It’s always a big game when the Boston Celtics take on the Los Angeles Lakers.

And with the Celtics nearly back to full strength with the return of All-Star veteran point guard Kemba Walker and All-NBA small forward Jayson Tatum combining with the deadly midrange play of star forward Jaylen Brown, we may well have a classic by the time the final buzzer sounds Saturday night.
