Boston Celtics vs Los Angeles Lakers Preview

Returning home from a seven-game road trip, the Los Angeles Lakers will host the Boston Celtics at STAPLES Center on Thursday night. This is the second and final regular season meeting between these teams, with the first going the way of the Lakers 96-95 on January 30. However, it’s important to note the now-absent LeBron James and Anthony Davis contributed 48 of the Lakers’ total points on that night. Nevertheless, the Lakers have still performed admirably without the superstar duo recently, winning six of their last 10 games, including a 101-93 victory at Charlotte on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Boston has won its last four games, the most recent of which came at Portland by a 116-115 scoreline behind 32 points from Jayson Tatum.
