Kyrie Irving, Nets Take on League-Leading Celtics
Welcome to February! The two marquee events of the month are the Super Bowl and NBA All-Star weekend. We’re 10 days away from the Chiefs-Eagles, but until then, tune in for a pair of Eastern Conference All-Star starters facing off in the NBA. Plus, it’s another busy night in college basketball as we inch closer to March Madness.
Here’s what I’m watching today.
MUST WATCH:
Brooklyn Nets at Boston Celtics
There are always fireworks when Kyrie Irving returns to Boston. He has been outstanding to help the Nets stay afloat with Kevin Durant sidelined, averaging more than 31 points and seven assists over his last 10 games. He’ll need another big performance for the Nets to take down their division rivals. The Celtics hold a two-game lead atop in the East after their controversial win Saturday over the Lakers. This game could well be an Eastern Conference playoff preview and should be tons of fun.
