The Boston Celtics will look to build on their great run since the All Star break, but the Minnesota Timberwolves will be the second most challenging team they have played. The Wolves will be a challenge for Boston, so it is great news that Kyrie Irving is going to be returning.
It was never thought that Irving’s injury would be serious, but everyone will be nervous when he is out. The good news is that the Celtics won their game without Irving, so the extra rest will mean this is only a positive for Boston.
