Live Betting Updates and Developments (10 pm Window):

UPDATE (11:18 p.m):

• The live total went up to 266.5, presenting a value opportunity for the UNDER. Given the record-setting three-pointers in the first half, a slowdown in the second half is expected.

UPDATE (10:38):

• The Celtics and Kings combined for a high-scoring first quarter, with an opportunity to bet the UNDER at 258.5 (-120) due to the unlikely sustainability of their torrid pace.

Celtics at Kings (10:10 p.m. tip):

• Best bet: Kristaps Porzingis OVER 21.5 (-110)
• Alternate bet opportunity: Celtics +6.5 (-165)
• With Jayson Tatum sidelined, the focus shifts to Porzingis, who is expected to take on a heightened offensive role. Betting on Porzingis to score 22-plus points and the Celtics to cover +6.5 is recommended.
