The Boston Celtics have defied the typical road disadvantage this season, boasting a remarkable 10-2 record in away games compared to 11-3 at home. Their success includes multiple wins against the struggling Washington Wizards, who have only managed a dismal 2-10 at home.

Amidst the Wizards' rebuilding phase, former Celtics player Malcolm Brogdon is hoping for a trade as the deadline approaches. The Wizards' roster features several young talents, including 2024 lottery picks Alex Sarr and Carlton Carrington, as they look to improve their fortunes.
