The Brooklyn Nets have a chance to inch closer to first place in the Eastern Conference as they welcome the Boston Celtics to town.
Bad news for the Nets, they won’t have Kevin Durant in this one. Good news for Brooklyn, though, is that the Celtics will be without Jaylen Brown and Al Horford.
The Bucks are also going to be shorthanded in their matchup against the Heat. So a win and a Bucks loss can help given them a little breathing room....but that’s another story.
We’ll get our first chance to see the Durant-less Nets on Thursday night.
