Boston, currently holding a 23–13 record, sits 3rd in the Eastern Conference and continues to navigate the season without superstar Jayson Tatum, who is sidelined for the year with an Achilles injury. The Celtics will also be without forward Josh Minott, who has been ruled out due to an ankle sprain. In Tatum's absence, Jaylen Brown (29.7 PPG) has shouldered the primary scoring load, while Derrick White (18.4 PPG, 5.3 APG) and Payton Pritchard (16.9 PPG) have emerged as consistent threats for a team that boasts one of the league’s most efficient offenses.
The Toronto Raptors, holding a 23–15 record and positioned 4th in the East, are also navigating significant injury hurdles as they look to pull even with Boston in the standings. While RJ Barrett has been a game-changer—averaging nearly 20 points since returning to the lineup—the team remains concerned about star forward Scottie Barnes, who is listed as doubtful due to a right knee sprain. Coach Darko Rajaković’s rotation is further thinned by the continued absence of center Jakob Poeltl (back), though the elite playmaking of Immanuel Quickley and the recent form of Brandon Ingram (21.8 PPG) provide the Raptors with a formidable perimeter attack.
