Jazz vs. Celtics: Lineups, broadcast info, injury reports for Feb. 9
The Boston Celtics will face the final foe of their 2020-21 west coast road trip, and it is more or less the final boss of the hardest level of the season, at least based on the current standings.
That foe would be the Utah Jazz, currently standing at 19 wins and 5 losses, good enough for the best record in the entire NBA and a whole game of the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers. News that they will face the Jazz without one of their most important players is little help for a team down two of their own, but there is a real chance to come out of the five-game road trip with a winning record.
