The Milwaukee Bucks will welcome the Boston Celtics for an NBA 2025-26 regular-season clash on Thursday, December 11. Meeting for the first time this NBA season, the Bucks are seeded tenth in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Celtics have grabbed the third spot on the table. The hosts will head into Thursday’s face-off on the back of two back-to-back losses. In their most-recent matchup, they suffered a 12-point defeat to the Detroit Pistons. The game saw Kevin Porter Jr. drop 32 points, but his performance fell short against the combined scoring effort from Pistons’ starters.

On the other hand, the Boston Celtics, who have had a tough start to the current season, have seemingly managed to get themselves back on the court. They are coming off a five-game winning streak, with their most-recent victory coming over the Toronto Raptors. During the matchup, Jaylen Brown dropped 30 points, while Derrick White came up with 27 points to push the Celtics to their 15th victory of the season.

In the upcoming game, we expect the Bucks to end their losing skid, while the Celtics will hope for their sixth straight victory. But, before that, let’s dive into listed injury concerns for both teams, and how their starting lineups could look like.
