The 51-19 Boston Celtics make the trip to Oregon's Moda Center to face the 32-39 Portland Trail Blazers for their second game of their longest and penultimate road trip of the NBA's 2024-25 regular season this coming Sunday (March 23) night.
The Celtics look to extend their current win streak to 4 games while perhaps getting a few players some rest for the looming 2025 NBA Playoffs. The Blazers, on a 4-game win streak of their own, will likely continue to make a late push for a play-in spot after recent success hints it is on the table. Boston ought to win this tilt easily if they take Portland seriously, but the Trail Blazers have recently beaten teams as good as the Denver Nuggets and Memphis Grizzlies.
Let's take a look at player health for both teams, likely starters, and how to watch or stream the game.
For the Celtics, Jaylen Brown (knee) and Xavier Tillman Sr. (knee) are out, and Jayson Tatum (knee) and Kristaps Porzingis (illness reconditioning) are questionable.
For the Blazers, Deandre Ayton (calf) and Robert Williams III (knee) are out, Jerami Grant (knee) is doubtful, and Donovan Clingan and Anfernee Simons (illness) are questionable.
