The Brooklyn Nets will face the Boston Celtics at the Barclays Center on 24th February(USA), 2022 as the season resumes after the NBA All-Star Break
An important part of the season begins as the race to the playoffs for all the teams tighten up.
This will be a clash between two fierce rivals in the Eastern Conference who faced each other in the 1st round of last season’s playoffs. Brooklyn Nets won that series due to Boston missing out on key players due to injuries.
Brooklyn Nets:
Boston Celtics:
Jaylen Brown has been averaging 23.7 ppg and has been one of the most important players for the Celtics for many years now and he is expected to perform well alongside Tatum.
Jayson Tatum is one of the best players in the league and has been playing at that level throughout the season, coming off an all-star appearance he will be looking to pick things up from right where he left.
With Ben Simmons, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant still out for this match, scoring responsibilities will be on the shoulders of Seth Curry who has been great since his arrival at the Nets from the 76ers.
The Brooklyn Nets Rookie has been sensational and had the game of his life against the New York Knicks, where he blew them out in the 4th quarter and was praised by everyone around the world.
Although the Nets have shown some life following the trade of James Harden to the 76ers but the Boston Celtics have been playing at another level since last month and will be expected to take care of the business against an injury-depleted Brooklyn Nets.
