Thunder have Dort and Caruso to match up against Tatum and Jaylen Brown, while the Celtics boast defensive anchors like Porziņģis, Horford, and Holiday. With Thunder’s inconsistent three-point shooting and the absence of Jalen Williams, their offense may struggle, forcing them to rely on defensive intensity to avoid settling into half-court play. The total score is expected to be under 227.5.

Pick: Total Points Under 229.5 (bet365)
