The Boston Celtics (16-11) head into a Saturday night road game against the Toronto Raptors (17-11) with Eastern Conference positioning on the line. These teams are in third and fourth place in the East standings going into Saturday's NBA action and both teams will try to get a statement win in this matchup. Before tip-off from Toronto, you can find my thoughts on this game, including my Celtics vs Raptors prediction.

The rest advantage for the Raptors should help them to get a win at home in this contest. The Raps should be able to get a third win in a row, as they have responded nicely from their exit from this year's NBA Cup. I'll take Toronto to win this game on the moneyline as a slight underdog against an Atlantic Division opponent.
