Jayson Tatum leads Celtics into home matchup with Sixers

The Boston Celtics can extend their winning streak to nine games when they face the visiting Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night.

The Boston Celtics are on an impressive winning streak and are looking to extend it to nine games when they face the Philadelphia 76ers. With an average of 120.7 points per game, the Celtics displayed their offensive depth in a 116-102 victory over the New York Knicks. Jaylen Brown led the team with 30 points, and Jayson Tatum's unselfish play has drawn praise from his coach and teammates. Tatum is averaging a team-high 26.9 points per game and has been instrumental in the Celtics' recent success.

Despite Tatum's impressive performance, the 76ers have struggled with offense since losing Joel Embiid to a knee injury. They have lost seven of their last 11 games and have been unable to score more than 104 points in their past four games. Philadelphia coach Nick Nurse has acknowledged the team's need to improve their offensive organization and shot selection.

In their previous meetings this season, the 76ers managed to secure a win at home, but the Celtics have emerged victorious in their two subsequent matchups. The upcoming game will be the fourth meeting between the two teams, and it will be interesting to see if the Celtics can continue their winning streak against the struggling 76ers.
