Boston Celtics (60-21) versus Charlotte Hornets (19-62) is an Eastern Conference game at the TD Garden on Sunday afternoon. The Celtics will shoot for a win in this matchup to enter the regular season with a winning record as they prepare to defend the NBA Championship. They bounced back emphatically from an underwhelming outing against the Magic to beat the Hornets 130-94 on Friday night, and completing a double will be high on their agenda.
The Hornets, on the other hand, are still reeling from their massive loss against Boston. This result highlighted their offensive struggles this season, averaging 105.3 points per game. Another defeat against Boston will mean that the Hornets will finish the regular season with a seven-game slide. They have been poor on the road this season, losing 31 of their 40 assignments. It will be a critical offseason for Charlotte.

Our Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
Boston will want to go into the postseason in scorching hot form, whereas the Hornets will want to sign off with a win against the defending champions.
However, we don’t see the Wizards getting anything from this match because Boston will want to maintain their winning form. The reigning champions will know that the challenge could be tougher this season, with the Cavaliers and the Thunder playing excellent basketball. However, we expect them to rest some key players, including Kristaps Porzingis and Jayson Tatum, ahead of the bruising playoff campaign. Our prediction for Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets: Boston Celtics to cover -12.5 spread.
