The Boston Celtics improved their NBA-leading record to 31-9 on Monday night at Scotiabank Arena. They did so with a 105-96 win over the Toronto Raptors, completing a 4-0 regular season sweep of Canada’s Atlantic Division opponent for the second straight year.
Now the Celtics return to TD Garden, where they are undefeated 19-0, which is also a new franchise record for the best start of the season in home games to receive the San Antonio Spurs of the phenomenon Victor Wembanyama on Wednesday, January 17th. Even with a day’s rest, there are several players who are listed as “questionable” in the injury report, and their presence on the pitch for Spurs is uncertain.
Jrue Holiday and Derrick White, who scored 22 points apiece in Monday’s win over the Raptors, are dealing with a sprained right ankle and sprained left ankle, respectively. Kristaps Porzingis is injured due to inflammation in his right knee. The 7-foot-10 center recorded 15 points, six rebounds and two blocks in the win over Toronto.
