Boston Celtics head to Crypto Arena to face the Los Angeles Clippers Monday Night.
The Boston Celtics have a poor offensive performance in Saturday’s game. They shoot the ball defectively, particularly from long range, and got a less-than-stellar showing from their bench. On the season, Boston is 4th in overall field goal percentage and Number 1 in 3pt field goal percentage. The Celtic’s defense also struggled on Saturday night; They allowed Golden State Warriors to shoot 51% from the field. Boston should see the Comeback of the first five, especially Al Horford, on Monday night’s game. Al Horford has missed the last two games due to health issues and safety protocols.
The Clippers returned home from a four-game trip of the Southeast Section tour, performing the LA Clippers moving 2-2. After defeating the Charlotte Hornets. The LA Clippers lost two consecutive games in Florida to the Orlando Magic and the Miami Heat. On Saturday night, LA Clipper’s closed out the trip with a win over the Washington Wizards, scoring 114-107. Former Wizard player John Wall scored 13 points in his first homecoming to Washington in front of the fans, while Paul George scored 36 points on the field in a trip-closing win for the Wizards.
Boston had a lousy shooting play on Saturday night and struggled on the defensive end. The LA Clippers have been one of the more fantastic defensive teams in the NBA league, and they are a powerful rebounding team. The Boston Celtics are unlikely to have two straight poorly shooting outings. They will also welcome back Al Horford, who should strengthen their offense with his capacity to move the ball and their defense, as Al Horford can get out and pass on the outside shooters. Boston’s big men didn’t leave the paint without Al Horford and allowed the Warriors. Al Horford’s return should take that advantage away from LA. The Celtics will bounce with a massive road win in this matchup.
