The Boston Celtics will play host to the San Antonio Spurs at their home arena of TD Garden this Saturday (Jan. 10) evening for the first meeting between the two storied ball clubs this season. The Celtics will be looking to keep their recent successes moving forward vs. a team that might be the toughest out they have yet faced in the 2025-26 NBA regular season.
The Spurs will be looking to stay in the win column as well after beating a common foe of both teams at home in their last game. We are leaning towards this one being a San Antonio win by the time the final buzzer sounds, but if Boston brings their best, this one could go either way.
Records, standing, and streaks
At present, the Celtics have a 24-13 record, which puts them in the Eastern Conference standings’ second-place slot.
The Spurs are the owners of a 26-11 record, good enough for second place in the Western Conference.
What happened in the last game for each team?
Boston beat the Toronto Raptors 125-117 at home.
San Antonio beat the Los Angeles Lakers 107-91, also at home.
Injuries
