The Miami Heat (27-25) visit the Boston Celtics (33-18) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Friday, February 6, at TD Garden.
Boston has won both head-to-head matchups with Miami this season, including a 119-114 nail-biter in January and a 129-116 triumph in December.
It also helps the Celtics' cause that they have won their last four games, including a dominant 114-93 road win against the Houston Rockets.
Derrick White, who is averaging 18.2 points, 5.1 assists, and 1.4 blocks this season, paced the Celtics with 28 points, while adding eight assists and six three-pointers. Payton Pritchard provided a spark off the bench, contributing 27 points and 7 assists.
Another cause for optimism for the Celtics is the potential availability of big man Nikola Vucevic, whose name isn't currently on the team's injury report.
As for the Heat, they're looking to rebound after a tough 127-115 home loss to the Atlanta Hawks. In the defeat, Miami's defense faltered, allowing Atlanta to shoot 53.5% from the field and 47.9% from beyond the arc.
It was the Heat's third loss in the last five games, a lukewarm stretch of matches that encapsulates the team's on-and-off performance this season.

Our Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat Prediction
The Heat was rumored to make a big personnel change before the trade deadline, but their roster stayed the same. They've also lost three of their last five games, dampening their momentum heading into Friday.
Meanwhile, the Celtics could have their newly acquired veteran big man Nikola Vucevic available on Friday. Plus, the Celtics have won both matches against the Heat this season. Our prediction for the Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat match is: Celtics (-6.5) cover the spread.
