The Los Angeles Clippers are set to host the Boston Celtics at the Intuit Dome on Saturday, January 3, in a National Basketball Association (NBA) 2025–26 fixture. The Clippers enter the matchup as one of the hottest teams in the league, riding a six-game winning streak, while the Celtics arrive in California looking to cap off their road trip by snapping the hosts' momentum. Russell Westbrook recently claimed the top scoring spot among NBA point guards, eclipsing Hall of Famer Oscar Robertson, highlighting the elite guard play currently defining the league. On Which Channel NBA 2025-26 Live Telecast Will Be Available?

Los Angeles, currently holding a 12-21 record, sits 11th in the Western Conference but has drastically turned their season around after a dismal November. Despite their recent surge, coach Tyronn Lue’s side faces a significant depth challenge with Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) ruled out and Bradley Beal sidelined for the season with a hip injury. The Clippers are coming off a dominant 118-101 victory over the Utah Jazz and will rely on the elite production of Kawhi Leonard, who is averaging 28.5 points, and James Harden, who remains a triple-double threat every night.

The Boston Celtics, holding a 21-12 record and positioned 3rd in the Eastern Conference, are similarly shorthanded as they fight to keep pace with the top-seeded Detroit Pistons. The team is dealing with a major void in their lineup as superstar Jayson Tatum remains out while recovering from Achilles surgery. To overcome this absence, coach Joe Mazzulla will lean heavily on the offensive brilliance of Jaylen Brown, currently 6th in the league in scoring at 29.5 points per game, alongside the two-way impact of Derrick White and the sharpshooting of Payton Pritchard.

While the Celtics have historically performed well against the Clippers, Los Angeles has been rejuvenated at their new home, the Intuit Dome, winning five consecutive games in the arena.
