Saturday night at TD Garden, the Boston Celtics aim for their fourth straight win. The hosts are coming off a 109-108 victory vs. the Philadelphia 76ers in a Halloween thriller in "The City of Brotherly Love." The win brought Boston to .500 after an 0-3 start to the season. It was also an NBA Cup contest.
Now the Celtics must turn their attention to Kevin Durant, Amen Thompson, and a Houston Rockets team that's 2-2 but looks the part of one of the most competitive clubs in the Western Conference.
Initially, Boston's starting backcourt, Derrick White and Payton Pritchard, were on the injury report for Saturday's matchup.
