The Kings will continue their road-trip to Boston this Saturday after a 121-119 win over the improving Wizards in Washington. Fox continued his good season with 28 pts and 7 assists, he also has a nice matchup against Boston. But defensively, the Kings generally struggle as they give up 120 pts per game and they’ll need to be better against the likes of Tatum and Brown from Boston.<\/p>\n
The Celtics have hit another form slump with 3 losses in their last 4 games, which includes a very disappointing 117-110 loss to the struggling Cavaliers. However, they were missing Kemba Walker in that clash and he’s expected back for this one. As mentioned, the Kings give up plenty of points to most positions so we’re expecting the Celtics to get back on track here.<\/p>\n
Games involving the Kings are usually played at a high pace, which should see the Over salute. The Over is 11-5 in their last 16 games and the Celtics also have a 5-2 Overs record at home.<\/p>\n

But they’ll face a much tougher test on the road to Memphis. The Warriors could also be without Steph Curry who’s doubtful with a tailbone injury. James Wiseman is already a confirmed out as well. So Draymond Green will be the key in this matchup if Curry can’t suit up.<\/p>\n The Grizzlies will be confident on their home court after beating the Heat 89-85 in their latest outing. The victory stopped a 3 game losing streak and it was a good team effort considering noone really dominated in the low scoring affair with the Heat. Golden State’s weakness is around the rim against big centres so look for Valanciunas to enjoy a favourable matchup in terms of points \/ rebounds.<\/p>\n The injury status of Steph Curry is the major factor to consider in this game. At this stage, he’s doubtful to play so we have to back the home team to get the job done.<\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/strong><\/p>\n The Grizzlies have a good home record recently with 5 wins in their last 6. Since 2019, the Warriors are 2-2 at this venue.<\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/strong><\/p>\n This is the first meeting of the season and the Warriors are 6-4 in the last 10 meetings.<\/p>\n
