The Chicago Bulls would aim to regain their best form at the home arena of the United Center when they host the Boston Celtics for an exciting NBA contest tonight. The playoff berth looks almost confirmed for the Bulls.
However, they have failed to perform as per their standards in recent games. With only 3 regular-season fixtures remaining, they will look to end the season on a positive note and start the playoffs with confidence.
The Boston Celtics would want to secure an away win and improve their chances of finishing the season as the table-toppers of the Eastern Conference by going ahead of the Miami Heat. They have looked absolutely ruthless in the last game against the Wizards.
The Celtics will be ending their season by road trips to Chicago, Milwaukee, and Memphis. The team’s head coach Ime Udoka reflected on the challenge ahead after his side’s victory in the last fixture. Udoka said:
“It’ll be a great test. This all kind of leans into going into the playoffs, and it’ll keep us sharp and focused.”
There are no new injury concerns for both teams. Lonzo Ball is expected to miss the next game as well for the Bulls. The Celtics will be missing Robert Williams III for the upcoming clashes.
