Boston Celtics and New York Knicks head-to-head record
The Boston Celtics have crushed the New York Knicks in their previous five encounters, winning four of them, with the most recent two, 131-104 on February 9, 2025, as well as 132-109 on October 23, 2024. Overall, Boston has dominated these games, with the Knicks' lone victory coming on the 12th of April 2024, when they defeated them 118-109. Jayson Tatum's scoring power will be difficult to control, and the Celtics' formidable defense may be important in reducing New York's effective offense. To challenge Boston's defense, the Knicks will rely on Karl-Anthony Towns' domination of rebounds and Jalen Brunson's ability to create moves. The Knicks could make this a lot closer game if they take advantage of their hitting accuracy and rebounding edge, but the Celtics appear set for another impressive showing based on their recent record and team statistics.
