The Boston Celtics secured a victory against the Orlando Magic in their recent game at home with a score of 128-111. This win marked their 13th consecutive victory at home since the start of this season.
It’s second to the start of the 1957/1958 season when the Celtics won 18 consecutive home games in the regular season.
Currently, the Celtics lead the Eastern Conference standings. In 24 games this season, Boston has suffered only five losses and is on a four-game winning streak.
It’s worth noting that the Celtics will face Orlando again in their next game, scheduled for tomorrow, December 17th, starting at 21:00 Central European Time.
Kornet, who head coach Joe Mazzulla said during Friday’s pregame media availability that the former told him he expects to be out for about a week, remains sidelined.
Banton is the only other player on the Celtics’ injury report. He’s considered questionable due to the non-Covid illness he’s dealing with.
