The Boston Celtics (40-20) visit the Milwaukee Bucks (26-33) in an NBA 2025-26 matchup on Monday, March 2, at Fiserv Forum.

Boston and Milwaukee have split their two head-to-head encounters this season, with each team securing a win on home soil. The Bucks notched a 116-101 triumph in December, while the Celtics responded with a convincing 107-79 victory in February.

However, the Bucks have stumbled recently, losing back-to-back games. They're coming off a 120-97 loss to the Chicago Bulls, where they shot a paltry 36.8% from the field. Moreover, the Bulls' defense forced the Bucks to commit 19 turnovers.

Veteran big man Bobby Portis came off the bench to produce 18 points in the loss. Milwaukee will continue to miss the services of superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is still recovering from a calf injury.

On the flip side, the Celtics are coming off a solid 114-98 win over the Philadelphia 76ers at home. Their excellent defense forced the Sixers to a poor shooting night, with Philly star Tyrese Maxey only hitting 35.3% of his attempts.

Neemias Queta had one of his best performances, hauling down a double-double performance of 27 points and 17 rebounds. 

Same with the Bucks, the Celtics will also be without their top gun Jayson Tatum.
