The Charlotte Hornets (19-61) visit the Boston Celtics (59-21) on Friday, April 11, 2025, at the TD Garden.
Expectedly, the Celtics have won both games against the Hornets this season by an average winning margin of 14.5 points. With the Hornets missing key players like LaMelo Ball, Miles Bridges, and Brandon Miller, expect more of the same in their third game this season.
As for the Celtics, they'll miss the services of All-Star wing Jaylen Brown, who is dealing with a right knee impingement. Other than Brown, the rest of the Celtics' rotation are available for this game as they look to ride a good momentum heading into the playoffs.
The Celtics have won 12 of their last 14 games. In that span, they have produced a 124.3 offensive rating, almost four points higher than their season average of 120.6. This team also owns the 5th-best defensive rating in the league (111.5), a testament to their commitment on both ends of the floor.
Meanwhile, it's not a surprise that the Hornets are on a five-game skid, also having lost 10 of their last 11 games. Without their top players, the Hornets don't stand a chance against Jayson Tatum and the Celtics.
