Miami @ Boston

Current Records: Miami 36-31; Boston 35-32

The Boston Celtics will be returning home after a two-game road trip. They will take on the Miami Heat at 1 p.m. ET Sunday at TD Garden. Miami will be strutting in after a victory while the Celtics will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Boston suffered a grim 121-99 defeat to the Chicago Bulls this past Friday. Boston was down 94-74 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. One thing holding Boston back was the mediocre play of small forward Jayson Tatum, who did not have his best game: he played for 38 minutes but put up just nine points on 3-for-15 shooting.

Meanwhile, Miami beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 121-112 this past Friday. Small forward Jimmy Butler and point guard Tyler Herro were among the main playmakers for the Heat as the former had 25 points and six assists in addition to eight rebounds and five steals and the latter shot 6-for-8 from beyond the arc and finished with 27 points.

The Celtics are expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Oklahoma City Thunder April 27 easily too and instead slipped up with a 119-115. In other words, don't count Miami out just yet.

The Heat are a slight 1-point favorite against the Celtics, according to the latest NBA odds.

The line on this game has moved a bit since it opened, as it started out with the Celtics as a 1.5-point favorite.

Over/Under: -110
