How to watch Celtics/Raptors online - NBCSports.com

After taking care of the Raptors in Canada on Christmas Day, the Celtics welcome Toronto to TD Garden tonight at 7 and look to extend their winning streak to six.

For the first time since Nov. 9, the C's should have Marcus Smart, Gordon Hayward and Kemba Walker all available for a game. Various injuries have kept the trio from playing together for nearly two months.

It's the fully healthy Celtics duo of Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum that have been leading Boston lately. Brown had 30 points in Toronto in the 118-102 Christmas victory and he and Tatum each reached the 30-point mark - Brown had a career-high 34 - in a 129-117 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers at TD Garden on Friday. 

The Raptors come in with their share of injuries. Pascal Siakam (groin) and Marc Gasol (hamstring) didn't travel with the team to Boston and guard Norman Powell is with the team but won't play tonight, Toronto coach Nick Nurse said. 

With that in mind, here are our picks for Saturday. (All odds provided by WestGate Superbook.)

Boston Celtics at Toronto Raptors, 7 p.m., ET

Moneyline: The Celtics (-330) are on healthy, on a roll and have lost only once at home this season (13-1). Toronto is banged up and 8-6 on the road. Go with the C's.

Point Spread: The Celtics (-7.5) failed to cover as 13.5-point favorites over the lowly Cavaliers, but are still 18-9 against the spread and 9-4 ATS at home. Look for injuries to catch up to the Raptors late and the C's to cover the 7.5.

Point Total: With the Raptors lacking top defenders Gasol and Siakam, look for the C's and Raptors to go OVER the 216 number here. The Celtics have topped 110 points in each of their past four games as Brown and Tatum heat up. The two teams reached 220 on Christmas in Boston's 118-102 victory.

NBA Locks

Dallas Mavericks (-11) at Golden State Warriors: The depleted Warriors are riding a four-game winning streak, including a feel-good Christmas Day win over the Houston Rockets to emerge from the NBA basement. Look for the high-powered Mavs offense to put an end to their run. Dallas is fourth in the NBA in points per game (116.7), 10-3 ATS on the road and Luka Doncic is back in his second game since an ankle injury. He had 24 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists in return, a 102-98 win in San Antonio. 

Brooklyn Nets (+9.5) at Houston Rockets: The Nets are again without Kyrie Irving and Caris LeVert, but the Rockets are 0-4 against the spread in their past four at home and 3-7 in their past 10 as favorites. Look for Houston to bounce back from its Christmas loss to Golden State with a win but for Brooklyn to cover.
