The Celtics are coming off a 120-112 victory over the Suns. Jaylen Brown had 18 of his 41 points in the fourth quarter and Jayson Tatum scored 21 in his fifth game.Derrick White, who was presented with February's Eastern Conference's Defensive Player of the Month Award before the game, had 21 points for Boston, and Payton Pritchard scored 19.

After a Phoenix miss, Brown rebounded Tatum’s miss to give Boston the lead and then added two free throws and a short jumper to complete an 8-0 Celtics run.

The Celtics excel in fast-paced games, utilizing defensive pressure to force turnovers and capitalize on transition scoring. They can easily exceed 110–115 points when they dictate the tempo and create fast-break chances, but their offense becomes less efficient in half-court sets against highly physical defenses.

The Warriors are almost assured of ending up in the play-in round in the Western Conference, but it matters where among that foursome you finish, and they were able to end their skid against the lowly Wizards.

The Warriors rested Draymond Green, Porzingis and Melton in Sunday's loss at New York, and those three were able to help them on the second night of this back-to-back. Golden State led by 17 in the second quarter before the Wizards fought back to within two. It was 64-57 at the half.Golden State led by 15 early in the fourth before the Wizards made one more push. They could draw no closer than five.
