those contests. At Boston, the teams have actually split their last four games and Charlotte is 4-0 against the NBA odds. The teams have met twice this season so far, both games in Charlotte and each team won a game but the Bobcats covered both against the NBA betting odds.

Both Charlotte and Boston are very good defensively so this could be a low scoring game in basketball betting. The Bobcats have been in the Top 10 on defense most of the season as NBA betting statistics show and that has kept them in most games. Charlotte struggles to score though and that has been a problem at times. The Bobcats are surprisingly fighting for a playoff spot but the NBA betting schedule has done them no favors of late as they had to play the Lakers last night and they have Miami on Friday.

Boston has a better offense and defense than Charlotte which is why they should win this game. They may not cover the big NBA betting number though. The Celtics are just so-so at home this season versus the basketball betting number and they are laying big points in this matchup against Charlotte. Boston has been dealing with injuries for much of the season but they are still a formidable team and should win this game against Charlotte. Covering the NBA betting odds is a question though.

The over/under basketball betting numbers are split in the last ten meetings between the two teams at 5-5. At Boston, the over/under is 2-2 in the last four games as basketball betting numbers indicate. With both teams having solid defenses this game on Wednesday could be an under.
