Celtics vs Pelicans Prediction:
Kick-off Time: Thursday, 12.01.2023, 01:40 CET.
Prediction: CJ McCollum Under 25.5 Points
Odds: @ 1.86
Bookmaker: BET365
This is a terrible match up for CJ specially when his two star players are not playing in this game. The defense is going to be forced on him because he is going to be the best player on the Pelicans side and last time they played each other he had 18 points and he even had Ingram next to him and was at home. We are liking this spot here.
