Celtics Host Warriors in NBA Finals Rematch
The Warriors have had a busy week. They spent Tuesday at the White House being honored for winning last year’s NBA Finals, and now tonight head to Boston for a rematch of that series with the Celtics.
That headlines what should be a busy day in the sports world. We’ve got a big Premier League match this afternoon, a Big Ten college hoops doubleheader in the evening and more action from the Australian Open all night.
Here’s what I’m watching today.

Golden State Warriors at Boston Celtics
The Celtics own the NBA’s best record and are starting to run away with the Eastern Conference, holding a four-game lead over the second-place Bucks. Boston is certainly holding up its end of the bargain for a potential NBA Finals rematch, but the Warriors have work to do to get back to playing for the Larry O’Brien Trophy in June. The Dubs have had a very up-and-down season. But the return of Stephen Curry last week has certainly helped. Curry had 41 points in a win over the Wizards on Monday and may need another big night if the Dubs want to outduel Jayson Tatum and the Celtics tonight.
