These two playing in Boston seems to elicit high-scoring affairs as seven of their last eight regular season meetings in Boston have gone over 217.5 combined points. Those eight matchups have averaged 234.3 points.<\/p>\n<p>These are also two prolific offenses from beyond the arc, with Boston averaging the second-most made three-pointers per game, while Milwaukee has the league&#8217;s second-best three-point percentage. However, on the other end, both squads rank in the bottom 10 in terms of made three-pointers allowed per game. With both squads projected to make over 16 three-point attempts, the Over hits with plenty of points to spare. The model is projecting 226 combined points as the Over hits 62.1% of the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It also says one side of the spread hits almost 60% of the time.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/insiders\/bucks-vs-celtics-prediction-odds-line-proven-model-reveals-2026-nba-picks-for-feb-1\/#ttag=01312026_agg_cbssports_picks_basketball_nba_model_BucksCeltics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">You can head to SportsLine to see the model&#8217;s NBA picks<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So who wins Celtics vs. Bucks, and which side of the spread hits almost 60% of the time? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsline.com\/insiders\/bucks-vs-celtics-prediction-odds-line-proven-model-reveals-2026-nba-picks-for-feb-1\/#ttag=01312026_agg_cbssports_picks_basketball_nba_model_BucksCeltics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Visit SportsLine now to see which side of the Bucks vs. Celtics spread to back, all from the model that has returned well over $10,000 on top-rated NBA picks<\/a>, and find out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks tip off a 10-game slate on Sunday&#8217;s NBA schedule\u00a0in the inaugural NBA&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":455689,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[7,75,77858,77859,77860,77855,77857,77856,121,6,24770,57148],"class_list":{"0":"post-575670","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nba","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-boston-celtics","10":"tag-bucks-celtics-odds","11":"tag-bucks-celtics-picks","12":"tag-bucks-celtics-prediction","13":"tag-celtics-bucks-odds","14":"tag-celtics-bucks-picks","15":"tag-celtics-bucks-prediction","16":"tag-milwaukee-bucks","17":"tag-nba","18":"tag-nba-odds","19":"tag-nba-picks-today"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115997045668870625","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575670","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=575670"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575670\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/455689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=575670"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=575670"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=575670"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
