What to Know
After six games on the road, the Celtics are heading back home. They will take on the Oklahoma City Thunder at 7:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday. The Celtics are strutting in with some offensive muscle, as they’ve averaged 120.9 points per game this season.
Last Monday, the Celtics strolled past the Hornets with points to spare, taking the game 118-104.
The Celtics’ success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Kristaps Porzingis led the charge by scoring 20 points along with seven rebounds and five assists. Jrue Holiday, on the other hand, was considerably less helpful: he went 0-8 from beyond the arc.
Meanwhile, the Thunder were within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Tuesday as they fell 109-105 to the 76ers. The loss hurts even more since Oklahoma City was up 57-44 with 11:48 left in the third.

However, it’s not like the Thunder (currently ranked fourth) struggle in that department as they’ve been averaging 120.2. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.
