The Washington Wizards play host to the Boston Celtics at Capital One Arena on Sunday evening.

This marks the second game of a back-to-back for the Wizards (11-56), as they are coming off a 29-point loss in Chicago on Saturday. They fell behind early in the game and trailed by 22 points at halftime. They had no answers in the third and could not cut into the deficit the rest of the way, as they fell short for a third straight loss. Corey Kispert led the squad with 16 points, three rebounds, three steals and three blocks, in 29 minutes of action. Bilal Coulibaly followed up with 15 points, eight rebounds, two assists and a steal, while Jordan Poole chipped in 13 points, eight assists and a steal. The Wizards will look to end the slide and get back on track as they return home to kick off a four-game stand with the opportunity to improve on their, 4-26, home record.

Meanwhile, the Celtics (52-14) enter on a four-game win streak and hope to keep rolling with the chance to add to their, 22-11, road record. Unfortunately, they have been struck by injury trouble, as their top two scorers, Jaylen Brown (ankle) and Jayson Tatum (ankle) are both listed as questionable for action, while Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and Derrick White (hand) will be sidelined. The squad will have to rely on bigger contributions from the likes of Jrue Holiday, who averages 12.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 0.9 steals, and Al Horford, who averages 8.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.0 blocks per game. Sam Hauser has also shown he can step up as a solid contributor, while he is averaging 8.1 points, 3.3 rebounds and 0.9 assists on the season.
