Miles on a hardship exception before Monday's game after adding forward Justin Jackson on a day deal last week. The Celtics split their first two meetings against the Cavaliers this season, both of which were played in Cleveland. Garland scored 22 to lead the Cavs in a victory on Nov.
With all of the absences, the Celtics will have the clear talent advantage in this game. The Cavaliers have played more team basketball and less as individual players on the same team. Because of this, the Cavaliers should keep the game closer than expected, although I expect the Celtics to win the game.
The two games between these teams this year have been a Cavaliers win and a Celtics win. Both affairs have been low scoring and sloppy offensively. I am going with the Celtics moneyline here.

The Celtics got some good news on the injury front with a clear injury report on Tuesday. Dennis Schroder ankle and Robert Williams illness will return after missing 1 and 2 games respectively. Jaylen Brown, who has been questionable for the past 3 games is once again questionable.
For the Sixers, only Ben Simmons personal is listed as out. He has yet to suit up for the Sixers this season. However, Grant Williams has been playing very well on both ends of the court and Coach Udoka may decide to keep him in the starting lineup and bring either Al Horford or Robert Williams off the bench. One of the reasons Philly wanted to sign Horford was because he had been so effective in guarding Embiid so we may see that match up in this game. Embiid is the focal point of the Sixers offense.
The Celtics signed 40 year old Joe Johnson to a 10 day contract and he should be available for this game. In addition, Isaac Okoro is listed as a game time decision also due to health and safety protocols.

Marcus Smart vs Darius Garland Garland is averaging He is shooting The Celtics need to limit his scoring and also his ability to get the Cavs into their offense.

He has a height advantage over Jaylen Brown, but Brown is more athletic and can play with more physicality. Keys to the Game Defense - Defense is always a key to winning games. Defense is especially important for the Celtics who have been struggling with their offense at times.
