The Trail Blazers played Toronto at home in the previous game and achieved a rare victory this season—128:118 (113:113) after overtime. Portland's best player was D'Andre Ayton, who added 19 rebounds to his 30 points. Delano Benton finished the game with 25 points, and Anfernee Simons had 23 points.

The team now has 18 wins in 63 games. Only San Antonio has a worse result in the Western Conference standings.

The Celtics went on the road after a crushing victory over Golden State (140:88). In the first game, they managed to lose a lead of more than 20 points over Cleveland in the fourth quarter—104:105. Then, the team lost in Denver to the Nuggets (109:115) and beat the Suns in Phoenix (117:107).

In general, individual match results for Boston are not now important. The Celtics confidently lead the Eastern Conference with a handicap of 8.0 wins.

Portland is not a rival for Boston right now. The Celtics have been losing either to themselves this season, like in the recent game against Cleveland, or to contenders like Denver. In the upcoming game, Boston will get a confident victory unless something extraordinary happens. We'll bet on such an outcome here.
