Smart Game Analysis
Boston Celtics has a 68% chance of winning the game
Despite missing Jayson Tatum, the Celtics' superior offensive depth and home-court advantage should overcome a surging Trail Blazers squad hampered by backcourt injuries.
Key Analysis
- • Celtics star Jayson Tatum is out with an Achilles injury, but Jaylen Brown and Anfernee Simons are combining for significant scoring output.
- • Portland is missing starting point guard Scoot Henderson and key defender Matisse Thybulle, severely impacting their rotation.
- • Boston ranks 2nd in the NBA in offensive rating and makes 15.8 three-pointers per game, posing a difficult challenge for Portland's defense.
- • Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija is having a breakout season averaging 26.0 PPG but is questionable with a back injury.
- • Portland enters with strong momentum having won 9 of their last 12 games in 2026.
- • The Celtics have won 4 of the last 5 head-to-head matchups, although Portland won the most recent meeting in December.
