As the NBA pushes European expansion, this game is being played in London, England. The Boston Celtics had a tough break in losing Gordon Hayward just five minutes into the season. But the emergence of Jalen Brown, and first-round draft pick, Jason Tatum, has given Boston a huge boost, not to mention Kyrie Irving now in the fold to close out games. Philadelphia is improving, but still have a long way to go, as they are a .500 team at 19-19 on the season. Like most elite teams, Boston hit a bump in the road to go 5-6 over an 11 game stretch. Boston has found their mojo again and have notched wins in their last six contests, and their signature elite defense has held three straight opponents to the 80s. The Celtics are playing at a high level again, so play on Boston.
