Recommended Bet and Odds <\/h2>
Recommended Bet <\/td>FanDuel <\/td>BetMGM<\/td><\/tr>
Jaylen Brown O 29.5 Points <\/td>-130<\/a><\/td>–<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>

Analysis and Rationale <\/h2>

Jaylen Brown has been leading the Celtics’ offensive charge, dropping an average of 29.3 points per game. He is shooting 50.0% from the field and 36.5% from the three-point range. Apart from it, Brown is dropping an average of 6.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game. <\/p>

In the last game that Brown played, he poured in 30 points for the Celtics on 50.0% shooting from the field and 50.0% shooting from the three-point range. In fact, in his last five appearances, he has scored 30 points or more on all occasions, including a 34+ point show against the Detroit Pistons. <\/p>

The Indiana Pacers, who had improved significantly recently with their all-around performances, have once again seen a dip. Currently, they are seeded 19th in the league with a defensive rating of 116.1, while the Celtics possess a mid-rack defensive rating in the season. Though Brown is listed as questionable, if he is cleared to play, we can expect him to drop 30 points or more against the Pacers on Monday. <\/p>

Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers Predictions<\/h2>

The Boston Celtics, after getting off to a disappointing start of the season, have shown significant improvement off-late. They have been playing great basketball and have won seven of their last 10 games. At home, they have dominated their rivals in nine of 14 games, while having won 8 of their 14 games on road. <\/p>

The Celtics are averaging 116.5 points per game, while allowing second least points at 110.5. It shows that while their defense is top notch, the 18-time champions could put effort into improving their offense. Boston is seeded third in terms of offensive rating at 121.3, while its defensive rating of 114.7 has given it 16-spot in the standings. <\/p>

Jaylen Brown is leading offense for the Celtics, while Derrick White is leading them in steals and blocks. Apart from it, their injury report looks good for Monday’s game, though Brown and Jordan Walsh have been listed as questionable. <\/p>

On the other hand, the Indiana Pacers, who had started showing improvement, are once again going through a slump. They are seeded 14th in the Eastern Conference standings with a 6-22 win-loss record. The Pacers will head into the upcoming game on the back of a four-game losing streak, with their most-recent defeat coming against the New Orleans Pelicans. <\/p>

The Indiana Pacers are scoring 110.2 ppg, second worst in the league, while allowing 118.5 ppg. They have the worst offensive rating in the league at 108.1, while with a defensive rating of 116.1, they are seeded 19th in the league<\/a>. <\/p>

Given how the Pacers are struggling on both ends of the court, while the Celtics have been playing good basketball, we expect the hosts to take a lead on Monday. <\/p>

Predictions: Boston Celtics to win. <\/strong><\/p>
