FULL ANALYSIS
Boston's established stars Tatum/Brown crush Charlotte's G-League roster mix highlighted by Porter Jr./Claxton but zero All-NBA talent. Model projects 112-102 Celtics win (10pt spread) with +4.2 EV on ML despite heavy favorite price. Props lean Tatum/Brown overs + Queta boards with Vucevic out; fade Hornets volume scorers into Boston's scheme.
