🧪 SAL's Synthesis
Given the current game script, the expectations of a blowout favoring the Celtics could limit Clowney's minutes and opportunities to record assists, despite a favorable matchup narrative. The high spread of 18 points suggests Brooklyn may struggle to maintain competitiveness, which could further reduce the Nets' overall ball movement and assist opportunities. The Net EV of 0.37 indicates a slight edge but isn't compelling enough to recommend the bet confidently, especially considering the significant factors opposing it.
