Derrick White and Neemias Queta are listed as probable for Tuesday’s game. Queta recently tied his career high by scoring 19 points and grabbing 18 rebounds in Boston’s previous matchup. However, he missed a game for precautionary reasons and is expected to return.

On a strong note for the Celtics, Payton Pritchard delivered an impressive performance, shooting 15 of 22 and making six 3-pointers in a recent game. Jaylen Brown also contributed significantly, achieving a triple-double with 19 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists.

Knicks Key Player

New York’s Jalen Brunson has been a standout this season, averaging 28.5 points per game. He ranks 10th in the NBA for scoring, just ahead of Brown. In their previous meeting on October 24, Brunson scored a game-high 31 points as the Knicks defeated the Celtics 105-95, with Brown leading Boston’s scoring at 23 points.

This clash promises to be an exciting encounter between two competitive teams in the NBA.
