Though the San Antonio Spurs are not having a great season – they sit 12th in the Western Conference with a 23-28 win-loss rate – they do have a trick up their sleeves: Victor Wembanyama. The Frenchman is one of the most exciting talents in basketball right now, so much so that he's been nicknamed "The Alien". He may be only one player, but he has the potential to really dictate how this game goes.

It's not an easy ask, however, because the Boston Celtics are of course a formidable side. The defending NBA champions have a lot of strength in Tatum and Jaylen Brown, and they're sitting on a 38 wins to 16 losses this season. They're used to big scorelines against even tough opponents, so they're nailed on favorites for this game.

However, we've seen plenty of closes scores and upsets in the NBA before, so nothing is certain, and the Spurs will be hoping Wembanyama can do something special.

Who will come out on top at the TD Garden? Here's everything you need to know to watch Celtics vs Spurs and NBA live streams.
