New York Knicks will go head to head with the Boston Celtics in the
National Basketball Association (NBA) match on 26 October.
Head-to-Head
This will be the 490th meeting between the two teams in regular-season games since 1946 when the NBA was established.
The Celtics have dominated this rivalry having recorded 300 wins compared to the Knicks' 189 victories from 489 matches.
Last Meeting
The Knicks won their ninth consecutive game as they defeated the Celtics 131-129 in double-overtime on 6 March.
Julius Randle (31 points, nine rebounds) and RJ Barrett (29 points, 11 rebounds) combined for 60 points in the victory.
Key Players
The Knicks will look to Immanuel Quickley who led the team with a career-high 38 points to go along with eight rebounds and seven assists against the Celtics last March.
Jayson Tatum, who holds the record for most points scored in an NBA All-Star game, with 55, will be keen to inspire the Celtics to a win over the Knicks.
Quotes
“I think so far, so good. I think we’re still learning and building off one another," Celtics star Jaylen Brown said ahead of the 2023/24 NBA season.
"I think the more that we get out there together and we got a lot of guys committed to trying to do the right things, trying to make the right places, trying to get each other involved.
"So as time progresses, our chemistry is just gonna build.”
