The Charlotte Hornets head to TD Garden to face the Boston Celtics in the NBA on Tuesday. The Celts (53-25) are second in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Hornets (43-36) are in eighth place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Boston Celtics have been in excellent form and are now on a three-game win streak after beating the Raptors 115-101 on Sunday. They lead the Knicks by two wins and have a game in hand.
The C’s are coming together at the perfect moment. Jaylen Brown has been excellent all season, Jayson Tatum is back, and Nikola Vucevic returned in the last match. They now tank in the top four on both ends.
The Celtics have won seven of their last eight home games and are 27-11 at TD Garden this season. This is the third game between these sides this season, with the series level at 1-1.
Meanwhile, the Hornets have been one of the most improved teams in the second half of the season and are now on a four-game win streak following a 122-108 victory over the Timberwolves on Sunday.
The Hornets have had the best offence in the NBA since the All-Star break, but their victory over the Timberwolves was built on excellent defence. They are level with the Raps in sixth on 43 wins, but have played a game more.
Charlotte are now 22-17 on the road. Only PJ Hall is out for the visitors in this one.
