On Thursday, the Celtics entered the game as pregame favorites to beat the Kings by 10.5 points, but for most of the game, they battled Sacramento in a close contest with numerous lead changes. It wasn't until the fourth quarter that Boston took control, ultimately winning comfortably 120-106.
In that game, Jaylen Brown scored 29 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. He shot 11 of 25 from the field, though he struggled from beyond the arc, making only one of his nine three-point attempts. Even so, the multiple-time All-Star is still hot, having scored 20 or more points in 12 of his last 15 games.
That same day, the Clippers won at the Intuit Dome, their sixth consecutive victory, which they hope will help them recover from a rocky start that has left them with a 12-21 record. On December 28, Leonard had a superhuman 55-point night against the Pistons, which he followed up with two equally astonishing performances: 33 points in the win against the Kings and another 45 against Utah to kick off 2026.

Our Boston Celtics vs LA Clippers Prediction
The January 3 game between these teams will be in Los Angeles, but they already faced off this season on November 16 at TD Garden in a thrilling game that the Celtics won 121-118.
That was a brilliant performance from Harden, who responded with 37 points, but that same day White scored 22, Brown 33, and Pritchard 30 to claim the Boston victory. Another high-scoring game could take place on Friday.
Our prediction for Clippers vs Celtics is: Over 221.5.
