The Boston Celtics will welcome the Cleveland Cavaliers back to TD Garden for their final matchup of the 2024-25 regular-season.

Boston has won two of its three games against Cleveland, including their NBA Cup showdown at TD Garden on Nov. 19. That C’s victory marked the Cavs’ first loss after a 15-0 start to the campaign.

The Celtics enter Friday’s game 6.5 games behind the first-place Cavs in the Eastern Conference standings. They’ll look to bounce back after Wednesday’s loss to the Detroit Pistons, which snapped their six-game win streak. Cleveland has won eight consecutive games.
