Celtics at Bulls: Live stream, lineups, injury reports and broadcast info (5/7)
The 35 – 31 Boston Celtics play the 27 – 39 Chicago Bulls as the former hope to hang on to the Eastern Conference’s sixth seed to dodge the play-in tournament while the latter simply want to fight their way back into the play-in tournament’s range. If you happen to be looking for a way to catch the action live tonight on television or a streaming service, keep reading while we get you up to speed.
The Celtics have some key injuries that will make this more of a game than it otherwise might be, while the Bulls are looking more lively with All-Star point guard Zach LaVine back in the fold.
