Despite facing the challenge of a tough schedule, the Celtics have consistently performed well. Although there is a possibility of being shorthanded with Kristaps Porzingis listed as questionable, the Celtics enter this matchup as the team in better form. Their recent nine-game streak demonstrates their status as one of the hottest teams in the league.
Facing a struggling Warriors team, the Celtics are poised to secure a win and cover on the road. The Celtics’ impressive form and overall performance make them the side to win this matchup.
The Boston Celtics have displayed an impressive offensive performance, averaging 117.6 points per game, ranking them seventh in the league. With a shooting percentage of 47.8% from the field, they hold the 11th position overall. In terms of 3-point shooting, the Celtics rank 13th, maintaining an average of 37.2% from beyond the arc.
On the other hand, the Golden State Warriors are gradually gaining momentum, seeking their third consecutive victory following a narrow 118-114 road win against the Trail Blazers. The Warriors average 115.9 points per game, placing them 13th in the league. Their shooting percentage of 45.5% from the field ranks 25th, while their 3-point shooting places them as the 14th-best team with a 37.1% success rate.
Defensively, the Warriors have allowed an average of 115.7 points per game, positioning them 20th in the NBA. Opponents are shooting 46.5% from the field against them, ranking 13th in defensive field goal percentage. In terms of 3-point defence, the Warriors are the seventh-best team, limiting opponents to a 34.9% success rate from deep. With these stats both teams are good with the ball and this will definitely lead to a high-scoring clash in this game.
Stephen Curry continues to be the driving force for the Golden State Warriors this season, leading the team with an impressive 28 points per game, which ranks him 8th in the NBA. Given his scoring prowess, achieving 20 or more points in this upcoming clash appears to be well within reach for a player of Curry’s calibre. Notably, Curry is currently averaging 4.8 three-pointers per game, marking him as the player with the highest three-pointers made per game in the NBA this season.
When facing the Boston Celtics, Curry has a track record of impactful performances. Throughout his career, he has averaged 23.7 points, 5.4 assists, and 4.4 rebounds in 24 games against the Celtics.
