Oklahoma City Thunder vs Boston Celtics: NBA Live Stream, Schedule, Probable Lineups, Injury Report, Form Guide, Head to Head, January 3, 2023

The Oklahoma City Thunder will welcome the Boston Celtics to Paycom Center for an NBA game on Tuesday. The Thunder lost 96-115 in their last game over the 76ers. With James Harden sitting out because of injury management on his right foot, Tulsa product Shake Milton got the start for Philadelphia and scored 18 points. DeAnthony Melton added 17 points. Their production, along with Harris’ hot start impressed Sixers coach Doc Rivers.

“It was big for us. It set the tone. Especially the way we played last night, getting the cushion helped us,” Rivers said. “We had lost two in a row. Our team doesn’t like that. We knew we were missing guys so I think our guys had the proper amount of fear going into this game. That’s a good thing.”

The Celtics on the other hand lost 123-111 against the Nuggets in their last game. The Nuggets led by as many as 18 and waited out a long delay with 6:43 left as a crew struggled to re-level the rim after a dunk by Boston’s Robert Williams III. “I didn’t know I did it until my teammates started blaming me,” Williams said. “I’ve never done that before.”

It took six workers, two ladders, a level, phone calls and eventually a crew member taking the rim off the backboard before it was fixed. “There was no communication. They spent all that time trying to fix it but when we came back it still looked like it wasn’t even level, in my opinion. So we just wasted all that time,” Celtics guard Jaylen Brown said.
