The Boston Celtics take on the Dallas Mavericks at TD Garden in the NBA on Sunday night. The Celtics are unbeaten at home this season, and our prediction is that they will extend that record in this match.
The Boston Celtics are in great shape this season, 10-2 from their first 12 games and now aiming for a fifth consecutive win after beating the Raptors 98-93 on Wednesday.
Excellent defence has been key to the C’s early-season success. They are third in defensive efficiency and are conceding the fewest PPG in the league (103.1), while also top six in offensive efficiency.
Boston are 5-0 at home this season and have won eight of their last 10 games against this opponent. The hosts have no injuries reported for this match.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks have had a mixed start to the season, 7-6 after their first 12 games and looking to avoid a third straight loss after going down 127-117 to the Cavaliers last night.
Kyrie Irving was the standout performer last night, draining seven three-point attempts on 16 attempts. Still, as a team, the Mavs shot just 41% from the field and made 4 of 14 attempts from the three-point line.
Dallas are 2-4 on the road this season. Dereck Lively II, Max Christie, and Daniel Gafford are out for the visitors.
