The Boston Celtics are set to face the Utah Jazz on Friday, March 21, at the Delta Center in Salt Lake City. The game will begin at 9:30 p.m. EDT and will be available to watch on NBC Sports Boston. The Celtics, who are the current NBA champions, have been performing well. They have won three consecutive games and hold a record of 50-19. Boston has secured a playoff spot and is likely to be the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference. They are seven games ahead of the New York Knicks and six games behind the Cleveland Cavaliers. On the other hand, the Jazz are struggling this season with a 16-54 record, which is the second-worst in the league. They recently snapped a ten-game losing streak with a win over the Washington Wizards, the only team with a worse record.

Lakers coach JJ Redick expressed confidence in Bronny’s potential as he continues to gain experience in the NBA.
