Through 3 Quarters

The Brooklyn Nets came in underdogs but currently have the Boston Celtics on Upset Alert. Sitting on a score of 93-85, the Nets have looked like the better squad out there today, but there's still one more quarter to play.

Power forward Kevin Durant (21 points) has been the top scorer for Brooklyn. Kevin Durant does need to be careful, however, as he is in foul trouble with four. Shooting guard Seth Curry is also in foul trouble with four.

The top scorers for Boston have been power forward Grant Williams (17 points), power forward Al Horford (16 points), and center Daniel Theis (15 points). Al Horford has also picked up four fouls, though. Daniel Theis has also picked up four fouls.

Boston has lost 79% of the time when they were down heading into the fourth quarter this year, so this one seems just about wrapped up

What to Know

After a few days' rest for both teams, the Boston Celtics and the Brooklyn Nets will meet up at 7 p.m. ET April 20 at TD Garden. The Celtics should still be riding high after a win, while Brooklyn will be looking to right the ship.

Boston is hoping for another victory. They escaped with a win on Sunday against Brooklyn by the margin of a single free throw, 115-114. The score was all tied up at the break 61-61, but Boston was the better team in the second half. Among those leading the charge for them was small forward Jayson Tatum, who had 31 points and eight assists.

Boston is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Detroit Pistons Feb. 16 easily too and instead slipped up with a 112-111. In other words, don't count the Nets out just yet.
