NBA action resumes this Thursday night as the Philadelphia 76ers welcome the Boston Celtics to the Wells Fargo Center. The 76ers (20-34) and the Celtics (39-16) occupy 11th and second place respectively in the Eastern Conference. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Philadelphia 76ers extended their losing streak to five matches last Thursday when they came up short against the Brooklyn Nets in a tight 100-96 contest.
Kelly Oubre Jr. and Quentin Grimes both contributed 30 points, while the team managed to convert only 43% of their 81 field attempts.
Philadelphia has struggled offensively, averaging a mere 109.1 points per game (26th overall), while a slightly improved defensive setup allows 112.9 PPG (15th overall).
Meanwhile, the Boston Celtics hold an 8-2 record in their last 10 and will look to emulate their impressive performance from last week, where they comfortably defeated the San Antonio Spurs 116-103.
Jayson Tatum continued to lead the charge with 32 points, 14 rebounds, and seven assists, while Kristaps Porzingis and Derrick White combined for 48 points and 13 rebounds.
Boston ranks in the top 10 of the scoring charts, sixth for points scored (117.2) and fifth for points against (108.1).
