On Tuesday evening, the Boston Celtics will be in California to face off with the Sacramento Kings.   

For the game, they will have one of their best players in the starting lineup, as All-Star forward Jaylen Brown is listed as available on the injury report.   

The former Cal star is in the middle of another fantastic season with averages of 26.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.2 steals per contest in 60 games.   

He is also shooting 49.0% from the field and 34.0% from the three-point range.

Brown helped lead the Celtics to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2010 (last season). 

This year, they have once again been among the best teams in the league.  

The Celtics enter Tuesday night as the second seed in the Eastern Conference with a 49-23 record in 72 games. 

They are just 2.5 games back of Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks for the first seed. 

Over the last ten games, the Celtics have gone 5-5, and they are 23-14 in the 37 games they have played on the road away from Boston. 

As for the Kings, they are the third seed in the Western Conference with a 43-28 record in 71 games. 

They are 7-3 in their last ten games and an outstanding 21-14 in the 35 games they have hosted on their home floor in Sacramento. 

The franchise hasn't been to the NBA Playoffs since the 2006 season, so this is their best year in over a decade.
