Boston Celtics
Chicago got 77 points from Zach LaVine and Lauri Markannen over the weekend against Boston. The Celtics countered with Kyrie Irving, who scored 37, which wasn’t enough to win on the road. The Bulls took the win, 126–116.
The next day, Irving said everything would be ok “because (he’s) there.” It’s he, Kawhi Leonard and Giannis Antetokounmpo in a three-way race in the Eastern Conference, plus Philly, which has an unclear hierarchy at the point.

The Celtics are 0–2 since the break and if they lose this one, they will fall eight games behind the Raptors in the division with just 21 games remaining.
Aaron Baynes will miss this game but he could be back as soon as the day, at home, against Portland. That leaves Boston with just Daniel Theis off the bench. It could be a struggle to contain both Marc Gasol and Serge Ibaka on Tuesday.

Gordon Hayward’s lead-up to the All-Star Break was strong. He scored in double-figures in seven out of nine and had multiple assists in 10 consecutive.
He missed Boston’s first game post-break at Milwaukee and went just 2-for-6 against the Bulls. He did have three assists, two rebounds and a couple of blocks, though.
Toronto Raptors
Toronto hosted Orlando on Sunday afternoon but it was the Magic that came out victorious, 113–98. Former Raptor, Terrence Ross, led the scoring with 28 and Nik Vucevic netted a double-double.
Kawhi Leonard rested and will be ready to go at it in this one. He led all scorers with 33 points the last time these two teams met. Boston leads the regular season series, 2–1. The home team has won every game.

Of course, Fred VanVleet remains out after thumb surgery. He’s missed two weeks already and won’t return until sometime in the middle of March, at the soonest.
Orlando, which played so well on Sunday, projects for the most wins in the Southeast Division, according to FiveThirtyEight. The Magic is third in the division, in terms of future odds, though it isn’t far behind Charlotte or Miami. The Magic is catching +250 to win the Southeast.
