Dallas Mavericks will square off with the Boston Celtics in the
National Basketball Association (NBA) regular season match on 26 January.
Head-to-Head
This will be the 87th meeting between the two teams in the regular season since their first game in 1980 when the Mavericks were formed.
The Celtics have the upper hand in this rivalry having recorded 46 wins compared to the Mavericks' 40 victories from 86 matches.
Most recent meeting
The Dallas Mavericks fell to the Boston Celtics losing 106-88 at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts, USA on 18 June.
Jayson Tatum led the Celtics with 31 points, 11 assists, and eight rebounds as Jaylen Brown added 21 points, eight rebounds, and six assists.
Key Players
Kyrie Irving, who is widely considered one of the best ball handlers of all time, could be the player to propel the Dallas Mavericks to a victory over his former team, the Boston Celtics.
Tatum, on the other hand, will be confident of inspiring the NBA champions to another win over the Mavericks, having joined Larry Bird as the only Celtics players with 40-point triple-doubles in December 2024.
Quotes
“You’ve got to take the good with the bad, and understand that down the road, we could be grateful for this stretch,” Tatum said after the Celtics' 119-115 defeat to the Atlanta Hawks on 19 January.
“If we continue to stick together, if we continue to be a close-knit group, if we figure it out together, we’ll feel a lot better about ourselves."
