The Oklahoma City Thunder visit TD Garden on Wednesday night to face the Boston Celtics in a potential NBA Finals preview. This clash features the Western Conference’s top two seeds.
Oklahoma City enters the contest with a league-best 57–15 record and a scorching 12-game winning streak. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is currently on a historic run of 132 consecutive games with at least 20 points. With the return of Jalen Williams to the rotation, OKC aims to sweep the season series.
The Celtics arrive at 47–24, holding the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference. Boston is looking to bounce back from a tough home loss to the Timberwolves on Sunday. All-Star Jaylen Brown has been carrying the offensive load, averaging 28.5 PPG. Jayson Tatum continues to find his rhythm after returning from an Achilles injury.

Head to Head
The Oklahoma City Thunder lead the 2025–26 season series 1–0 following a thrilling 104–102 victory on March 12. Historically, the Celtics lead all-time regular-season series 79-69.
Prediction
While the Celtics are desperate for a home win, the Thunder are currently the most efficient team in the league. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is going to be a massive defensive challenge even for an elite stopper like Derrick White, and the return of Jalen Williams gives OKC too much secondary playmaking. Expect a high-level defensive battle, with the Thunder’s interior efficiency and SGA’s late-game heroics securing their 13th consecutive victory.
Score Prediction: Thunder 112 – Celtics 105
