Boston, leading the series 3-2, visits Philadelphia's Xfinity Mobile Arena on Thursday, with analysts favouring Payton Pritchard to score more than 13.5 points.
Pritchard has averaged 15 points, four rebounds and five assists through five games, and scored 32 in Philadelphia after Boston squandered a chance to clinch in Game 5.
The picks also lean Celtics -5.5 after their strong record following defeats, while earlier model projections highlighted the over on 212.5 total points and big games from Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown.
