Utah Jazz vs. Boston Celtics: A "Points Per Game" Prophecy
By The Oracle of Over/Unders

The Boston Celtics, fresh off a 27-point home loss to the Rockets, are here to prove they’re not just a one-Jayson-Tatum show. The Utah Jazz, meanwhile, are the NBA’s version of a leaky faucet—still dripping points, but not in a good way. Let’s cut to the chase: Lauri Markkanen is the star of this show, but not in the way he wants.

The Markkanen Malfunction
Markkanen, the Jazz’s "human highlight reel," has been scoring like a man possessed this season (25.5 P/Under -109). But here’s the rub: His 51-point explosion against the Suns was a statistical fluke, and his 28-shot, 29-point dud against the Hornets? A harbinger of regression. The Celtics’ elite 3-point defense (7th in makes/game) will smother him. Take the Under 25.5 points (-109)—Markkanen’s about to go from popcorn kernel to sad, popped husk.

Derrick White’s Quiet Efficiency
While Markkanen burns out, Derrick White (19.5 P/Under -115) will methodically pick apart the Jazz’s porous interior defense. White’s 5.5 assists/game and the Celtics’ home-court dominance? A 20-point night feels likely.

Team Total: A Celtics Cakewalk
The Jazz rank 26th in defensive rating and 29th in 3P% allowed. Boston’s 114.3 offensive rating? It’ll slice through Utah’s sieve like a hot knife through butter. Fade the Over 233.5 total—the Celtics will win by double digits, and the Jazz will look like they’re playing 2K on "All-Star Difficulty."

Why It’s Happening
- Celtics’ Health: Jayson Tatum’s back, and the roster is fully fit.
- Jazz’s Youth: Ace Bailey and Keyonte George? They’re still figuring out how to tie their own shoes, let alone stop Boston’s offense.
- Home-Court Hysteria: TD Garden’s crowd will chant “WE WANT JAE!” (for Jae Crowder, obviously).

Final Score Prediction: Boston 122, Utah 101. Markkanen: 18 points, 6 rebounds. White: 21 points, 7 assists.

Prop Pick: Under 25.5 points for Markkanen (-109). The Jazz’s "stretch four" will be stretched thin.

Disclaimer: This prediction is 80% math, 20% Markkanen’s face when he realizes he’s being undered. 🏀🔥
