Game Preview
The Boston Celtics will attempt to extend a four-game winning streak when they visit the Denver Nuggets on Sunday night in the first game on the 2023 calendar for each team.
Boston ended 2022 with a seven-game homestand in which it dropped the first three games — two to Orlando and one to Indiana — and then won the next four. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla missed the last two games with corneal abrasions. Damon Stoudamire filled in during Mazzulla’s absence.
“I think we just regrouped,” Stoudamire said when he was asked about the four-game winning streak following Thursday night’s 116-110 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers. “I think losing those three games in a row — it was more so humbling and I think that we knew we had to have better performances in the next four games, especially with us going on the road (after the Clippers game). So the guys responded.”
